Quick Summary of the Role
We're looking for an eager Graphic Designer with superb design chops with proficiency in Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. You will add to our small (but mighty) JoshTalks team and play a large role in representing our campaigns visually as a whole.
What will you do as a part of this role?
• Design, design, design. Be a chameleon, jumping from digital to print and back without skipping a beat
• Work with different teams on social media campaigns, newsletters, motion graphics, thumbnails, and advertisements
• Be able to tell our brand story through creative execution
• Manage multiple projects, juggle deadlines and deliverables
Requirement for the Role
• Education: Preferably in a design-related or creative field
• Experience: 1-3 years of graphic design experience, preferably from an agency background. Have a strong hold on Adobe software like Photoshop and Illustrator.
• Designer: You have an eye for living and breathing the brand's aesthetic, color, typography, icons, and use (or non-use) of space. You understand and accept that a brand's identity is king. You can process consumer research and aggregated data on existing content to make better-informed decisions on every project thereafter. You keep your finger on the pulse of design. You're constantly seeking ways to create useful, usable, and delightful new experiences as well as innovate our existing presence.
• Communicator: You understand the importance of being able to both brainstorm with the wider team as well as articulate your individual design decisions. You’re all about efficiency and are able to work in a fast-paced environment and rely on strong communication skills to keep on task & flag project inconsistencies. You are always accountable for your own tasks but not afraid to ask for help when needed. You are proud of your work but humble in your role. You can take criticism and put it towards bettering your work while giving constructive feedback that empowers your team.
• Problem Solver: Your solutions take creative perspectives while successfully communicating to our consumers through visuals. The work you create is timeless, easy to digest, and full of smart messaging. You're motivated by our company mission and eager to help people create healthy habits
