Brand & Marketing Designer

Brand & Marketing Designer At Element451, we're building the AI platform that moves every student forward. Our platform takes action across the entire student journey, from prospect to success, so colleges and universities can deliver better enrollment and student outcomes.
We have two product lines, Element AI CRM and the Bolt Agent Platform, and a team of 120+ people around the globe. We're backed by a $175M investment from PSG to scale our mission.
