• Designing and maintaining PowerPoint and Prezi presentations for pitches, commercial use, and internal communications.
• Structuring information into clear narratives and effective visual hierarchies.
• Building and updating basic websites using WordPress and Elementor.
• Ensuring web layouts are responsive, usable, and aligned with brand messaging.
• Creating and managing visual and video content specifically for social media platforms.
• Developing engaging, short commercial-style videos using AI tools and workflows.
• Working independently to take loosely defined ideas from the initial brief through to final execution.

Requirements:

• 3 to 5 years of proven experience as a Visual Communications Designer or in a similar professional capacity.
• A Diploma or higher degree in Visual Communication or a related field.
• A strong portfolio that demonstrates storytelling, clarity, and brand consistency.
• Advanced PowerPoint skills, with experience in Prezi considered a distinct advantage.
• Solid, hands-on experience using WordPress and Elementor for web maintenance.
• Proven experience in social media content creation across various platforms.
• Proficiency or comfort in utilizing AI tools for creative content, specifically for video production.
• A deep understanding of typography, layout, and visual hierarchy.
• The ability to work autonomously and manage multiple projects from start to finish.
• Experience developing or working within established brand guidelines is advantageous.
• A strong grasp of commercial and marketing communication strategies.
