Marketing

AVP, Associate Creative Director

We help local businesses get more customer calls without becoming marketing experts.
At Olly Olly, we've learned that building a website is just 10% of the solution. The other 90% (Google Business Profile optimization, managing your online listings, maintaining social presence, monitoring competitors, and preparing for AI search) is what actually determines if potential customers find you, trust you, and contact you instead of your competition.
Unlike web designers who disappear after launch or agencies that operate like black boxes, we build and maintain everything your business needs to be found online while showing you exactly what's working through daily insights that take 2 minutes to check.
What makes us different:

We handle your complete online presence, not just a website
Real-time transparency: see what we're doing and why it matters
Competitive intelligence: know when rivals make moves and what to do about it
90% autopilot, 10% guided action (no overwhelm, no mystery)
Future-proofed for AI search (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity)

Whether you're in professional services, home services, retail, or growing a franchise, our mission is the same: empower your business to achieve durable growth through simplicity and clarity, turning everyday actions into sustainable results without requiring marketing expertise or dedicated time.

Olly Olly

**About the Role **

We are looking for a **Product Design Manager ** to lead our product design team at Olly Olly. This is a player-coach leadership role — you are responsible for design outcomes, not just design output. You will spend the majority of your time managing and elevating the work of your team, with roughly 20-30% of your time contributing directly as a designer yourself on high-priority work.

Design at Olly Olly should be practical, fast, and thoughtful. We want someone who sees AI as part of the design workflow — not a side tool — and who can help the team use LLMs and prototyping tools to move faster, think more clearly, and test ideas earlier, while still maintaining a high bar for craft, usability, and clarity.

You will report to our CPO and work in close partnership with engineering and product to ensure great design ships — not just great mockups.

**Three Direct Reports **

- UX/UI Product Designer (in-app)

- UX/UI Product Designer (in-app)

- UI/Web Designer (marketing and brand-adjacent)

-

**What You Will Own **

- Day-to-day management of a three-person design team — running design reviews, unblocking work, giving direct feedback, and raising the bar on quality

- The design system and visual language for our core product, ensuring consistency across every screen and interaction

- UX flows, wireframes, and prototypes for new features — from early problem definition through to production-ready specs

- Design QA — making sure what gets built matches what was designed

- Improving how product, design, and engineering work together — ensuring design is involved early in problem definition, not just UI delivery

- Collaboration with engineering and product on sprint planning, roadmap prioritization, and tradeoff decisions

- Darko's output across UI and web — reviewing his work and ensuring brand and product design stay visually coherent

- A culture of prototyping and early validation — pushing the team to test ideas before they are fully built

**How You Will Spend Your Time **

- 60-70% — Managing the team: reviews, feedback, career development, process improvement, and cross-functional coordination

- 20-30% — Hands-on design: contributing directly to high-priority or complex features where your execution adds the most value

**What Success Looks Like **

- Design is involved earlier and more effectively in product development

- Product experiences become more intuitive, cohesive, and outcome-oriented

- The team ships faster with better alignment across product, design, and engineering

- Design quality rises across the product — not just within isolated features

- The design team becomes a force multiplier for product strategy and execution

**What We Are Looking For **

- 6+ years of product design experience, with at least 1-2 years managing or formally leading other designers

- An exceptional eye for design — your taste shows up in your portfolio, your feedback, and the standards you hold your team to

- Strong product thinking — you understand user flows, information architecture, and how design decisions connect to business outcomes

- Experience designing and shipping B2B SaaS or workflow-heavy products

- Experience building or maintaining a design system in a fast-moving product environment

- Proven ability to ship — you have a track record of moving work from concept to production without losing quality

- Active use of AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or similar in your design workflow

- Fluency in Figma and modern design tooling

- Strong communicator who can translate design decisions into business rationale for non-design stakeholders

- Comfortable in a growth-stage environment where priorities shift and you need to make good decisions with incomplete information

**Nice to Have **

- Experience designing for SMB audiences or home services markets

- Background in SaaS or digital marketing platforms

- Familiarity with web and marketing design in addition to product

**About Olly Olly **

We are a $25M ARR company helping thousands of home service businesses get found, get calls, and grow. Design is central to how we deliver value — both in our product and how we show up in the market. This is an opportunity to own a small but high-impact design team at a company that is scaling fast and investing in getting the product right.

**Portfolio Required **

- Please include a portfolio with your application. Applications without one will not be considered.

- We want to see product design work — UX flows, shipped features, design systems — not just visual polish.

- Show us your thinking, not just the final output.
