The role
We’re looking for a junior graphic designer at the start of their career to join our team and help produce thumbnails, social graphics and ad creative across a varied client roster. You’ll work from clear briefs and established brand guidelines, with support and feedback from more experienced designers along the way. This is a hands-on role for someone eager to learn, keen to build their portfolio with real client work, and ready to grow quickly in a busy, high-output environment.
What you’ll do
- Design YouTube thumbnails, learning what makes them bold, legible and clickable
- Create social media graphics and carousels for Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and other platforms
- Produce ad creative for Meta and Google, including resizing and adapting designs into multiple formats and variants
- Apply client brand guidelines accurately and consistently
- Take on feedback and revisions, turning them around promptly
- Keep files clean, well-named and organised for the wider team
What we’re looking for
- Up to two years’ experience in a design role, or a recent graduate with a strong portfolio
- Working knowledge of Figma, Photoshop and Illustrator
- A portfolio showing your eye for layout, typography and colour; student, personal or freelance projects are welcome
- Genuine interest in social media, YouTube and digital content
- Reliability, attention to detail and the ability to manage several tasks at once
- Openness to feedback and a desire to keep improving
- Clear written communication and comfort working remotely across time zones
Nice to have
- Any experience designing for social media or advertising, whether for clients, a society, a church or your own channels
- An interest in how design performs, such as which thumbnails or ads get the most clicks
What we offer
- Competitive pay, based on experience
- Fully remote working, from anywhere
- Flexibility to join as a full-time employee or on a contract basis
- Regular feedback and the chance to develop your skills on live client work
- Meaningful work for organisations with a genuine mission, and the chance to see your designs reach large audiences
