We are seeking a versatile Associate, Digital Experience Designer to join the Martech & Digital Infrastructure team in the Wealth Management Marketing team, supporting both the Private Wealth Management (PWM) and Goldman Sachs Ayco (Ayco) businesses. This is a hybrid design and execution role, sitting at the intersection of UX design, webpage authoring, email design support, and conversion testing implementation where you’d be supporting the full digital experience lifecycle across PWM and Ayco.
