Graphic Designer/Production Artist (REMOTE)

Design creative content for food tech projects focused on saving the world

The Good Food Institute (GFI) is on the forefront of the movement to use food technology and markets to solve some of the world’s biggest problems, from climate change and global hunger to antibiotic resistance and the exploitation of billions of animals annually.

How You Will Make a Difference
In this role, you will have the opportunity to create a variety of content and media for GFI including but not limited to print materials, reports, websites, presentations, eComms, fundraising materials, and icons. This is a production-heavy role for a savvy designer who can fearlessly chase down information and creative solutions. The Graphic Designer/Production Artist will be responsible for ensuring the food revolution is visually powerful by:

• Designing and producing media including print, digital, presentations, and event materials.
• Designing and producing graphics for multiple digital channels including web, mobile, and social platforms.
• Contributing to brand development from concept to production.
• Preparing and exporting files for print.
• Researching and staying informed of aesthetic and technical design trends.
• Image search, retouching, and color correcting photography.
• Managing GFI’s digital assets.

Who We’re Looking For
The Graphic Designer/Production Artist must have:

• A bachelor’s or associate’s degree with a concentration in design, and a minimum of two years of professional design experience.
• Fluency in InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Microsoft Word, and PowerPoint.
• Impeccable organization and attention to detail, including clean internal file management.
• Ability to develop creative solutions independently, but a desire to collaborate and grow with guidance from the Senior Creative Manager and Communications Department team members.
• An understanding of the value of brand consistency (both in design and messaging) across all media.
• A swiss-army like reserve of knowledge and tools to problem-solve creatively and efficiently.
• Passion for learning about current aesthetics and trends.
• Comfort working remotely and in a rapidly growing and evolving organization.
• Strong support for GFI’s philosophy and mission.

Some additional skills that would be beneficial in this role, but are not required, include:

• The ability to create animation for digital channels.
• Experience editing video.
• Experience creating iconography, and/or infographics.
• Familiarity with the Google Suite.
