Designer, Graphic Designer, Creative Advertising ​/ Marketing

Job Description

Social moves fast, and the best ideas in the feed don't look like they took long to make, whether they took five minutes or five days. As a Designer (Social), you have a bias towards making things: hands-on, fast, and unafraid to work scrappy and nimbly when the moment calls for it, whether that's a full Premiere edit or a quick turn in Cap Cut.

You bring high design craft to a medium that rewards speed, instinct, and range: motion, video, photography, graphic design, whatever the platform calls for. You're not just keeping up with trends. You're the one spotting the shift before it's obvious, and turning it into something remarkable before anyone else does.
