Multimedia Designer

About Project MFG
America is running out of skilled tradespeople. Open jobs are going unfilled by the hundreds of thousands, and the gap is widening fast, putting our way of life and our national security at risk. The things that keep our country running and safe don't get built without the people who know how to build them.

Project MFG
Project MFG is a mission-driven organization on a bold quest to inspire the next generation to discover the trades and reframe them as what they really are: aspirational, high-impact careers that futures are built on. We do it through hands‑on competitions, discovery events, networking, scholarships, and more that connect community, education, and industry around one shared goal: growing America’s skilled trades pipeline.

As the need for skilled tradespeople grows more urgent, we're expanding our team to increase our reach and help close the gap.

Multimedia Designer
You will bring our brand, campaigns, and mission to life through design and video. You'll design social graphics, signage, banners, branded assets, short‑form video, and more, keeping our brand strong and our mission message cohesive across everything we put out.
