• Follow existing brand guidelines and templates to ensure consistency across all outputs.
• Incorporate feedback and edits with speed, precision, and attention to detail.
• Deliver organized, production-ready files that meet technical specifications.
• Work closely with the creative and project management teams to hit tight deadlines.

Qualifications:


• 3+ years of production design experience, ideally within a creative agency or high-volume production environment.
• Strong, demonstrated skills in web design and motion graphics

Working Hours:


• We anticipate 15-20 hours per week.
• You will attend weekly Design Standup meeting [currently 10:15am Eastern] and Design Feedback meetings [can adjust timing to ensure works for all]
• Otherwise, flexible schedule, but must be available during key business hours (10am-5 EST) for team coordination.
• Opportunity for long-term collaboration or full time employment based on performance and company needs.
