Our client is a specialist Australian marketing agency, home to an experienced team of graphic designers, writers and digital marketing specialists, working with a portfolio of recruitment agency clients throughout New Zealand, Australia and Asia. They’ve been growing rapidly over the last three years and as a result, they have be opened a brand-new delivery office in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Description

As one of the first few roles we’re recruiting for their Kuala Lumpur office, we’re looking for an experienced Graphic Designer to work alongside their Malaysian-based Operations Manager and established design team in New Zealand, taking responsibility for the delivery of graphic content for the Australian and New Zealand clients.

The workload is tremendously varied, ranging from full re-brands through to digital ads, brand brochures and office redesigns.

There are two very simple objectives in this role:

• Make their client’s look fantastic
• Ensure all work is delivered consistency

Because of the diversity of the role, this is the tricky bit! We are looking for is someone who can clearly demonstrate practical knowledge with a number of key tools (listed below) and more importantly be able to demonstrate the attributes that we know will make you successful with our client.

Tools

• Adobe (obviously!) – the basics are obvious (Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop), but also a good practical knowledge of After Effects as a lot of their work is online animated adverts (e.g. GIFs and HTML5 files).
• Microsoft – a comprehensive understanding of some of the more advanced functions around Word and PowerPoint.
• Google Web Designer – not essential, but nice experience to have

Attributes

• The ability to multi-task– you need to enjoy hopping between jobs, being distracted throughout the day with new tasks, and generally embrace the feeling of always having something else to do.
• Attention to detail– although you’ll be working on loads of different projects and client accounts, it is very important that everything is delivered accurately to the very best standard possible, every time.

The role is mid-level to senior level, however it is intended to be hands-on, so a willingness to get stuck in with (even with tasks that can sometimes be menial) is key. There is plenty of opportunity to learn from the other designers and the broader marketing teams, plus they are really open to trying new ideas and tools, if that’s your thing.

As one of the first employees in their new Malaysian team there are lots of career opportunities that will open-up as they’re rapidly expanding the team and business.

We’re looking for someone to start this role ASAP, so if you fancy something new and future-focused then get in touch with us today. Please send your CV to mustafa.ali@profession.asia or call / WhatsApp +60142626242.
