Web Designer (Part-Time, Remote)

What We’re Looking For
We are looking for a design-focused Web Designer who can take structured content and turn it into clean, modern, and on-brand web pages.

This is not a strategy or copywriting role. All content, structure, and direction are provided. Your role is to bring it to life visually, building pages that are easy to read, visually appealing, and aligned with the client’s brand.

If you enjoy building websites, care about how things look and feel, and want to focus on execution without the pressure of strategy or client-facing work, this is a strong fit!

We are Luminate Local, a fully remote digital marketing company based in Minnesota, working with small businesses across the United States.

We help clients improve their online visibility through websites, SEO, and digital marketing.

We provide clear direction and detailed project information, while keeping the workflow practical and efficient. We focus on doing good work, communicating well, and supporting long-term client relationships.
