Social Media Designer

We’re looking for a strong individual contributor to join our kickass branding & design team as a junior graphic designer. As an award-winning design studio, we help brands — big and small — improve their online presence through design, strategy, and branding.

Who are you?

We’re looking for someone who is obsessed with good-looking graphics and branding assets, as well as someone who:
• has high-level proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (primarily Photoshop & Illustrator)
• a good understanding of identity design, grid systems, communication design (Social Media, Ad creatives & Mainline), editorial layouts among other things
• sound knowledge of typography, color, and gestalt principles
• is a problem solver: Finding problems is good. Proposing solutions is even better
• is opinionated: why does your solution work?
• is proactive: we care deeply about what we do & when we see opportunities/problems, we act
• is good at giving and receiving feedback: We leave the ego at the door because the end result is what matters
• is excited for demanding work that is never rushed: Work-life balance is quite important to us. We have high standards, but we also take the time to get it right

What will you work on?

As a graphic designer in our team, your primary responsibility will be to deliver crackling graphics for our clients.

Some of our most common web deliverables are:
• Stylescapes / Moodboards
• Social media graphics and assets
• Illustrations

Who will you work with?

At SimplePlan, ours is an intentionally flat setup. At any given point, you’ll be a part of a couple of projects in different phases which means your day will involve close collaboration with fellow graphic designers, web designers, front-end developers, creative leads as well as account executives.What will you get with us?
• a consulting environment - we communicate, collaborate, and facilitate
• a learning environment - we seek to get better every day
• a growth environment - we follow a kaizen-focused approach to growth
• a human environment - we believe in honesty + kindness, in every interaction

You’ll fit right in if:
• you have a bias for action
• you love coming up with ideas and bringing them alive through design
• you enjoy solving problems — design and otherwise
• you have an innate sense of ownership when it comes to work
• you enjoy discourse on design, product, and tech
• you cheer up at the idea of designing a super good-looking logo
• you enjoy close collaboration with cross-functional teams and individuals from different backgrounds
• you are as happy to receive and include ideas as you are to share them.
• you understand our company culture and values and feel you are aligned with them.

You won’t fit right in if:
• you default to wait for instructions rather than figuring things out yourself
• the only time you think about design is at work
• if you’d rather keep quiet than speak up in a meeting
• if you support fascism
