Job description

Big idea, tiny execution flaw, total disaster: the Senior Graphic Designer Lionsgate wants closes that gap before anyone else even spots it. Cut to the chase and you get $85,000 - $120,000, a creative mandate, and Lionsgate colleagues who treat ownership as the default.

Key Responsibilities

• Steer a senior review toward decisions instead of opinions about decisions
• Pitch the uncomfortable direction when the safe one has clearly run dry
• Stitch fragmented brand assets into a system that scales past Lionsgate's next phase
• Curate the reference wall that keeps a 5-person studio pointed the same way
• Stage A/B variants that isolate one creative variable cleanly
• Reconcile legal's caveats with a layout that still breathes
• Convert vague people-centered adjectives from a brief into concrete, defensible choices
• Knit copy and art into a single argument instead of two parallel monologues

What You'll Bring

• Comfort interpreting data and translating findings into clear recommendations
• Reliable, accountable, and committed to following through
• Demonstrated Mentoring expertise in a fast-moving creative environment
• A flexible attitude and eagerness to learn new skills
• Hands-on proficiency with Heuristic Evaluation, ideally paired with Attention to Detail
