• Support campaign work when needed, contributing performance-minded executions within larger brand initiatives.
• Manage multiple workstreams simultaneously, ensuring timelines, priorities, and deliverables are met with a high standard of execution.
• Prepare files accurately for delivery across digital channels, ensuring assets are production-ready and meet technical specifications.
• Collaborate closely with Creative, Performance, Copy, and Channel partners to ensure alignment and strong execution.
• Maintain organized files, clear versioning, and efficient workflows to support fast-paced production and iteration.
• Continuously look for ways to improve creative quality, efficiency, and impact through process, craft, and experimentation.
• Continuously evolve creative skillsets through inspiration, experimentation, research, and upskilling.
• Explore and integrate new tools, production techniques, and emerging technologies, including AI, to enhance ideation, workflows, editing craft, and execution, aligned with creative direction.

• Demonstrated excellence in design principles, including typography, layout, composition, visual hierarchy, color, and brand systems.
• High proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite.
