Our community is at the heart of what we do, and we put a colossal effort into serving them as best we can. That’s why we’re looking for a talented and hard-working Member Support Unicorn who has an eye for detail, an empathic nature to help people and a natural drive for perfection.
We’ve already helped more than 125,000 graduates around the world to improve their skillsets and careers. But something is missing. And we think it could be you!

- The chance to impact the lives of tens of thousands of designers around the world and put smiles on their faces as you ease their learning journeys.
- To vastly improve your written communication skills, as well as your ability to help other people.
- To feel the glow of gratitude of the people you help.

Alongside providing support to our community, you’ll find huge potential to enjoy growing into other job roles if you’re hungry to develop yourself professionally. In fact, you can see this role symbolized nicely in our logo: We revolve around growth—for our members and for ourselves.
