About This Position

Imagine what you could do here! At Penn Creative, we create compelling print and digital solutions for sophisticated clients. But we’re not just looking for a graphic designer. We’re seeking a leader who can create exceptional design concepts and contribute to our company's growth and success. To succeed here, you need business acumen, a desire to learn and grow, the ability to embrace critiques and challenges, and an eagerness to go the extra mile.

You’ll collaborate with a team that includes other designers, writers, marketing account managers and project managers.

The ideal candidate for this position has a can-do, will-do attitude, is passionate about the creative process, takes initiative, and is looking for a career opportunity —not just another job. 

How to Apply

Please submit your cover letter, resume and portfolio. All elements must be submitted to be considered for this position. Please take care to address your cover letter to the company owners by name, Jenny Strauss and Sierra Skidmore. Due to the volume of applications, we will only respond to the most qualified candidates. (No phone calls, please.)

Essential Functions

  • Collaborating with clients and the Penn Creative team during all stages of the creative process.
  • Providing input on the best strategies to meet client goals.
  • Developing original concepts and staying abreast of the latest design trends.
  • Thinking strategically about each project’s unique needs, from both a design and business perspective.
  • Sharing your ideas in a positive, constructive manner.
  • Learning and managing client brands.
  • Managing your projects and your schedule to meet deadlines.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of graphic design experience in an AGENCY setting (excluding internships/ student work/freelance).
  • A formal education, including a graphic design degree.
  • Passion for delivering outstanding design work!
  • Leadership skills and business acumen.
  • Expertise in InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop (You MUST know how to use these programs correctly, especially InDesign.)
  • Proficiency in all production process steps (preflighting, collecting, resizing, etc.). 
  • Experience with Microsoft Office Suite and Google Suite.
  • Social media experience. (You must be versed in the top social media platforms.)
  • Experience with email marketing platforms such as Mailchimp.
  • Experience in creating animated graphics and video editing.
  • Experience with PowerPoint.
  • Proficiency with website design, especially the Duda platform or similar drag-and-drop website creators (a coding background is not required).
  • Experience with HTML and CSS is a plus. 
  • Copywriting and copyediting experience is a huge plus.
  • Ability to work efficiently and manage details accurately under tight deadlines—and with a positive attitude.
  • Extraordinary time management, organizational and interpersonal communication skills.
  • A fearless spirit—you need to embrace taking risks, asking questions, seeking clarification, and learning new things.
  • Go the extra mile and pitch in wherever needed. (“That’s not my job!” isn’t in our vocabulary.)
