Graphic Designer

OpenSail is a top-tier digital marketing agency. We are both socially savvy and technically proficient, and we combine those two talents to achieve amazing results for our clients.

We’re looking to add a talented designer to join our team of digital marketing experts. Your role will be to support a team of dedicated professionals as they plan, create, and execute digital marketing campaigns. You will need to interact with different clients, and create a variety of designs: from creating static images to animated stickers, to lower thirds and simple video editing. What content is effective is always changing, so you don't have to know everything, but you have to know how to Google anything and be willing to learn and adapt.

Responsibilities:

  • Design graphics for a variety of digital media, including social media, digital ads, and websites
  • Adhere to existing brand identities, whether from explicit brand guides or implicit from existing assets
  • Communicate with clients and staff in a professional manner focused on collaboration, problem-solving and results
  • Negotiate complex projects and timelines with co-workers and clients to deliver work predictably
  • Manage your own tasks and updates in our project management software.
  • Stay abreast of new technologies within your sphere of responsibility

Requirements:

  • A very high degree of computer-literacy
  • Very competent with the relevant Adobe Creative Cloud programs
  • Experience using 3rd party design assets and 3rd party widgets and add-ons.
  • A comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles of design, and practical ability with them
  • Ability to live up to and adhere to the branding of major Canadian and international brands
  • Ability to exercise sound judgment and discretion
  • Creative and persistent problem-solving skills
  • Excellent interpersonal skills
  • Familiarity with social media platforms and formats

We all come from different backgrounds (Restaurant Owner, Salon & Spa Consultant, Management, Marketing, Journalism, Graphic Design etc), but there is one thing we all have in common and that is we love to see our clients thrive and succeed!
