Emergent Method is seeking a dynamic graphic designer to support all aspects of creative design, strategy, and production for the firm’s wide range of clients and internal needs. This individual will play an integral role on Emergent Method’s creative services team by collaborating internally with other designers, web developers, and content strategists, as well as externally with clients to understand their needs and produce high-quality deliverables. This is a full-time position with a flexible location, including hybrid, remote, or on-site work in Baton Rouge, LA. Remote and local candidates are encouraged to apply.
The ideal candidate has a strong foundation in visual and graphic design and is eager to learn from our innovative team of creative professionals; is self-motivated and takes proactive ownership over work products; is adept in completing deadline-based assignments in a fast-paced environment; and has strong organization skills to manage competing priorities.

We’re just as serious about developing our team and fostering a supportive, encouraging environment as we are about doing quality work for our clients. Our team shares a vision of being singular, unequaled, and extraordinary. While being a part of the Method often means going outside of your comfort zone, leaning into discomfort, thinking outside of the box, and being part of a collaborative and dynamic team, it will ultimately lead to unparalleled personal and professional growth. You’ll catch us hanging out on the weekends, having monthly happy hours, throwing great office parties and events (both virtual and in-person), and planning a variety of after-work get-togethers because we enjoy being around each other.
Whether in our Baton Rouge headquarters, or working remote throughout the U.S., we’re constantly communicating, chatting on Slack, and staying as connected as ever – no matter where we are. We are committed to our employees the same way they are committed to us, and we trust our team to get the job done, whether in the office or working from home.
