🚀 Role Summary

• Support a fast-paced in-house creative team in producing high-quality visual content for digital, brand, presentation, and marketing initiatives for a key consulting client.

• Engage with enterprise-level Media Asset Management (MAM) and Digital Asset Management (DAM) systems, contributing to their design, implementation, and optimization.

• Develop and maintain ingest pipelines, metadata structures, and archival strategies for various media formats.

• Contribute to the creation of end-to-end media ingest workflows, including transcoding, quality control, and delivery specifications.

• Assist in the administration and configuration of MAM/DAM platforms and related storage systems.

📝 Enhancement Note: While the title is "Junior Visual Designer," the core responsibilities heavily lean into Media Asset Management (MAM) and Digital Asset Management (DAM) systems, including technical workflow design, system administration, and process optimization for media ingest and archival. This suggests the role requires a blend of design sensibility and operational/technical understanding within the media production lifecycle, rather than purely graphic design. The target candidate should be comfortable with technical systems and processes related to media management, alongside their design skills.

• Maintain and update reporting dashboards for ingest metrics, system throughput, and storage utilization to inform operational decisions.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Engineering, IT, Production, Post-Production) to define requirements for media management tools and infrastructure.

• Configure and administer MAM/DAM platforms, including user roles, permissions, and metadata configurations.

• Support the implementation and maintenance of scalable storage systems with a focus on backup, versioning, and security compliance.
