Visual Designer

At Picnic, we’re revolutionizing the way people buy groceries with our innovative and sustainable app-only service.

We do almost everything in-house, developing cutting-edge technologies and processes to make grocery shopping simple, fun, and affordable for everyone. Our team is passionate about making a positive impact on society and the environment, and we’re always looking for talented people to join us on our mission.

At Picnic, the customer engagement and loyalty within the domain in online groceries is unprecedented. This gives us unique opportunities to shape meaningful communications and build lasting relationships with our customers. The Consumer team is responsible for doing just that: telling Picnic's story and for building meaningful relationships with Picnic's customers.

As a Visual Designer, you will join a team of designers, analysts, communication coordinators, store managers and copywriters from the start of a communication initiative until we reach our customers' doors. Our goal is to design the most engaging campaigns that directly speak to (potential) customers and ensure all our assets across multiple channels are in line with our brand. You will 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 become better at shaping our communications to their needs.

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

Tricks of the trade

• Build engaging campaigns: Collaborate with business stakeholders to build campaigns that engage our existing/future customers. From original concept to final asset creation.

• Weekly visual design work: Create and update email campaigns, social media assets, online ads and campaign visuals for our app.

• Champion Picnic's visual identity: Ensure brand consistency across multiple channels and help shape the future of our visual identity.

• Develop a design analytical approach: Adopt an overall analytical approach to design by testing and validating your designs either through user test or A/B testing online.

• Cross-team & cross-country collaborations: Work and learn from experienced designers, analysts and business stakeholders internationally (the Netherlands, Germany & France).
