Edit and export creative across video, static, and mixed-media formats

Manage projects from concept through final delivery

Partner with marketing and content teams to support campaigns, brand storytelling, and audience growth

Develop content aligned with acquisition and communication initiatives

Contribute ideas and execution for modern, engaging social content (not outdated corporate fluff)

Balance multiple projects across digital, social, and campaign-based work

Ensure all creative aligns with brand standards and campaign goals

What They're Looking For

2+ years of experience in graphic design, social media content, or digital creative

Strong ability to concept, create, and execute content independently

Experience with short-form video (Instagram Reels, etc.)

Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc.)

Experience with video editing tools (After Effects or similar is a plus)

Solid understanding of social media platforms and content trends

Ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment

Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate cross-functionally

High attention to detail and ability to bring ideas to life without hand-holding

Ideal Background

Experience in consumer-facing or brand-driven environments

Exposure to marketing, advertising, or digital campaigns

Comfortable working in a hybrid team environment

Someone who can both think creatively and execute quickly

Why This Role

High visibility within a growing marketing function

Opportunity to own and shape real content (not just tweak templates)

Mix of strategy, execution, and creative freedom

Strong team already in place, this is an additive role, not a cleanup job
