Many voices.
One purpose.

Pivot is home to those unafraid to challenge conventional thinking. Our points of view vary, but we share a deeply felt purpose: to leverage the power of design to move people toward wellness.

No ego. Plenty of attitude.

Pivot is fiercely independent. We reject big-agency bureaucracy, ego, and BS. Instead, we focus our energy on ideas and relationships that accomplish amazing things—together. Passion fuels our conviction and urgency. We believe deeply in what we do, and welcome everyone to join the ride.

A culture built on trust.

Trust is the defining characteristic of the Pivot culture. The more we trust each other, the further we can push what’s possible in our work. Trust inspires us to honor each of our talents and give each other our best. Trust guides every aspect of what we do. As we hope you’re getting, trust is a really big deal.

Passion

Curiosity

Nimbleness

Grit

Candor

Committed to diversity.

As one of the industry’s few woman-owned branding and design agencies, Pivot has long been a champion of inclusion. From our hiring practices to mentoring a new generation of diverse creatives, we make space at the table for many voices and perspectives.

What we offer.

Health, dental, vision, unlimited PTO, hybrid work, professional growth, snacks—it’s all here. We make it a priority to take great care of the Pivot team. We’re proud of our high retention rate, and love celebrating each anniversary for the many who choose to call Pivot home year after year.

Take a closer look.

Up next: you.

Now that we’ve told you a bit about us, let’s hear about you. We’re always looking to meet talented, passionate people. Our next opening could have your name on it. Get in touch!
