Wealthfront is looking for a Producer to help facilitate, manage, and improve the workflow of our rapidly growing creative and marketing teams. Wealthfront is a pioneer in automated investing and money management, and we believe our marketing should be as intelligent, as innovative, and as welcome in people’s lives as our product.
Combining skills in project management, strategic thinking, and entrepreneurial leadership, you’ll partner with Creative Directors and Marketing leads to orchestrate every aspect of our process from start to finish. From tentpole brand awareness campaigns and product launches to hard working paid social ads to growth marketing experiments, you’ll be at the center of our work, establishing and maintaining project plans, managing vendor contracts, tracking progress, and removing obstacles for the team to ensure we deliver category-defining work on strategy, on time and on budget. And you can do all this because you can see — and solve — problems before they arise.
Reporting to the Executive Creative Director, this role is ideal for a Producer who is excited to deliver impact by not just optimizing the throughput of the team, but by finding the opportunities to make the people they work with better through better processes, high expectations, and an empathetic understanding of their capabilities and needs.
Creative at Wealthfront
At Wealthfront, Creative is much more than ads. We are innovative, strategic, and detail-oriented, and we impact all parts of the business, from helping at every phase of the product development process to driving new, deeper connections with our clients to — yes — producing ads, webpages, and all sorts of marketing deliverables.
Creative at Wealthfront helps to define problems, find new opportunities and deliver solutions. We use data, insights, psychology, empathy, and humor to connect the often dense world of finance to the lives that our clients actually lead, and we find new, innovative ways to not just make the complicated comprehensible, but to make it kind of actually a little bit fun.
We’re a remote-first team and open to candidates in the US.

• Managing the kick-off, review and delivery processes for the creative team, both internally and with cross-functional stakeholders
• Identifying and driving process improvements to enable us to get best-in-class work done more smoothly to increase and scale the impact of our team
Prioritization Planning

• Advocating for great creative work, including advocating for the time and resources necessary for work to meet the high bar we set for ourselves.

About Wealthfront
Wealthfront started with the ambition to transform the investment advisory business, with the goal to unlock access to high quality investment advice for millions who were underserved by the traditional institutions. We built one of the first automated investment products that allows you to invest in a personalized portfolio of thousands of companies in seconds for a remarkably low fee. We then expanded. We now work with partner banks to offer exceptional banking features through a Wealthfront Brokerage Cash Account, which makes it remarkably easy for people to automate their finances end-to-end and eliminated the hassle of money management, all of which resulted in attracting more than $70 billion of our client’s hard earned money, pioneering the robo-advisor category and transforming the broader industry. And yet, we have a long way to go to achieve our mission to build a financial system that favors people, not institutions.
Wealthfront’s vision is to make it delightfully easy to build long-term wealth on your own terms. This vision is more relevant than ever because millions more people are getting into the market early and investing their hard earned savings in a handful of stocks. While this is a great way to start, it is inconsistent with building long-term wealth. We want to empower young investors to expand their horizon, and easily explore and execute on a wider range of investing strategies, make informed investment decisions that are consistent with their values and beliefs while also making it effortless to grow and compound their savings exponentially in a way that’s transformational to their lives and their long-term future.
