Senior Web Designer

20 MILLION. As our Senior Web Designer, that is how many people get to see your work, every month.

AskMen is offering a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reshape how the majority of men's lifestyle content is viewed online, on mobile devices, tablets, and pretty much every other screen out there. We are looking for someone who believes in creating great products, can think innovatively and is an inspired leader that is not afraid of a challenge. In fact, you live for this challenge. This is an opportunity to take your career, and our product, to the next level.

You are full of ideas that you carry through. You need to share your perspective, ideas and different way of thinking, and rally people around it. You live and breathe web design, and UI/UX is second nature.

We are based in the exciting Plateau area of Montreal, with a young and vibrant staff, and this is a chance for you to show what you're made of.

AskMen is an equal opportunity employer with great benefits. And as much espresso as you can drink.
