Join Aya Healthcare, winner of multiple Top Workplace awards!

We’re looking for a highly creative and detail‑driven Social Media Content Designer to join our team. This role is responsible for bringing our brand to life visually across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Facebook, and YouTube. The ideal candidate is a strong illustrator, graphic designer and video editor who understands how to design specifically for social—where clarity, speed and scroll‑stopping visuals matter most.

You’ll partner closely with our social media team to concept, design and edit compelling content that resonates with healthcare professionals across generations. This is a fast‑paced, collaborative role that requires both artistic skill and performance‑minded thinking.

Responsibilities

Design original graphics, carousels and templates that feel native to each platform—not like traditional ads

Create custom illustrations that are clear, relatable and built for fast scrolling (not over‑polished or overly formal)

Edit short‑form videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts and LinkedIn using pacing, humor and styles common in creator and YouTuber content

Use memes, trends and cultural references thoughtfully to make content feel current and shareable

Add motion graphics, captions and effects that enhance storytelling without feeling heavy or overproduced

Translate campaign ideas into content that feels organic to the feed and aligned with how people actually consume social

Quickly adapt content across formats, hooks and edits to test what performs best

Balance brand consistency with creative flexibility—knowing when to follow guidelines and when to push for what works on social

Collaborate closely with the social team to produce high‑quality content with fast turnaround times

Stay deeply plugged into social trends, editing styles and platform shifts—and know which ones are worth acting on

Keep files, templates and assets organized for fast, repeatable content creation

Use performance data (engagement, watch time, saves, shares) to refine creative and improve results over time

Required Qualifications

Strong portfolio showcasing illustration, graphic design and social‑first video editing

Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, Premiere Pro, After Effects) or equivalent tools

Experience designing and editing specifically for short‑form social content

Strong understanding of typography, layout, color theory and visual hierarchy

Ability to design quickly without sacrificing quality or brand consistency

Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, collaborative environment with tight deadlines

Detail‑oriented with strong organization and file management skills

Ability to take creative direction and execute with minimal oversight

Strong communication and time‑management skills
