Reporting to the Director of Marketing and Communications, the UX/UI Graphic Designer plays a key role in advancing our clients brand by developing the design of digital media interfaces and user experiences for the client’s online properties. This role focuses on ensuring brand consistency and creating engaging, user-centered digital interactions across websites and digital media, with occasional focus on traditional printed items such as brochures, fliers, and branded merchandise.

Key Responsibilities

• Assist with the relaunch of the client website and other website properties, applying design and user-experience in collaboration with web developer.

• Conduct regular competitive analyses of digital properties in the higher education sector to inform design strategies.
• Occasionally design printed materials, such as brochures, flyers, and media publication ads, including full design for a yearly 18–22-page magazine publication.
• Employ a creative streak that keeps brand in mind but does not confine itself to barriers within the “brand box.”

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in graphic design, UX/UI design or related field OR four years of interactive design experience.
• Strong portfolio showcasing the ability to create visually appealing designs (must include website design).
• Fluency in all major graphic design programs, including Adobe Creative Suite. Experience with CSS and Adobe XD is preferred.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
• Strong project management skills, including the ability to prioritize tasks and meet deadlines.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to multitask.
• Must be available to work in-office and must have transportation to and from work.
• Occasional evening and weekend hours may be required.
