Our client, a creative agency known for bold, boundary-pushing design work, is seeking a Senior Visual Designer for a freelance/contract opportunity. This role calls for a designer who thrives on big, unexpected ideas and has the craft and execution skills to bring them to life — someone equally comfortable as a strategic thinker and a hands-on doer. The ideal candidate challenges briefs rather than simply answering them, brings strong storytelling instincts to both concept and design, and understands how interaction and motion principles inform great visual work.
- This is an ongoing freelance assignment. Pay rate range: $70-$90 / hour
Responsibilities:
- Lead ideation and execution across typography, layout, color, and composition with a high level of craft and polish
- Push design thinking beyond the initial ask, introducing bold and unexpected creative directions
- Translate big-picture concepts into fully realized, well-executed design work
- Challenge creative briefs when appropriate to elevate the final output
- Apply interaction and motion principles to design execution, not just visual layout
- Explore multiple creative directions before narrowing in on a final approach
- Stay attuned to emerging design trends without being driven by them
- Engage in self-directed creative exploration with minimal oversight
- Apply foundational UX principles and systems thinking to design decisions
- Build prototypes as needed to test interactions and refine the user experience
- Collaborate cross-functionally with other departments to elevate the overall creative product
- Challenge and inspire fellow team members to think beyond conventional solutions
- Build presentation decks with a clear, compelling narrative that balances design depth with persuasive storytelling
- Present work directly to clients, remaining open to feedback and collaborative refinement
Required Qualifications:
- Strong visual design craft, including typography, layout, color, and composition
- Demonstrated ability to generate bold, original creative concepts beyond expected solutions
- Strong conceptual and visual storytelling skills
- Solid understanding of interaction and motion design principles and how to apply them to execution
- Working knowledge of UX fundamentals and systems-level design thinking
- Comfort with prototyping to test and refine interactions
- Proven ability to work independently and drive self-directed creative exploration
- Strong presentation skills, with the ability to build and deliver decks that balance design rationale with big-picture storytelling
- Experience presenting directly to clients and incorporating feedback collaboratively
- Strong cross-functional collaboration skills
