Description

THE ROLE & THE TEAM Look, we know the stereotype. Mention an "outlet", and people picture endless rows of discount racks, uninspired banners, and generic sale badges. But Lounge by Zalando operates differently. We are actively redefining off-price retail, subverting expectations for what a shopping app can be. To do that, we need a Senior Designer who can elevate a routine promo into a cultural moment – someone who truly understands the grid before they break it. Working side by side with Creative Direction, Art Direction, and Copy, you will build bold typographic systems, motion assets, and social designs that make people stop scrolling. The goal? To make them think, “Wait, an outlet did that?” ABOUT LOUNGE BY ZALANDO Lounge by Zalando is an online outlet for fashion and lifestyle products in 25 European countries. We offer our members daily, time-limited sale campaigns with discounts of up to 75% off the recommended retail price. However, Lounge by Zalando is so much more than discounts. Our strength lies in our focus on fashion: from sought-after labels to niche brands, from famous international names to trendy luxury brands, we make sure to meet the fashion taste of all our customers, who are always on the hunt for the best products at the best prices. Working with our brand partners, we're pioneering innovative supply-chain and production processes and offer them an impactful and smart solution, creating a new way to shop for fashion - and a new way to sell it. Our motto: Not your average outlet. https://www.zalando-lounge.de INCLUSIVE BY DESIGN At Zalando, our vision is to be inclusive by design.
