Senior Design Manager - Growth

Growth design at Mercury requires a unique range of thinking. Our Growth teams work across the entire journey people take with Mercury—from discovering us on the web to becoming a customer, finding value in the product, and bringing others along.

We’re looking for a Growth Design Manager to lead design across this portfolio, managing a team of designers working across Conversion, Activation, and Virality.

In this role, you’ll:

• Lead and develop the designers working across Mercury’s Growth organization, providing context, coaching, and feedback
• Partner with Product and Engineering leadership to shape Growth strategy and high-leverage opportunities
• Help teams move from intuition to learning by using experimentation, customer insight, and business results
• Raise the quality bar across a broad set of experiences, from Mercury’s public web presence through conversion, activation, and virality
• Create clarity across ambiguous problem spaces and determine where design can have the greatest impact
• Build the systems and operating practices that allow Growth Design to scale without becoming mechanical
• Grow the team thoughtfully and maintain a high bar as the organization expands

You should:

• Have experience leading and developing high-performing product or growth designers, including coaching senior designers through ambiguous work
• Have a track record of using design to drive measurable business outcomes without sacrificing customer experience
• Be an excellent design thinker with strong visual and product judgment
• Be comfortable moving between leadership modes (strategic partner, critique, organizational clarity, and hands-on execution)
• Care deeply about developing people, setting a high bar, and giving direct feedback
• Be curious about why people behave the way they do and how to understand customers rather than just staring at a funnel
• Be comfortable operating independently in a fast-moving environment
