Description:

We’re seeking a versatile and creative Web & Graphic Designer to join our Communications team for a six-month assignment. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys blending design creativity with digital content management. You’ll work across both print and digital media — from concept development to final delivery — helping bring visual ideas to life while maintaining strong technical standards online.

The position involves an even split between creative design work and digital content management, making it perfect for a designer who is as comfortable in Adobe Creative Suite as they are in web platforms like Drupal or HubSpot.

Key Responsibilities:
Graphic Design & Creative (50%)

Conceptualize and design engaging digital and print materials, including event collateral, social graphics, web banners, brochures, and templates.
Develop visually compelling layouts that align with brand standards and elevate campaigns across multiple platforms.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate complex ideas into clear, visually impactful designs.
Support the development of new creative concepts, visual identities, and branding for special projects such as podcasts and video series.
Prepare print-ready files and coordinate with local vendors as needed.

Web & Digital Communications (50%)

Create, edit, and publish content using a Drupal-based CMS, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and brand alignment.
Assist in producing and sending a daily e-newsletter through HubSpot, maintaining high standards of design and accessibility.
Manage and update website pages to ensure a seamless and user-friendly experience.
Maintain consistent visual identity across web, email, and social channels.
Collaborate closely with editorial, marketing, and communications teams to meet daily production deadlines.

Requirements

3+ years of professional graphic design experience with a strong portfolio demonstrating creativity, layout design, and brand execution.
Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign).
Familiarity with content management systems (CMS) and/or basic HTML. Experience with Drupal and HubSpot is a plus.
Strong eye for typography, color, composition, and detail.
Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines independently in a fast-paced environment.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
Knowledge of web accessibility best practices is a plus.

Education & Experience (Required)

Bachelor’s degree in a related field and at least one year of relevant experience, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
