The Economic Policy Institute (EPI), the nation's leading progressive economic think tank, is seeking a talented and motivated graphic designer to join our communications team.
The core of the designer's job is designing content and features for EPI's websites, publications, and other products. The designer is a key contributor to the production and promotion of EPI's work, providing thoughtful and attractive designs that transform often complex economic ideas into digital products that educate and change minds. In a given day, the designer may work on several different projects, often with quick turnaround. Beyond handling conventional design work, the designer will be a big picture thinker who seeks ways to use design to further EPI's mission of improving the lives of working people.
Please apply if you are in your element doing things like:
· Designing and producing graphics for the web, such as share graphics, infographics, and publication features
· Presenting data through effective design of charts, graphs, maps, and data visualizations
· Designing new webpages and website features, from wireframes to HTML/CSS mockups
· Designing and managing multimedia products, including presentations, videos, and interactive features
· Proposing improvements to the look and feel of our website and publications;
· Designing specific website features, tools, and navigational elements; UX/UI design
· Maintaining and developing the organization's brand aesthetic through logos, word marks, and promotional materials
We are looking for a graphic designer but will consider web designers and web developers if they have relevant design experience. Applicants with backgrounds in data visualization, web development, communications, policy, or related fields are encouraged to apply.
We are looking for someone who has:
· A great graphic design portfolio that includes design for the web
· Expertise in the tools, principles, and best practices of web presentation
· Experience communicating data visually, through charts, graphs, maps, and infographics—or an interest in developing those skills
· Experience developing design templates for the web and print
· Experience creating compelling graphics for social media
· The ability to articulate design ideas to others and collaborate with diverse groups of people
· The ability to juggle multiple projects and deadlines
· The desire to contribute new ideas and approaches to EPI's online presence and communications strategy
