About Saylor

Saylor is an entertainment-led creative agency built for brands that want to earn attention, not interrupt it. Founded by former Netflix and Disney marketers, we exist at the intersection of culture, storytelling, and strategy, bringing the sensibility of entertainment to brands ready to act less like advertisers and more like creators.

Saylor exists to help brands become the show - not the ad break. We watched agencies keep making ads in a world where people want to be entertained. We started Saylor to change that: To help brands act like creators, not corporations. To think like publishers, not advertisers. To stop chasing attention, and start earning it.

We’re a tight‐knit crew who collaborate without ego, stay curious, and always show up for one another. We foster a supportive space where diverse perspectives are celebrated, hierarchy never blocks great ideas, and everyone is empowered to jump in, solve problems, and push creative boundaries together.

Position Overview

Saylor seeks a social-forward, entertainment marketing obsessed Graphic Designer to execute high-quality creative projects with a high level of design expertise. This role requires a professional who can seamlessly integrate sophisticated design solutions with strategic marketing objectives, grounded in an existing brand system. The ideal candidate will have exceptional social instincts, a solid understanding of brand identity, and the ability to work both collaboratively and autonomously.

The Graphic Designer will work closely with Saylor’s Sr. Designers, Art Director, and Associate Creative Director to manage the day-to-day design needs of specific agency clients. You will be responsible for building visually compelling content using an asset library, building and pitching artistic directions internally, and executing comprehensive design needs for campaigns. You will work across platforms, art styles, and a diverse set of client needs. We are looking for a passionate designer who is able to communicate effectively and foster a positive work environment.

About You

You are a design fundamentalist with a social-first filter. You have a deep appreciation for the "rules" of a brand system but know exactly how to bend them to make a post feel native to a specific platform. You have a strong eye for layout and typography, and you take pride in the details that make a design feel premium. You are a fast, iterative thinker who can look at a library of assets and quickly see how to combine them into something fresh and engaging. You thrive in a collaborative environment where ideas are shared freely, and you are always looking for ways to elevate the visual voice of the brands you work on. You are self-motivated and comfortable taking a project from a loose concept to a polished, final deliverable with minimal hand-holding.
