- Strong working knowledge of Google Workspace — especially Google Slides and Google Theme Builder required
- Solid understanding of multi-channel publishing and digital production workflows
- Ability to work within brand guidelines and execute consistently across deliverables
- Comfortable executing independently on fast-turnaround ad hoc projects
Nice-to-Have Skills:
- Experience in a Fortune 200 or large enterprise creative environment
- Motion design or video editing experience (After Effects, Premiere Pro) — longer term video opportunities may open up
