Junior Graphic Designer

We are looking for a remote Junior Designer to join our Growth Department.

What does a Junior Designer at Human Made do?

As a Junior Designer at Human Made you are responsible for the graphic design of the company. You will produce graphics for blog posts, articles, case studies, white papers, and other marketing assets. You will work with the Marketing Team to produce white papers and case studies, creating both interactive and print-ready versions. You will design pitch decks and proposals, supporting the Sales Team with any design assets they need.

You will be a member of the Growth Department, and report directly to the Senior Product Designer, but you will provide design input and work as requested across other departments.

What do you need from me?

You should have experience using design and illustration tools, including Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign, and should be able to create and update graphics and designs with minimum support. You should be comfortable using online tools such as Google Docs and Slack, and be confident picking up new tools and learning about them.

You will have the opportunity to meet the rest of the company at our annual company meetup, and with members of the rest of your team at least once a year. We care about good communication and you should be able to prioritise your work and meet deadlines, discussing any problems with the team along the way.
