Job Description - Visual Communications Designer


Role Summary


We are looking for a Visual Communications Designer who can translate ideas into clear, compelling, and consistent visual outputs across presentations, web, social media, and short-form video.


This role is responsible for how the company looks, sounds, and communicates visually across all platforms. You will own the visual expression of ideas — from pitch decks and websites to AI-generated commercial-style videos and social content — while maintaining strong brand consistency.


This is a hands-on, autonomous role suited to a mid-weight with strong storytelling and communication skills.


Key Responsibilities


Visual Communication & Brand Consistency



  • Translate ideas, messages, and concepts into clear visual communication

  • Maintain consistency in look, feel, and language across all company outputs

  • Act as a visual brand guardian across presentations, web, social, and video

  • Improve clarity and cohesion of existing materials


Presentations & Storytelling



  • Create, update, and maintain PowerPoint and Prezi presentations

  • Structure information into clear narratives and visual hierarchies

  • Design presentations for pitches, internal communication, and commercial use


Web Design & Content



  • Build, update, and maintain basic websites using WordPress and Elementor

  • Ensure visual consistency, usability, and responsiveness

  • Translate brand and messaging into effective web layouts


Social Media & Short-form Content



  • Create visual and video content for company social media platforms

  • Manage and maintain company social media accounts

  • Adapt content for different platforms while maintaining a cohesive visual language


Short-form Video & AI Content Creation



  • Create short commercial-style videos using AI tools

  • Develop engaging video content aligned with brand and messaging

  • Stay up to date with emerging AI tools and workflows


Idea-to-Execution



  • Take high-level or loosely defined ideas and turn them into:

    • Clear presentations

    • Short-form commercial videos

    • Effective social media content



  • Work independently from brief to delivery


Required Skills & Experience


Essential



  • 3 - 5 Years proven experience as a Visual Communications Designer or similar role

  • Diploma (or higher) in Visual Communication or similar.

  • Strong portfolio demonstrating clarity, storytelling, and consistency

  • Advanced PowerPoint skills; Prezi experience is an advantage

  • Solid experience with WordPress and Elementor

  • Experience creating content for social media platforms

  • Comfort using AI tools for creative content, particularly video

  • Strong understanding of layout, typography, and visual hierarchy

  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple projects


Advantageous



  • Experience working with or developing brand guidelines

  • Understanding of commercial and marketing communication


Seniority



  • Mid-weight

  • Must be comfortable owning visual communication end-to-end


What This Role Is Not



  • Not a pure graphic design role

  • Not a developer role

  • Not a social media strategist role


This role is for a designer who thinks in communication, not decoration.
