Imagine waking up each day excited for work, knowing your words, support, and ideas help shape the futures of design learners across the globe. If you're a passionate communicator who thrives in both structured systems and creative writing and who is curious about how great design improves lives, then we have an exhilarating opportunity for you at the IxDF (Interaction Design Foundation)!

We're now looking for an Admin and Support Specialist who's also ready to grow: someone who will start by supporting our members through written communication and internal operations, and who will gradually step into the world of design content and course creation.

Join us, and you won't just be changing jobs—you'll be elevating your career on a global scale. At IxDF, we're not just a company; we're a movement dedicated to making high-quality design education accessible to everyone, everywhere.

With team members and learners from over 100 countries, your role at IxDF will have a worldwide impact. From engaging with diverse cultures to contributing to a platform that reaches millions, your daily activities will be anything but ordinary.

Your place in the IxDF Universe

Collaborate with our Editorial Team on a variety of writing and editorial ad-hoc projects related to design.
Correspond daily with members and prospective learners across multiple channels—email, chat, and social media—providing quick, accurate responses to their questions. You'll troubleshoot issues, offer guidance, and ensure a seamless user experience.
After a few months, we'll help you upskill so you can help create world-class educational materials and adopt a design mindset—in the form of highly engaging articles, design templates, portfolio activities, videos, and much more. This will allow you to participate in the editorial processes and transition into the editorial team so you can create courses for tens of thousands of learners worldwide.
Maintain and improve documentation by ensuring that our knowledge resources are up-to-date, easy to access, and provide value to both our internal teams and learners. Your work will directly contribute to helping others succeed.
Shape internal processes that directly impact engagement and key performance indicators (KPIs). You'll analyze workflows and recommend improvements to help us provide even better services for our members.
Update our internal knowledge base and contribute to department-wide initiatives focused on knowledge sharing. You'll ensure that important insights and best practices are easily available to all, driving continuous improvement.
Communicate and collaborate effectively with other teams to relay customer needs and insights. By sharing valuable feedback, you'll help us maximize retention, improve member satisfaction, and drive growth.
Embody our values as you are often the first point of contact for our community. You'll play a key role in welcoming and supporting members, helping our foundation grow and strengthen through meaningful interactions.
Take full accountability for your tasks, managing your responsibilities with independence and self-discipline. You'll consistently deliver high-quality results, meet deadlines, and maintain focus while balancing multiple priorities with minimal supervision.

Do You Share the Vision of IxDF?

People don't just buy our courses; they invest in a better version of themselves and a life they truly love. That's why every sentence we write, from a support message to a course description, must do more than just inform. It must reflect what we believe in as a brand, and speak to the heart of our learners.

Show the dream outcome: Help people imagine a future of creative, meaningful work, freedom, fulfillment, flexibility, and impact through great design.
Strengthen belief in success: Build confidence through real stories and practical examples. People should feel, "If they did it, I can too."
Overcome barriers: Write in a way that's simple, human, and motivating. No jargon. No overwhelm. Connect and lead the way.

Your writing won't just explain, it will inspire, energize, and support. Whether it's a member support email, a help article, or a piece of educational content or a video, your words will give our members clarity and confidence in our IxDF brand.
