Multimedia Designer & Digital Content Producer

The University of Olivet is seeking a creative, strategically-minded Multimedia Designer & Content Producer to join our Marketing team. This role is designed for a digital-first creator with a strong foundation in graphic design, visual hierarchy, and brand continuity. We require a multimedia talent who can take a single marketing concept and build a cohesive visual campaign across our website, social media, email, and digital ads.

Key responsibilities include:

Campaign & Brand Continuity: Translate overarching university marketing strategies into cohesive, multi-channel visual campaigns. Ensure a consistent look, feel, and voice across all digital touchpoints (web, social, email, and digital ads).

Digital Asset Design: Design and produce high-quality digital assets rooted in solid design principles.

Multimedia Production: Script, shoot, and edit short-form and mid-form video content and capture high-quality campus photography, ensuring all visual content aligns with Olivet's brand guidelines.

On-Campus Event Coverage: Attend campus events, games, classes, etc., to capture real time content and transform raw footage into polished, brand-compliant digital assets.

Audience-Centric Storytelling: Understand and design for our key audiences, including prospective students, current students, parents, and alumni, tailoring the visual approach to resonate with each demographic.

Integrated Print Support: Utilize your design foundation to occasionally support hybrid campaigns that include print collateral, ensuring seamless cross-media brand alignment.

Qualifications and skills include:

Experience: 2–4 years of professional experience or a portfolio that demonstrates equivalent capability in graphic design, digital marketing, or multimedia production with a portfolio that demonstrates comprehensive campaign execution.

Design & Brand Acumen: Brings not just clean execution but can create materials that resonate with Gen Z and is not afraid to take design risks that are outside the box.

Technical Skills: Mastery of the Adobe Creative Suite. Experience with Figma or Canva for team-shared assets is a plus.

Equipment Savvy: Comfort operating DSLR/mirrorless cameras, mobile shooting rigs, audio mics, and basic lighting setups for field production.

Print Experience (a plus): A foundational understanding of print design (bleeds, CMYK, file prep) is valued to assist with integrated marketing initiatives.

To be considered for this role, applicants must submit:

A resume detailing relevant experience.

A short (250ish words) on why you are interested in working at The University of Olivet.

A digital portfolio link demonstrating multi-channel marketing campaigns that show brand continuity (e.g., how a single campaign concept was executed across web, social media, and email).

Short-form video and social examples with real reach or engagement.
