SOCIAL MEDIA GRAPHIC DESIGNER

SOCIAL MEDIA GRAPHIC DESIGNER
Remote · Contract · Soleil Studio, San Diego
Hiring ASAP

Soleil Studio is a boutique social media and content studio based in San Diego. We partner with wellness, beauty, lifestyle, fitness, and CPG brands to build social presences that feel elevated, intentional, and unmistakably theirs. Our clients range from growing challenger brands to Fortune 500 consumer brands.

We’re looking for a designer who knows how to bring a brand to life.

The role
This is a pure design role. Our team writes all the copy and provides every piece of information you need. Your job is to make it beautiful.

We are never looking for text placed on a photo. We’re looking for real design: illustration, graphic elements, typography, and layouts that feel crafted and interesting. You’ll be handed a brand, its references, and its inspiration accounts. From there, we need you to understand who that brand is and translate it visually.

What you’ll be doing
// Designing Instagram carousels from copy and briefs we provide
// Designing Instagram Stories and highlight reels when needed
// Interpreting each brand’s identity, references, and inspiration into a distinct visual style
// Using illustration, graphic elements, and typography to make every post feel designed
// Keeping each month’s graphics cohesive, so they look like they belong together
// Delivering on schedule and iterating on feedback

What you’ll get from us
// Finished copy and all the information for every post
// An up-to-date content folder for each client, with imagery, photo, and video assets
// A dedicated social media manager who takes your designs, posts them, and supports you with whatever you need

You’ll never be designing in the dark. You’ll have full support.

Who you are
You can look at a brand’s references and immediately see what it should feel like. You have a strong point of view on typography and layout, and your work goes well beyond templates. You’re organized, dependable, detail-obsessed, and you take ownership of your work.

Skills & experience
// A portfolio of social graphics that shows illustration, typography, and design-led layouts (not text-on-photo)
// Strong Canva skills (required)
// Ability to adapt your style across very different brand identities
// Understanding of Instagram carousel, Story, and highlight formats
// Reliable with deadlines across multiple brands

Bonus points
// Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop
// Short-form video editing in CapCut
// Agency experience

Scope & compensation
// You’ll start with 2 client accounts
// Each client receives 8 carousels per 30-day cycle (16 carousels total). Stories or highlight reels occasionally take the place of carousels
// Pay is $125 per client per 30-day cycle
// After your first 90 days, we’ll review together and look at adding more clients

If you’re strong, reliable, and ready for more, there’s real room to grow with us and take on more accounts.

We’re reviewing applications on a rolling basis and hope to bring someone on quickly, so apply soon.
