Meet the Team: Graphics
Today, we are introducing our Graphics Team:
The Graphics Team consists of seven team members from different nationalities and professional backgrounds, with six currently working from the HQ in Munich, and one fully remote.
“Our team is part of the Content Production team within Marketing, and we are responsible for maintaining our brand’s CI. Our goal is to ensure that all content we create is coherent, inspiring, and matches our brand’s blueprint. We strive to make all graphics from Westwing beautiful, working on everything from digital to print materials, social media to packaging, providing creative ideas and assets for all marketing departments. We deliver over 200 assets per week, working in up to nine different languages, and providing content for all other countries.
We work with all the different departments inside our Marketing Department, from Performance Marketing to Business Development, Influencer Marketing and PR, and the Social Media team.”
We asked two team members what they love about their job:
Lena, Senior Graphic Designer: “I’ve been at Westwing for 2.5 years and love the variety in our creative tasks. I enjoy working with so many different teams at Westwing and creating aesthetic and inspiring content, from digital to print. As the main DRI for Paid Social Media, I have the opportunity to grow my creativity. Working in such a great team keeps my motivation high and inspires me every day.”
Marie Christin, Graphic Designer: “I started at Westwing in January 2022 — new job, new me. My daily tasks vary a lot between different kinds of design projects, which is really great! Every team member receives all kinds of requests, so we have a steady mix of project types and it never gets boring. But my favorite kind of projects are definitely the editorial ones, where I usually have a lot of creative freedom and can try out new things on a broader scale, as these tasks are normally bigger and follow a concept. What I love about Westwing are the people — everyone is absolutely friendly and supportive, and most of the people I’ve met here have become great friends. I also appreciate the communication — whether it’s within our team or across the entire business, everyone is always informed about everything crucial to their work, their company, and anything else that’s relevant. Additionally, everyone has the opportunity to share their thoughts about commercial topics and how they feel personally at Westwing, and what could be improved to enhance their experience working here. Furthermore, there are many insight sessions and skill-building series offered, so we can continually work on our professional skills. Within our team, we also update each other on trends and new topics in a bi-weekly meeting, so we always stay on top of what’s hot in the digital world.”
Thank you, Graphics Team, for the sneak peek into your daily work!
