• Produce communication materials for print, web, display, social and digital channels.
• Assist with bid documents and marketing collateral under senior supervision.
• Participate in design reviews, exchange ideas with the team and build knowledge of effective design practices.
• Help gather quotations and coordinate with suppliers and printers on production schedules and quality control.
• Maintain accurate project records and support file archiving so work can be retrieved easily later.
• Assist in maintaining design templates and shared libraries.
• Stay up to date with graphic design trends and best practices through ongoing research and industry awareness.
