Graphic Designer (Part Time)

Trimax Mowing Systems is a New Zealand-owned company designing, manufacturing and exporting premium commercial mowing equipment to the UK, USA, Australia and Europe. We are a family-owned business with a strong values-led culture, a people-first approach, and a global reputation for quality and performance.

Due to continued growth, we are seeking a Graphic Designer (entry to intermediate level) to join our marketing team based at our Tauranga headquarters. Reporting to the Customer Engagement Manager, you will work alongside other designers and marketers to produce high-quality marketing collateral for New Zealand and international markets.

YOUR ROLE

You will be responsible for producing accurate, on-brand marketing collateral that supports Trimax’s global marketing and sales activity. This role suits a designer who takes strong ownership of their work and has high personal standards for quality, accuracy and follow-through.

• Produce marketing materials including eDMs, brochures, catalogues, sales flyers, social media assets and digital advertising.


• Edit and adapt existing designs for print, web and digital formats, often to tight deadlines.


• Support global marketing coordinators and social media managers with timely delivery of assets.


• Develop an understanding of Trimax products, customers and markets to make sound design and image selection decisions.


• Ensure all work follows Trimax brand guidelines and visual standards.


• Manage multiple tasks and priorities, keeping stakeholders informed of timelines and progress.


• Maintain accurate file naming, version control and tidy digital asset management.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR 

This role requires more than technical design ability. We are looking for someone who takes pride in delivering work that is accurate, considered and right-first-time.

• High attention to detail with strong self-checking habits before submitting work.


• Clear ownership of tasks from brief through to completion.


• Proactive communication to clarify scope, urgency and expectations.


• Ability to manage multiple jobs without work slipping or requiring repeated follow-ups.


• A willingness to learn, develop new skills and use modern tools (including AI) to improve efficiency.


• A collaborative team player who contributes positively to team outcomes.

TO BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS ROLE

• Fluency in Adobe Creative Cloud (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator).


• A portfolio demonstrating solid design fundamentals and print/digital execution.


• Understanding of brand identity systems and corporate design.


• Ability to follow briefs and instructions accurately.


• Confidence to ask questions when requirements are unclear.


• Previous experience in a similar role with the ability to contribute effectively from day one.

This role offers between 20–30 hours per week. While the exact hours are negotiable during recruitment, they will be confirmed on appointment and remain consistent week-to-week. Ideally hours are spread across 4-5 days. As the role supports international markets, some flexibility outside standard working hours may be required. 

All applicants must be eligible to work in New Zealand.
