Position Title: Senior Graphic Designer – Marketing & Creative Content

Assignment Duration: 12 months

Work Arrangement: Onsite

Position Summary:

You are a detail oriented, modern designer with the foundational skillset of traditional execution. You thrive on thorough strategic briefs, taking an initial idea and turning it into a visual masterpiece. Whether it’s the Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma Gen AI, or a combination of tools – you know how to properly apply platforms to create scalable deliverables with results that shine. A true team player, ready to roll up their sleeves and collaborate in our creative studio team with the opportunity to drive true impact within our organization’s ecosystem of commercial marketers and medical strategy leads.

In this role, you will be a core “maker” on our creative team, focusing heavily on the day-to-day execution and production of creative assets. We love platform innovation on this team, and are constantly testing new tools to determine how we can deliver results faster while maintaining high quality standards of output. This position is a chance to become the design face of a strategic proof of concept supporting many formats such as email, social ads, banners, website updates, and brochures – to name a few. Working alongside a project manager, content writer, and a team of marketers you will be responsible for the creation of derivative and net-new designs as the spotlight resource of this critical initiative with the brands.

Key Responsibilities:

• Serve as the primary graphic designer working directly with our Art Director and brand team on a large number of creative assets and promotional materials.
• Brand Consistency: Apply brand guidelines and design system meticulously across all deliverables. Ensure every asset produced is typographically sound, compliant, and strictly adheres to regulatory review guidelines.
• Asset Management and File Delivery: Prepare flawless final files for print production and digital publishing. Understand design requirements for multiple formats and deliver artwork that is ready for publication across platforms.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner effectively with project managers, copywriters, and brand teams to take creative briefs from initial layout to final, approved execution.
• Agile Iteration: Quickly and gracefully incorporate feedback from stakeholders and regulatory/compliance teams (CMLR reviews), iterating designs to meet both creative and legal requirements.

Qualification & Experience:

• 5-7 years of hands‑on professional graphic design and production experience in an agency or in-house environment. Experience in healthcare, biotech, or a highly regulated industry is a strong plus.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communications or related field.
• Technical Proficiency: Expert-level mastery of the Adobe Creative Cloud suite (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop) and Adobe Express. Familiarity with UI/UX tools (Figma) and basic motion graphics (After Effects) is preferred but not required.
• Portfolio: A strong portfolio showcasing excellent typography, layout, color theory, and a heavy emphasis on flawlessly executed, real-world design deliverables (digital, print, and presentations). Applications without a portfolio link will not be considered.
• Attention to Detail: An eagle eye for detail, from kerning and alignment to spotting inconsistencies in formatting and brand application.
• Work Style: Highly organized, proactive, and capable of managing multiple deadlines simultaneously without sacrificing the quality of the final product.
