About the Opportunity

Grubhub is stepping into a bold new chapter, redefining our brand and the way we show up in culture. We\'re evolving from a familiar food delivery name into a brand with attitude, personality, and unmistakable point of view. We\'re looking for a Designer who thrives in fast-paced, startup-style environments—someone ready to shape this transformation with big ideas and fearless creativity.

This role calls for a strategic and conceptual thinker—someone who can take a brief and push it further, crafting ideas that challenge convention and connect with people in unexpected ways. You\'re hands-on with design but comfortable leaning into ambiguity, using your sharp eye for detail and storytelling instincts to bring big ideas to life.

You\'ll concept, design, and execute across a wide range of touchpoints—social, digital, video, and campaign—while collaborating closely with a multidisciplinary team. This position is based in our New York or Chicago office (2-3 days a week in-office, hybrid schedule).

Develop highly crafted design across digital marketing touchpoints that drives engagement

Collaborate across teams and disciplines, building strong partnerships internally and with external vendors.

Present work with clarity, confidence, and purpose—communicating the strategic thinking behind your creative.

Embrace ambiguity and move fast, adapting to shifting priorities while keeping the bar high.

Mentor and inspire fellow creatives, helping shape a culture of curiosity, craft, and creative bravery. Bring a solutions-oriented mindset and a drive to improve processes and efficiencies across the team.

What You Bring to the Table

4-6+ years of experience in design—whether agency, studio, or in-house—with a focus on concept-driven, cross-channel work.

A portfolio that showcases strategic thinking, conceptual range, and impeccable craft.

Mastery of Adobe Creative Suite and Figma (motion or After Effects experience a plus).

Strong sense of typography, color, and composition.

Experience art directing for video and photo shoots.

Excellent presentation and communication skills.

A pulse on food culture, pop culture, and the evolving creative landscape.
