Visual Design and Media Internship

Job Duties
Description

Job Summary

We're looking for a creative, detail-driven Visual Design & Media Intern to support our Marketing and Communication team. In this role, you'll help bring projects to life through compelling visuals that support social media, digital and print marketing materials, video production, and internal presentations.

This isn't a "sit back and observe" internship-you'll gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced environment learning how to support KLJ's visual storytelling for the success and growth of the company.

What You'll Do

Create print and digital graphics that support marketing campaigns, storytelling, and brand initiatives

Help bring Engineering | Reimagined to life through visuals in social media, proposals, presentations, and video

Assist with video production, reels, and motion graphics to showcase KLJ projects, people, and culture

Develop marketing materials like brochures, sell sheets, infographics, and presentations

Format and produce client-facing and internal materials that reinforce KLJ's professional brand

Ensure all work aligns with KLJ brand standards, consistency, and visual identity

Collaborate with the Marketing & Communications team to support recruiting, client development, and storytelling efforts

Prepare files for print, web, and multi-channel distribution

Participate in creative brainstorming sessions (we like ideas here... big ones, bold ones, even the "we're not sure yet" ones)

Refine and evolve your work based on feedback-because growth happens fast here

What You Bring

Currently pursuing a degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communications, Digital Media, or a related field

Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop; bonus for After Effects & Premiere Pro)

Understanding of layout, typography, and visual storytelling fundamentals

A portfolio (big or small-we care more about thought process than perfection)

Ability to manage multiple projects and meet deadlines (we move fast-in a good way)

A mindset that's curious, coachable, and ready to learn

Bonus Points (Nice-to-Haves)

Experience with video editing, motion graphics, or content creation

Exposure to interactive or digital-first design

Familiarity with PowerPoint or presentation design

Experience working with brand guidelines or marketing teams

Why This Role Stands Out at KLJ

Work on real, meaningful projects that impact recruiting, client relationships, and company growth

Build a portfolio that goes beyond social posts-think data visualization, storytelling, and strategic design

Learn how design connects directly to business strategy and community impact

Get hands-on mentorship from experienced designers, marketers, and video professionals

Experience what it means to be part of a company built on being:

Safe - we prioritize people and quality in everything we do

Inclusive - every idea and perspective matters

Learners - growth is part of the job

Achievers - we take pride in our work

Owners - we take responsibility and drive results together [

The Bigger Picture

At KLJ, we're more than an engineering firm, we're problem-solvers, storytellers, and community builders.

Your work here won't just look good-it'll help communicate ideas that improve communities and shape the future.
