Multi-page Designer

The Role:

The Multi-page Designer consistently lays out a high volume of content with efficiency and sharp craftsmanship, taking direction from a Creative lead. Your production expertise is rooted in an eye for detail, resulting in precise revisions and clean file-build methodology. You relish in repetitive work and spot opportunities to gain efficiency through new tools, workflows, and processes.

Your favorite day at work is production-heavy with some design responsibilities, including support on other types of projects and internal materials.  As a specialist in cyclical work, you are energized by the year-over-year iteration of a client’s sustainability report.

This role sits in our Creative Team and reports to our Design Director.

Your responsibilities will include:

Project delivery

• Design a variety of other client deliverables, such as web page layouts, presentations, white papers, factsheets, and social media in collaboration with the Creative lead and Project lead.
• Accurately address client and project team feedback through rounds of revisions.
• Identify and trial opportunities for internal process and practice improvements.

Client satisfaction and revenue generation

• Build ongoing rapport with clients through quality work and product satisfaction.
• Ongoing contribution to thinkPARALLAX marketing and sales activities (e.g., campaign materials, proposals, social media, event promotions).

Qualifications:

• Proficient in creating multi-page layouts (typically in the form of reports) with a large volume of content (eg, 50-100 pages).
• Advanced skills in typography, photo editing, and layout design.
• Efficient with executing design production activities.
• Collaborative and team-oriented, though able to produce work products independently.
• Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail.
• Critical thinker.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Ability to function well in a remote-first, fast-paced environment.
