Overview
Our mission: To change the way the world shops, so that customers and merchants get more for what they have. A little about us: Purple Dot allows shoppers to treat themselves to items they really want, without hunting for discount codes or rummaging through sales racks. All we ask in return is patience, shoppers typically wait for seven days while we confirm the discount with the retailer. We call this new way to shop 'non-instant shopping'. For retailers, non-instant shopping opens the opportunity to convert more shoppers in a shorter timeframe than a traditional sales cycle while maintaining control of what volume to sell at a discount. The founders, John Talbott and Madeline Parra are serial entrepreneurs — having sold their previous startup Twizoo to Skyscanner in 2017. Purple Dot is backed by leading US and Europe VCs and angel investors including Connect Ventures, Tiny.VC, Paul Forster — founder of Indeed.com, and Alex Roetter — previous SVP of Engineering at Twitter. We work in a lovely office with free drinks and snacks and have a desk here just for you. We offer a friendly and flexible work environment. A little about you: We're looking for someone to help bring the Purple Dot brand to life. To take an existing brand identity and then translate throughout our website, partner websites, social, marketing materials, and through graphics. You'll have experience designing for the web (and sometimes not for the web) using existing brand visual and verbal identity to create web layout and graphics. Someone who understands how to put together a consistent brand image through multiple mediums and build up a design language. Most importantly, someone who wants to have fun and move fast What You'll Do: Work 2-3 days per week in London, we are flexible with how you want to split the time over the week. Work with founding team on iterations of our consumer (www.purpledotprice.com) and b2b web products. Take an established brand identity and product requirements and produce responsive, dev ready, website layouts and graphics. Use our existing brand identity to build out the Purple Dot design language. Work with the founding team on sales collateral (presentations) to tell the story of Purple Dot. Design engaging emails to communicate with customers of the status of their order. Design newsletter templates to engage our newsletter subscribers.
