Do you love turning complex data into simple, visually striking stories seen by millions?

Are you passionate about the intersection of design, data, and narrative?

At Visual Capitalist, the global leaders in data storytelling, we are currently hiring three (3) new data-driven graphic designers.

We’re open to a range of experience levels , as long as your portfolio demonstrates strong data storytelling instincts and great visual taste.

About Visual Capitalist

For 15 years, we've fused art, data, and narrative together to visualize the insights that matter, and the megatrends that affect us all.

And in that time, our visual data stories have received over 1 billion views, and acclaim from leaders and decision makers around the world.

Expanding Our Team

We're looking to build out our original content team, which collaborates with researchers and editors to create the data stories that we publish on the Visual Capitalist website and social channels.

The ideal candidates have proven experience in the medium of data visualizations, and can absorb new information quickly, distilling it in a way that is visually compelling yet easy to understand.

Overall, this is a varied and fast-paced role with ample opportunity for self-direction, creative freedom, and career growth.

We’re looking for designers who bring both craft and judgment . Specifically:

• Taste: In an AI-driven world, taste is becoming the biggest differentiator. You can create visuals that are intuitive, punchy, and aesthetically strong.
• Data Thinking: You’re comfortable working with data and understand how to turn it into a clear story.
• Innovative: You’re always experimenting with new visual approaches and formats.
• Adaptable: You thrive in a dynamic environment and can shift priorities or styles when needed.
• Efficient & Detail-Oriented: You balance speed with a strong attention to detail.
• Growth-Minded: You welcome feedback and are committed to improving your craft.
• Accountable: You take ownership and follow through.
• AI-Curious: You’ve started experimenting with AI tools (Firefly, ChatGPT, Gemini, Nano Banana, etc.) and are open to incorporating them into your workflow over time.

Experience:

You have experience designing content that is centered around data. Proficiency in tools such as Adobe Illustrator, Flourish, or other relevant software is a must.

Compensation

The salary range for this position is $52,000-$88,000 depending on seniority level and level of experience. Junior designers would be at the lower end of that spectrum, and extremely strong and experienced designers would be closer to the higher end of that range.

In addition to base salary, we offer a comprehensive benefits package:

• 3 weeks annual vacation + an extra birthday vacation day
• Extended health benefits
• Additional annual Health Spending Account
• Dog-friendly office in the heart of Gastown
• Weekly happy hour and other social events
