What Is Employee Growth Rate & Why Is It Important?

Human Interest is on a mission to ensure that people in all lines of work have access to retirement benefits.

Social Security, our nation’s retirement safety net, is projected to be insolvent as soon as 2035, making employer-sponsored 401(k) plans the primary retirement savings vehicle in the U.S. Nearly half of all working Americans are not saving enough for their future because they are employed by a company that doesn’t offer a retirement plan. Human Interest is changing that by making it affordable and accessible for small and medium sized businesses to offer employees a path to financial independence through retirement savings.

Our values are the guiding principles we use to build solutions for plan administrators and participants. They reflect our point of view on what’s important and what’s right:

In it for customers, autonomous & accountable, outcomes driven, inclusive collaboration, and decisive.

Design helps our users through one of the most important — and longest — journeys of their lives: the path to financial security. From in-product graphics to intuitive iconography and illustration, design is a key tool to guide our users through what can otherwise be tough, hard-to-navigate decisions. You will be responsible for bringing a high bar of quality to the look and feel of digital experiences and how they’re represented across platforms.

• You will be at the forefront of major design and brand initiatives across Product and Marketing.

• You will work closely with our partners in Marketing, Sales, Product, Ops, and beyond to define and align our creative work with company-wide business initiatives while ensuring cohesive execution across all brand touch points.

What you bring to the role

• You have 5+ years of experience shaping and developing visual systems for brands and digital products, including collaborating across multiple teams/stakeholders.
• You’re a self-starter with an inclination to take initiative and ownership of assigned projects and initiatives, and drive for results.
• You’re an inspiring communicator that represents creative work, builds trust and influences alignment of our creative vision across the organization.
• You have a strong ability to provide clear creative direction and lead both designers and agencies through the creation of impactful work.
• You have exceptional visual design expertise and strong working knowledge of the fundamentals of brand development: typography, layout, color, information visualization and brand systems.
• You have a strong ability to prioritize work across short and long-term projects.
• You have a portfolio featuring examples of best-in-class creative solutions that you’ve led and developed (please link a personal website or portfolio and don’t forget to include your password!).
• Deep knowledge of design tools Figma, Sketch, Adobe Suite, etc. Bonus points for experience working with platforms like Unbounce!
