Working within a small team, you will also be expected to:
- select and prepare images for website and social media
- update standard marketing material across a range of collaterals
- help staff with graphics software troubleshooting

- know InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop inside out
- have a sound knowledge of video editing/motion design (using Premiere/After Effects)

- have an understanding and interest in good design practice for social media and the web
- have the aptitude to work on your own initiative and be proactive, and you can see a project through from initial concept to completion
- have excellent planning, organisational and time management skills, with the ability to balance tasks and priorities to meet strict deadlines
