Knowledge Road is hiring: Graphic Designer in New York

Join to apply for the Graphic Designer role at Knowledge Road.

Base pay range: $20.00/hr – $25.00/hr.

Mission

Make special education communication crystal-clear and human. You’ll translate complex services into simple, trust-building visuals for families, schools, districts, and partners.

What You’ll Make

• Brand assets: campaigns, one-pagers, pitch decks, infographics, social creative, event collateral.
• Program collateral: brochures for services (SETSS, OT, Speech, ABA), parent guides, flyers, signage.
• Templates & Toolkits: Modular deck templates, case-study layouts, email graphics, and iconography.
• Web & social: landing-page visuals, blog art, paid-social variants (A/B creative at scale).
• Production-ready files: clean, organized sources—printers love you.

How You’ll Work

• Rapid iteration from loose briefs to polished delivery.
• Clear file hygiene (naming, bleeds, color profiles, exports).
• Partner closely with Marketing, Sales, and Ops to align message, audience, and channel.

You Are

• A typographic neat freak with range (corporate, friendly, accessible).
• Fast, iterative, and allergic to fluff.
• Comfortable turning dense information into snappy, legible visuals.

Must-Haves

• Experience in brand/marketing design with a portfolio spanning print and digital.
• Expert in Adobe CC (Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop) and Figma for layout/systemization.
• Strong hierarchy, accessible color usage, and disciplined file setup.
• Ability to visualize complexity (infographics, timelines, process maps).

Nice-to-Haves

• Motion/video (After Effects, Premiere) for short social explainers.
• Illustration or icon design.
• Experience designing for education, nonprofits, or government stakeholders.

KPIs You’ll Move

• Engagement and CTR on campaigns.
• Sales-cycle support (deck clarity, win-rate lift).
• Brand consistency (template adoption, fewer one-off assets).
• Turnaround time from brief → first draft → final.
