Job Type: Full-time

Category: Creative & Media / Art & Design / Marketing / Consulting

Date Posted: 2026-09-07

Experience Level: 6+ years

Remote Status: Remote Solely

πŸš€ Role Summary

  • Develop innovative creative concepts and visual assets to support corporate initiatives, marketing programs, and business development activities, ensuring alignment with brand objectives and strategic goals.

  • Manage the end-to-end design lifecycle for a variety of projects including presentations, proposals, websites, promotional collateral, and interactive content.

  • Collaborate closely with senior sales and marketing stakeholders to translate complex ideas into compelling visual narratives and actionable design solutions.

  • Drive the adoption of new design techniques, creative mediums, and production approaches by researching emerging trends and sharing best practices within the design team.

  • Oversee and execute print production activities, including vendor coordination, proofing, and quality assurance to ensure high-fidelity deliverables.

πŸ“ Enhancement Note: This role is for a Graphic Design Consultant, not a typical Revenue Operations, Sales Operations, or GTM role. The focus is on creative output and visual communication rather than operational efficiency, data analysis, or process optimization. Therefore, the enhancement will focus on the application of design principles within a business context, rather than traditional operations metrics. The "operations" aspect will be interpreted as the operational execution of design projects.

πŸ“ˆ Primary Responsibilities

  • Conceptualize and execute compelling visual designs for corporate initiatives, marketing campaigns, and brand development projects, ensuring strong alignment with strategic objectives.

  • Design and maintain prospect-facing websites, including graphic development, content updates, usability reviews, and performance analysis.

  • Create technical and conceptual graphics, charts, diagrams, and flowcharts for presentations, proposals, and business materials using industry-standard software.

  • Develop engaging traditional, video, and interactive multimedia presentations to clearly communicate complex information to diverse audiences.

  • Design and produce a wide range of print and digital promotional materials, including brochures, flyers, email assets, and corporate presentations.

  • Coordinate and manage print production activities, ensuring quality control through blue lines, color proofs, press checks, and vendor management.

  • Maintain and organize the organization's slide and content library, ensuring accessibility and consistency of brand assets.

  • Research and share emerging design techniques, creative mediums, and production approaches with the design team, fostering continuous improvement.

  • Collaborate with event planners and external vendors to develop and produce materials for conferences, trade shows, and corporate events.

  • Communicate project progress, timelines, and potential issues proactively to relevant stakeholders throughout the creative process.

  • Support organizational quality programs by contributing to consistent design standards across all deliverables.

πŸ“ Enhancement Note: The core responsibilities are heavily focused on creative execution and project management within a design context. For an operations professional, this would translate to managing the process of design delivery, ensuring efficiency, and maintaining quality standards. The emphasis on collaboration with sales and marketing stakeholders implies a need for understanding GTM strategies and translating them visually.

πŸŽ“ Skills & Qualifications

Education: Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communications, or a related field from an accredited institution is preferred.

Experience: Minimum of 6 years of professional graphic and web design experience, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant work experience.

Required Skills:

  • Expertise in graphic design principles, visual hierarchy, typography, and color theory.

  • Strong practical experience creating professional visual assets for both digital and print mediums.

  • Proficiency with industry-standard graphic design and photo-editing software, particularly Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop).

  • Solid understanding of web technologies and best practices for designing effective digital user experiences.

  • Excellent oral and written communication skills, with the ability to articulate creative concepts and design rationale clearly.

  • Strong organizational and project-management skills, with a demonstrated ability to manage multiple creative assignments concurrently.

  • Ability to prioritize competing deadlines while maintaining accuracy, quality, and meticulous attention to detail.

  • Excellent interpersonal and collaboration skills, with a proven ability to work effectively with internal stakeholders, design teams, and external vendors.

  • Strong conceptual thinking, problem-solving, judgment, troubleshooting, and analytical skills.

  • Ability to remain effective under pressure, manage multiple priorities, and consistently meet project deadlines.

  • Capacity to work independently and contribute effectively within a team environment. Preferred Skills:

  • Experience with multimedia production tools (video editing, interactive content creation).

  • Familiarity with web development basics (HTML/CSS) for better collaboration with web teams.

  • Knowledge of usability principles and user experience (UX) best practices.

  • Experience in managing and maintaining digital asset management (DAM) systems or content libraries.

  • Familiarity with corporate branding guidelines and their application across various media.

  • Experience in coordinating print production processes and vendor management.

πŸ“ Enhancement Note: While the role is creative, the "operations" aspect lies in the efficient execution and management of design projects. The requirements emphasize project management, communication, and problem-solving, which are critical for operations roles. The need to "research emerging design techniques" and "share new processes and best practices" points to a continuous improvement mindset, a hallmark of operations professionals.

πŸ“Š Process & Systems Portfolio Requirements

Portfolio Essentials:

  • A comprehensive portfolio showcasing a minimum of 6 years of diverse graphic and web design work.

  • Demonstrations of creative concept development, from initial ideation to final execution across various media (digital, print, web, multimedia).

  • Case studies highlighting the translation of business objectives into compelling visual solutions, with clear articulation of the design process.

  • Examples of website design, including visual elements, user interface (UI) considerations, and content updates.

  • Samples of presentations, proposals, or collateral that effectively communicate complex information or brand messaging.

  • Evidence of project management skills, such as managing multiple projects concurrently, meeting deadlines, and collaborating with stakeholders. Process Documentation:

  • Documentation of experience managing print production processes, including vendor coordination and quality control measures.

  • Any instances where new design techniques, tools, or creative approaches were researched, adopted, and shared with a team.

πŸ“ Enhancement Note: For a design role, the "portfolio" is the equivalent of an operations professional's "process portfolio" or "project portfolio." The emphasis here is on demonstrating not just the final output, but the process behind it, including problem-solving, collaboration, and adherence to standards. This aligns with how operations professionals showcase their work through case studies of process improvements and system implementations.

🏒 Company Culture

Industry: The company operates within the broader professional services or technology sector, likely focusing on business solutions or enablement, given the partnership model and the role's support of corporate initiatives and sales/marketing.

Company Size: The description implies a professional services firm or a company with a dedicated internal team that partners with external entities. The use of "partner company" and "Jobgether's AI-powered matching process" suggests Jobgether acts as a talent acquisition platform or consultancy. The partner company likely has a structure that requires specialized creative support for its GTM (Go-To-Market) functions.

Founded: Not specified, but the engagement with a platform like Jobgether and the mention of AI-powered matching suggest a modern, tech-enabled organization.

Team Structure:

  • The Graphic Design Consultant will likely be part of a marketing, creative services, or GTM support team within the partner company.

Company Website: https://jobgether.com/ (for the platform, the partner company's website is not specified)

πŸ“ Enhancement Note: The context is derived from Jobgether's role as a platform and the description of the Graphic Design Consultant's responsibilities. The "operations" aspect is inferred from the need for structured creative delivery, process improvement in design, and collaboration with business functions like sales and marketing. The lack of specific partner company details means assumptions are made about a typical B2B environment requiring GTM support.

πŸ“ˆ Career & Growth Analysis

Operations Career Level: This role is positioned as a Consultant level, implying a significant degree of autonomy, expertise, and responsibility. It's not an entry-level position but requires substantial experience (6+ years) to operate effectively. For an operations professional, this translates to a senior individual contributor role with potential for project leadership.

Reporting Structure: The consultant will report to senior sales and marketing leadership or a designated creative lead. This structure suggests direct impact and visibility on critical business initiatives.

Operations Impact: While not a direct revenue-generating role, the Graphic Design Consultant's work has a substantial indirect impact on revenue by enhancing brand perception, supporting sales proposals, improving marketing campaign effectiveness, and optimizing website conversion rates through strong visual communication. The quality of design directly influences stakeholder engagement and brand credibility.

  • Collaboration will primarily occur through digital channels, including video conferencing, project management tools, and communication platforms.

  • The environment fosters independent work and self-discipline, balanced with collaborative contributions to team projects.

Work Schedule: Standard full-time working hours (approximately 40 hours per week) are expected. However, the nature of creative consulting often involves flexibility to meet project deadlines, which may occasionally require extended hours or work outside of standard business times.
