  • Make confident typography decisions, including font pairing, hierarchy, spacing, and strategic text placement
  • Create poster-style and editorial compositions that combine lettering, portraits, and other imagery
  • Occasionally design landing pages with strong visual hierarchy and an understanding of how designs translate to responsive web builds
  • Turn ideas, raw content, and copy into clear visual stories that hold attention from the first slide to the last
  • Write or refine supporting hooks, headlines, captions, and carousel copy when needed
  • Build reusable design systems and templates without making every client or piece of content look the same
  • Present your design rationale clearly and respond constructively to feedback
  • Manage multiple client projects and deliver high-quality work at a fast, reliable pace
  • Collaborate closely with copywriters, content strategists, clients, and the wider YSC team
  • Use AI tools thoughtfully to speed up research and iteration while keeping the final work original, considered, and brand-specific

  • Experience designing social-first content, especially multi-slide Instagram carousels
  • Experience creating or contributing to brand identities, brand packs, and style guides
  • Strong working knowledge of professional design tools such as Adobe Creative Suite and/or Figma; Canva fluency is also useful
  • Experience designing for digital channels, with an understanding of landing pages, responsive layouts, and practical web constraints
  • Good copy judgement and the ability to write or improve concise hooks, headlines, and supporting social copy
  • Comfortable working independently, making design decisions, and taking ownership from brief to final delivery
  • Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple client projects simultaneously
  • Strong communication skills, openness to feedback, and the ability to explain your creative choices
  • Preferred: Experience designing landing pages and understanding how designs are implemented in code
  • Preferred: Agency, creator, coaching, or personal-branding experience
