Hello, Friend! Thanks for your interest in becoming our next Media Designer. 

I​n this cross-functional role, you'd be working collaboratively with our Marketing Director to optimize our marketing efforts by creating content that aligns with our branding and is geared towards our target audiences. With a well-rounded understanding of both video and photo editing, you'll be responsible for creating multimedia designs, images and video. This could be anything from advertisments, to landing pages, to brochures for a tradeshow. Bering an expert at Photoshop, Sketch, Final Cut Pro and After Effects is crucial. Taking little instruction and still bringing the vision to life will be your North Star. 

In this position, you obviously need to have an eye for layout, color theory, typography and various design styles. But don't worry, you won't be an island. Our Marketing Team is a small group of seriously creative people who want and encourage collaboration, so you'll always have a direction and vision assigned before getting thrown into any project. 

What's most important to us is that you're a team player with flexibility and an understanding that feedback isn't personal. We want someone that knows how to take initiative but also knows how to take direction. Both are crucial. 

Sound like a fit so far? Excellent news!
Just to be sure, here's a bulleted overview of the position requirements: 

• Be an accomplished marketing and advertising-oriented designer with extensive experience in video-editing. We will ask to see examples during the interview process.
• Be an expert at Photoshop, Sketch, Final Cut Pro and After Effects
• Be able to create visuals/videos that align with our brand and vision
• Be able to meet aggressive deadlines. We're a startup, we have to work FAST!
• Have the wherewithal to bring ideas to the table but also bring someone else's idea to life (i.e. look at something poorly created in Paint or scribblined on a note pad and turn it into something awesome)
• Have proven experience creating: Content and ads for social media, expainer/typography/kinetic videos, animated gifs and other custom content

If all that fits the bill for you, then here's what your day to day would look like:

• Collaborate with the Marketing Director to achieve daily/weekly/monthly goals for the department
• Work closely with CEO and Marketing Director to strategize the visuals for our advertising efforts. Then design those things. 
• Create landing pages based on the advertisements being promoted
• Assist in organizing and executing the creative process and design of tradeshow brochures, eBooks, social media ads, landing pages, youtube videos and podcasts.
• Collaborate with our Front End development team for Corp Site designs
• Play 1-2 games of ping pong

To reiterate, your day to day is not usually the same because we're a startup and things come up at a moments notice. We're an all hands on deck type team so the words "that's not my job" shouldn't be in your vocabulary. If they are...remove them. That's not how we operate here ;)

Anyway, if all this sounds like your cup of tea then APPLY! 
We are actively looking to scale our marketing team, beginning these efforts early 2020. 

Looking forward to hearing from you!
