The job

We're looking for a Visual Design Lead to shape the creative direction of visual design at Flo and guide two high-performing teams within our User-Centric stream. 

This role is perfect for someone who can elevate visual storytelling at scale — combining design excellence with strategic thinking, AI fluency, and strong cross-functional collaboration.

You’ll be responsible for the visual evolution of key audience segments and product areas, acting as both a hands-on designer and a creative mentor. 

You’ll build a culture of experimentation and excellence while connecting design outcomes to real business impact.

Your Experience

Must have:

  • Proven experience in a visual design leadership role — you’ve led, motivated, and retained top talent in fast-paced environments.
  • A strong portfolio showcasing emotional, engaging visual work across user journeys — ideally within a product or app environment.
  • Track record of delivering high-impact visuals at scale, with speed and precision — while navigating editorial, legal, and medical reviews.
  • Strategic thinking: you connect the dots between brand, user needs, and product objectives.
  • A collaborative mindset and the ability to lead complex, cross-functional projects with empathy and structure.
  • Strong organisational and communication skills — you can facilitate, present, and pitch to stakeholders at every level.
  • Comfortable using visual performance metrics to refine and optimise work.
  • Proficiency in AI tools and how to prompt effectively — you know how to create engaging, on-brand assets fast.
  • A growth mindset: you’re open to feedback, actively close your knowledge gaps, and help others do the same.
  • Ability to lead through ambiguity with calm, focus, and forward momentum.
  • Deep understanding of how app-based visual design differs from other mediums like web or print.
  • Tooling: Figma, Miro, Jira. 

Nice to have:

  • Experience in a product-led company or consumer app environment.
  • Experience working with health-related content.
  • Familiarity with Agile environments.
  • Tools: Looker, Contentful.

What you'll be doing

You'll be responsible for:

  • Leading a talented team of visual designers - in-house and freelance -, setting clear direction, and ensuring high-quality output across all visual touchpoints.
  • Driving concept development, delivery, and performance for visuals across our high-profile and revenue-driving audience segments.
  • Championing design performance — using data to inform iteration and connect visuals to engagement and retention metrics.
  • Collaborating closely with Product Managers, Content Editors, UX Research, Medical, Legal and Design to bring user-centric, emotionally resonant visual solutions to life.
  • Rolling up your sleeves when needed — this is a player-coach role.
  • Leading ideation sessions, critiques, workshops, and team rituals to foster creative thinking and cross-functional alignment.
  • Raising the team’s AI proficiency — testing and leveraging a variety of AI tools to enhance and scale creative output.
  • Acting as a strategic voice in the wider design organisation — helping shape visual principles, rituals, and design systems.
  • Owning the implementation of Flo’s visual strategy at an audience segment level — aligning every design decision to Flo’s broader product and brand vision.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
