Who we are looking for
We are looking for a creative individual with experience in Graphic Design with some Illustration training. Ideal candidates would be able to produce a range of materials including social posts, infographics, one pagers, activity sheets, branded material designs, and slide decks. For examples of our brand and range of creative output visit our facebook page. Experience in motion graphics, video editing, and/or game design, though not mandatory, would be greatly beneficial. We’re looking for the ability to take rough ideas from start to finish, apply graphic design best practices and latest trends, researching approaches, asking questions, and applying critical thought to come up with creative ways to communicate ideas and feelings to customers. A strong sense of composition, typography, color theory, and attention to detail are necessary, as well as familiarity with vector-based asset creation using tools such as Adobe Illustrator. Familiarity with Figma is encouraged, but not required.
This is a contract position with a potential path to full-time based on company growth and needs. Ideally candidates would be available for a few meetings per week within our 9am-5pm EST working hours. Total hours would depend on availability and rates. As this is a junior to mid-level position candidates can expect mentorship and feedback on work. This role will report to Mightier’s Creative Director and act as a member of the broader Creative Team. This should be an exciting opportunity for anyone interested in contributing to the promotion and creation of mental health products that help kids and families.
