What are the responsibilities and job description for the Designer position at THIS JANUARY?
Hello, internet 👋
We’re looking for a midweight to senior designer or art director to join our team here in Logan Circle, DC. We’re a small agency that’s more interested in finding a person that’s the right fit, rather than a person with the right resume or title, but in this position, visual design and expressing ideas visually will be the core part of the role.
The right candidate will have had a title like "designer" at some point in their career, and have identity design / graphic design experience.
We’re looking for someone who can —
- Make incredible brand design work
- And is equally excited to make conceptual comps like OOH and stunt ideas
- Be a conceptual thinker in addition to a strong designer
- Create presentation decks that tell the story of the creative work that's been done
- Present work in a charismatic, fun, engaging way that's as strong as the work itself
- Manage 1-2 interns
For what kinds of projects?
- Brand Identity
- Integrated campaigns
- Social retainer accounts
- Miscellaneous fun creative challenges
You should apply if you're excited to —
- Join our goofy, fun 20-ish person team
- Grow! We are looking for the right person to invest in who can grow within our team
- Learn by doing, not being afraid to take initiative, step up, and figure something out
- Make a lot of fun, weird, cool things!
Quick Facts About This January —
- We have a killer, dog-friendly office on 14th Street/Logan CircleÂ
- We work in-person at the office on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (we WFH Weds/Friday)
- We have healthcare and vacation days, it's all pretty standard...
- One thing that's non-standard is we close the office for 3 weeks per year, so that we're 100% sure everyone gets a break
How to apply for this role —
- All we need is your portfolio link!
- We'd also love to hear about your role in your top 2-3 projects. What was your contribution in one or two sentences?
- In this position, your taste is a big factor. What's one place we can see a peek at that? Your Instagram? Your are.na? (This is a bonus!)
