Apply now to join us on a creative journey!

We’re on the hunt for a multitalented Digital Designer to step into the shoes of one of our superstar team members during her parental leave. This is a broad and exciting role that blends digital and graphic design, video and photo editing, and content creation across both digital and physical formats.

Yes, we know — that’s a lot. And no, we don’t expect you to be a unicorn who’s mastered it all. We’re looking for someone with a solid foundation and a hunger to learn, create, and get things done.

What You’ll Do

• You’ll be our go-to creative for a wide range of tasks:
• Design eye-catching graphics for web and print
• Create and edit videos and images for digital campaigns
• Maintain our visual identity across all channels
• Design presentations (Google Slides) and marketing materials
• Help us stay visually sharp in everything from emails to events
• Maintain our WordPress-based website and blog

Your Skill Set

You probably have experience in many of these areas — and curiosity in the rest:

• Digital design & visual identity
• Graphic design for web and print
• Video & image editing
• Email design
• Presentation and slide design (Google)
• Light WordPress work

Tools we use:
Figma, Adobe Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, etc.)

Your Profile

We're looking for someone who is:

• Fast-paced, efficient, and self-reliant
• A creative doer who isn’t afraid to try, fail, and try again
• Comfortable prioritising and owning your work
• Bold in your ideas and confident in execution
• Excellent at maintaining a cohesive visual brand
• Fluent in English (written & spoken)

Why Join Us?

You’ll be stepping in for someone who left big creative shoes to fill — but you’ll also be given trust and freedom to bring your own flair to the role. We put just as much weight on personality and mindset as we do on your portfolio. If you’re eager, curious, and want to join us in building the best digital marketplace for educators, then we’d love to meet you.

Start Date: As soon as possible
End Date: August 2026
