THANK YOU
FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION
I think this is a very exciting opportunity, because Contour Education is a successful brand with ambitious goals for the future, and I’ve got proven experience building or elevating a company’s visual identity, style guide, and brand systems that you’re looking for.
I was particularly drawn to the part of your job description that speaks to “mentoring, guiding, and setting the design standard as Contour grows” – because I’m keen to work more collaboratively in the next phase of my career.
I also feel we’re entering a new era in design, and every industry will be impacted by the introduction of AI, and I’m keen to learn new skills and be part of a team that’s taking advantage of new developments and tools.
I’d love the chance to discuss this position further, and help make Contour an even more trusted brand for students and families nationwide.
