Designer

We’re looking for a Senior Designer to join our social-savvy team of creative extraordinaires. If this sounds like you, then we were meant for each other! You are immersed in all things design and you sweat the pixel-perfect details (and we love you for it). You’re as comfortable animating as you are talking about why Papyrus is a travesty. You love the challenge of coming up with and executing the best creative solution for any given problem, and you have no hang-ups about collaborating with senior staff to produce engaging content according to a variety of briefs, or providing feedback to a junior team member who needs an extra set of eyes. You’ll be expected to explore and start mastering a strong point of view in design and be able to explain your choices to other people on your team (and to the client). Your daily tasks will include social asset creation from start to finish, animation, video editing, presentation layout, concept mockups, and photo editing. You get the technical stuff (design best practices, new techniques, and new platforms) and you get the non-technical stuff (people and what drives them, no matter who they may be). Sound like you? Let’s meet up!
