About Logistis for Designers At Logistis for Designers, we specialize in empowering creative entrepreneurs by providing tailored financial services that help design businesses thrive. We believe that numbers don’t have to be intimidating — especially when you have a friendly, knowledgeable team by your side. Our mission is to simplify financial management so designers can focus on what they do best: creating beautiful spaces, products, and experiences. Position Overview As a Client Manager at Logistis for Designers, you’re more than just a financial liaison — you act as an extension of each client’s design team.

As an advanced accountant, you’ll also serve as the go-to expert for complex accounting questions from both your team and clients. You provide guidance, solve problems, and ensure financial integrity across all deliverables. In addition to overseeing financial operations, you will be responsible for identifying and recommending opportunities to upsell our services to existing clients based on their evolving business needs. This consultative approach ensures clients receive the support they need while contributing to overall company growth.
