- Proficiency with Adobe Creative Cloud, particularly InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop, and/or other professional design tools.
- Strong knowledge of layout, typography, image selection and editing, and visual hierarchy, with the ability to create clean, polished designs for different formats and audiences.
- Experience preparing production-ready files for print and digital use, including appropriate file formats, sizing, resolution, bleeds, and other basic production specifications.
- Experience working within established brand guidelines and maintaining consistency across different materials, while incorporating feedback and revisions.
- Ability to work independently from a project brief or creative direction, ask questions when needed, and manage assignments through final delivery.
- Strong communication and time-management skills, including responsiveness to project requests, status updates, feedback, and deadlines.
- Ability to manage multiple projects or competing deadlines when needed and communicate early if timing or scope changes.
- Availability to work on an as-needed, project-by-project basis, including occasional projects with short turnaround times.
