Senior Visual Communication Designer
Studio Science is seeking a strategic designer with experience helping market-leading brands communicate effectively. As a senior visual communication designer, your focus will be to create best-in-class brand & product marketing assets (ebooks, presentations, display & social ads, whitepapers, videos, reports, landing pages, etc.) for Fortune 100 brands. Additionally, you will support main-stage keynote presentations from initial slide development and refinement—potentially through on-site rehearsals.
You will actively collaborate with clients and team members to execute compelling, design-driven solutions. In addition, along with our Project Managers, you’ll spot issues before they turn into problems, manage changes in scope, and keep projects on time and on budget.
