ABOUT THE ROLE
We are a US-based digital marketing agency looking for an experienced, proactive Senior Graphic Designer and Team Lead to oversee and execute our visual creative work across both digital and print.
This is a key leadership role within our design workflow. You will set visual standards, maintain brand consistency, lead design reviews, and produce high-impact assets for our clients.

AUTONOMY AND WORK CULTURE
We believe in professional autonomy and do not use invasive screen monitoring or surveillance software. Our culture is built on trust, clear output metrics, and outcome-based accountability. We care about design quality, proactive problem-solving, and meeting project milestones. In return, we expect clear communication, accountability for deadlines, and timely responses during your shift.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON EMPLOYMENT
Please do NOT apply if you operate as an agency, outsource your work, or have other people working for you. We are exclusively hiring an individual, dedicated full-time team member. This role involves regular English meetings and direct design reviews that must be handled by you personally.

Note: We respect your experience and portfolio. There is absolutely NO unpaid trial or test work required to apply.

WHAT YOU WILL DO
Design Execution (Print & Digital): Produce clean, conversion-focused digital assets (social media graphics, ad banners, thumbnails, presentation decks) and production-ready print materials (menus, flyers, brochures with accurate CMYK and bleed setups).

Creative Leadership & Quality Control: Guide brand consistency across accounts, review deliverables, spot errors before clients see them, and maintain high standards for the entire design output.

Collaboration & Review: Participate in daily project reviews, communicate blockers early, provide solutions, and handle design feedback directly and constructively.

Tool Fluency: Execute advanced design work primarily in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, while remaining comfortable utilizing Canva for fast asset iteration, collaborative templates, or client-facing handoffs.

Technical & Web Support: Provide occasional visual support for basic web graphics, landing pages, or technical digital tasks when needed.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Initiative and Ownership: You do not wait around for line-by-line instructions. You spot gaps, suggest visual solutions, and take full ownership of tasks, deadlines, and revisions.

Clear Communication: Excellent written and spoken English. You keep the team informed on progress and ask the right questions early.

Tech and AI Savvy: Comfortable incorporating AI design and productivity tools into your workflow to speed up ideation and production.

Composure Under Feedback: You handle constructive critiques professionally and adapt quickly to shifting client requirements.
