Meet peach

peach is an innovative, new brand with a mission to inspire women to be their most beyoutiful. Here is how we are achieving our mission:

• We bring women better fitting, more thoughtfully designed basic and intimate apparel in the privacy and comfort of their own home.
• We provide women with the opportunity to be entrepreneurs and to lead their own peach businesses (we call them personal stylists).
• We are revolutionizing the lingerie industry.

At the heart of our innovation is a commitment to technology and design that enables us to take the powerful personal elements of social selling, combine them with the ease and convenience of strong e-commerce, to create a personal commerce experience. In January 2014, we raised an initial round of funding from Atlas Ventures and NextView Ventures and have seen great early success. peach is headquartered in Waltham, MA and we currently have over 90 personal stylists in 6 core geographies.

Are you our next designer?

This role is a tremendous opportunity for an ambitious, talented designer who wants to hit the ground running, be part of building a brand from the ground up, and join a talented and collaborative Marketing and Tech team.

The goal of the designer is to establish the conceptual and stylistic execution for projects, features and campaigns in conjunction with Marketing, Sales, and Tech teams. This includes brand identity, web, interactive, social, tablet, mobile screens, print, corporate event graphics, and marketing collateral. The role combines graphic and UI design to meet our visual needs. We are hiring for either a Designer or Senior Designer; in both cases, this role will be responsible for supervising a design intern. We expect this role and the team to grow as we do.
