DISCLAIMERS - “A”:
- You MUST speak, write, and understand English fluently; we will not provide any training in this area.
- You MUST possess a computer, have a strong knowledge of internet use, and have a strong knowledge of Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and Word; we will only provide advanced training in these areas.
- You MUST be self-sufficient; this is not a job where you will be given a detailed description or a step-by-step of what to do. You will get an idea or a vision we have, and it will be up to you to execute however you wish.
- You MUST be proactive; if we must chase you to remind you of deadlines & targets, you are not the person we are looking for.
- You DO NOT need to have any coding or programming language; we will provide all necessary training for non-coding website design using Wix.com.

We invite everyone who can perform visual design regardless of their education, qualifications, or experience to apply. We understand that careers change and that hobbies become careers – we also understand that sometimes all one must be given is the first chance to jump–start a successful career.
If you can demonstrate during the interview and the short design skill-demo project that you can fulfill this role, we will be happy to offer it to you – that simple. This includes everyone from current students with no prior experience to actively employed professionals just looking to get some extra hours doing something they love. We are looking for people who can add genuine value to our business while adhering to our principles and goals – if you prove to us that you can do that, we will not bother analyzing your previous experience, education, or training.

- Help establish a tangible and recognizable firm’s branding and visual identity that can be standardized.
- Develop innovative and eye-catching data visualizations, infographics, charts, and diagrams to enhance the clarity and impact of the internal and external business visual elements across all destinations.
- Incorporate typography, color schemes, and layout techniques to create aesthetically pleasing and easy-to-navigate designs.
- Conduct thorough quality checks to ensure accuracy, proper formatting, and adherence to agreed-upon project requirements and deadlines.
- Spearhead all website design efforts, attend pre-planned web design training and planning sessions, provide innovative ideas, oversee progress, and maintain deliverables on an agreed-upon timeline.
- Create branded social media elements and other promotional marketing materials needed to execute our reach strategy.
- Design elements to be published within future book projects and all other commercial publishing, both physical and virtual.
- Attend mandatory business meetings and events both virtually and in-person (if applicable).
