Digital Graphic Designer (Contract)

Role overview

Klue is looking for a Digital Graphic Designer to support its Brand & Design team by producing polished, on-brand visual assets at pace. This contract role is focused on creating materials that help the company present a sharp, consistent visual identity across ads, social content, podcasts, articles, presentations, and other promotional touchpoints.

You will partner closely with the Brand team and incorporate input from Content and other stakeholders to turn briefs into finished assets. The work includes podcast cover artwork, article hero images, infographics, banners, PDFs, and similar marketing collateral. You will work from established brand systems and templates where possible, while also developing new templates and design assets that improve consistency and efficiency. The role also involves using AI-powered tools and workflows to generate visuals and animations, then refining the results into brand-aligned output.

What you will be working on

• Translating briefs, specifications, and feedback into ready-to-publish design assets.
• Creating graphics for articles, resources, banners, PDFs, podcast artwork, infographics, and other promotional materials.
• Maintaining a cohesive visual identity by building on existing artwork and brand structure.
• Improving workflow speed by reusing templates and developing new ones that scale.
• Keeping projects moving through clear communication over Slack and email, plus participation in daily check-ins and ad hoc meetings.
• Using AI-first design tools to generate concepts, test variations, speed up production, and improve final output.
• Continuously building your own skills while contributing to the development of others on the team.

What success looks like

• Assets are delivered on schedule, stay true to the brand, and require very little rework.
• Brand and Content stakeholders can depend on a recognizable and consistent visual style.
• New templates noticeably improve the team’s speed and efficiency.
• Your designs raise the overall quality standard of Klue’s outward-facing materials.

Requirements and qualifications

• Strong working knowledge of Figma, Photoshop, and InDesign.
• Comfort using existing brand systems, artwork, and templates as a design foundation.
• Clear and proactive communication skills for working with distributed teams through Slack and email.
• Ability to manage your own time, tools, and workflow with minimal supervision.
• A genuine interest in learning, expanding, and improving your design capabilities.

Nice-to-have experience
