In a nutshell

At Picnic, we're always looking to create the best shopping experience for our customers, by making it as easy as possible to find the right products, while also inspiring them to try something new. At the design level, there is the continuous challenge of the small design space, as everything must fit in a small screen. The Store team is responsible for doing just that: improving the shopping experience, telling Picnic's story and showing the right campaigns at the right time, to make sure customers stick.

As a Visual Designer, you'll join a team of Designers, Store Managers, Promo Coordinators and Copywriters. Together, we shape Picnic’s campaigns that play a vital role in showcasing our assortment and driving conversion. The deliverables include all visuals for a promo campaign in-app, from the start of a communication initiative until go-live. You think along with the design briefs, develop campaign visuals and help shaping Picnic’s visual identity. Each project, we aim to learn more about our customers and the commercial success of our campaigns.

Note: this is not a UX/UI design job.
