Graphic Designer

We are looking for a Designer to join our growing creative team in NY.

The 1000heads Creative team is a proud, powerful collective of social copy and design obsessives, experts managing creative output. You will work closely with a whole host of departmental specialists, from Accounts, Insights, to Paid Media, to Strategy to deliver transformational social-first work for our clients.

Role

You love all things design and you sweat the details. You're as comfortable animating as you are talking about why Papyrus is a travesty. You love the challenge of coming up with and executing the best creative solution for any given problem, and you have no hang-ups about collaborating with senior staff on a design-savvy team to produce engaging content according to a variety of briefs.

You'll be expected to explore and start mastering a strong point of view in design and be able to explain your choices to other people on your team (and to the client). Your daily tasks will include social asset creation from start to finish, animation, video editing, presentation layout, concept mockups, and photo editing.

You get the technical stuff (design best practices, new techniques, and new platforms). You get the non-technical stuff (people and what drives them, no matter who they may be). Sound like you? We're just a contact away.

Responsibilities

Understand project requirements and concepts across a variety of mediums (e.g. responsive design, motion design, social assets of various shapes and sizes)

Use various techniques to create drafts, storyboards and wireframes

Produce final design solutions for all media (e.g. logos, social assets, interfaces, websites and app designs) and presentations which best communicate work

Offer input into creative brainstorms and share ideas during team meetings

Communicating with senior team members to receive feedback, using it to improve work while working autonomously to execute vision

Supporting the team throughout the execution of campaigns and projects

Learn skills to support specialized tasks and evolving landscape of digital media

Requirements

2+ years experience with a knowledge of industry tools

Experience with design software and editing tools (e.g. Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Lightroom, Premiere, After Effects)

Skilled with PowerPoint

Strong written and verbal communication skills

Strong motion design skills

Strong understanding of visual elements (layout, typography, hierarchy and composition)

A keen eye for detail

Time management and multitasking abilities

Highly creative with problem-solving aptitude

Ability to meet deadlines in a high-pressure environment

Ability to see projects through from inception to production
