Graphic Designer at Workweek Media Inc.

We’re looking for a Graphic Designer to (1) lead branding for Workweek Creators, (2) support our marketing team, and (3) help the broader Workweek brand grow.

(1) Creators — Workweek Creators produce a variety of content across multiple channels (i.e. newsletters, podcasts, social media) about broad topics (like venture capital) and more niche topics (like cannabis or climate tech). As we onboard new Creators, you’ll collaborate with them to develop visual assets for their media, like logos and brand guidelines, event flyers, and infographics.

(2) Marketing — The Workweek Marketing Team is tasked with growing our Creators’ brands via both paid and organic efforts. The Graphic Designer will support them by creating social media advertisements and other marketing-related assets.

(3) Workweek — Cultural relevance is key to Workweek. We’ll collab with the Graphic Designer on quick-turnaround projects, like spinning up a Succession-themed t-shirt or Elon Musk joke merch. Simply put, we love to have fun, and want our audience to have fun with us.

Ideally, this Graphic Designer loves variety in their work, is both open to and able to take action on feedback, and can run with projects without heavy supervision. Above all, we’re looking for someone who’s stoked to use their graphic design skills towards accomplishing our mission — and wants to have a lot of fun doing it.

Note: This is a full-time position. You’ll always be able to work remotely wherever you want, but we’re planning to open an office in Austin, TX, in the near future for anyone who wants to work IRL. All work will be done in English.
