If you are an energized, mid-career graphic designer who wants to be totally hands-on within a rapidly growing, mission-oriented startup, please email your resume and a link to your portfolio to careers@supportiv.com with the subject line: Lead Graphic Designer. Applications submitted via LinkedIn are unlikely to be reviewed.

Supportiv is a peer-to-peer mental, emotional, and social support service that helps people with their everyday life struggles. Supportiv’s peer support chats (and resource referrals) are anoymous, available 24/7/365, at 1/10 the cost of therapy, for true accessibility. The service enables users to cope with, problem-solve, and heal from their struggles in a user-friendly, practical, tactical way, outside the confines of the broken US mental health system.

We’ve already been the go-to emotional support for 1.8 million unique individual users, and we’ve partnered with marquee clients including Fortune 50 employers, multiple national health plans, EAPs, Hospital Systems, Medicare, Medicaid, Universities, and High Schools.

We recently refreshed our brand (check out our new website!), and we are looking for a proactive, passionate designer to lead us forward, implementing and leveraging our new look across multiple channels.
