About the role

We are a fast-paced, collaborative Design-Agency specializing in branding, digital media, and visual storytelling. Our team thrives on collaboration, creativity, innovative thinking and delivering exceptional design solutions for a diverse range of clients.

Role Overview

We are seeking a highly organized, forward-thinking Senior Graphic Designer who specializes in AI-driven design workflows and excels in client service. This role bridges the gap between traditional design principles—composition, typography, color theory—and cutting-edge AI methodologies to produce stunning, high-impact visual assets at unprecedented speed and scale.

As a key member of the creative team, you will manage projects from initial kickoff through to final production. You will balance visual branding with client-service excellence, bringing a positive, problem-solving mindset to a fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities

AI-Driven Ideation & Execution: Utilize advanced AI tools (inclusive of all in Gemini Suite) to rapidly prototype, iterate, and execute high-quality visual concepts. Agency & Brief Auditing: Review and audit creative files and presentation decks from design agencies prior to finalization, guaranteeing that all assets requested in the initial brief are captured and specifications are flawless. Print & Production QA: Perform rigorous quality assurance on all design files (including bespoke and New Product Introduction 2D print assets) to ensure they are print-ready, accurate, and strictly adhere to required technical specifications, retail codes, and naming conventions prior to being sent for print production. Branding & Campaigns: Lead creative concept development for branding projects, digital campaigns, print media, and social media deliverables, as well as ad-hoc asks from Creative and Art Directors. Production & Project Support: Manage the workflow and distribution of product launch assets through internal production management systems, while simultaneously providing dedicated design support for in-house bespoke projects. Stakeholder Engagement: Present and discuss creative ideas clearly to both internal teams and external clients. Partner with product teams to translate abstract briefs into compelling visual narratives. Presentation Design: Design and refine presentation flows tailored to specific audiences and high-stakes client meetings. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with product teams to translate abstract briefs into compelling digital, print, and social media campaigns. Continuous Improvement: Continuously research, test, and integrate emerging AI design tools, plugins, and methodologies into the company’s creative ecosystem. Asset & Repository Management: Maintain, organize, and update production creative decks, tracking spreadsheets, and centralized file repositories to ensure seamless access and version control for all creative assets.

Qualifications

Post-secondary diploma or degree in fine arts, graphic design or a related field. 5+ years of experience in graphic design, art direction, or a digital agency environment, with at least 2 years actively integrating generative AI into your professional workflow, inclusive of the Gemini Suite. Strong foundational knowledge of print production requirements, technical file specifications, and pre-press QA processes. Demonstrated experience in a project-management adjacent role, with a strong ability to track deliverables, manage timelines, and coordinate between internal teams and design agencies. Exceptional organizational and time management skills; with a proven track record of maintaining clean file structures and master tracking spreadsheets in fast-paced environments. Strong team player who thrives in client-facing environments, utilizing a collaborative growth approach to build alignment and drive project success. Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to liaise effectively with internal teams and clients. Meticulous attention to detail while in a fast-paced environment and being capable of auditing technical file formats, as well as spotting AI-made errors or brand inconsistencies in reviews. Heavy proficiency in traditional graphic design software, specifically Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign) and Figma. Hands-on experience navigating and organizing large-scale production management systems, tracking spreadsheets, and cloud-based file repositories.

What We Offer

A creative and collaborative studio culture. Opportunities to work on diverse and exciting client projects. Professional development and training support. Flexible work arrangements (hybrid or remote options available). Competitive salary and benefits package.
