About the Opportunity

Are you a creative powerhouse who lives and breathes design, social media trends, and visual storytelling? On behalf of a forward-thinking, fast-paced Design Agency based in Pretoria, we are searching for a vibrant Junior Graphic Designer and Social Media Content Creator. This agency loves to push boundaries, experiment with fresh trends, and have a blast while doing it. They are deeply passionate about scaling start-ups and elevating established brands.

Your Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Visual Storytelling: Design eye-catching, on-brand graphics, layouts, videos, and motion graphics across all digital and social channels.
• Social Media Strategy & Management: Plan, create, and schedule daily content. You will keep the agency’s clients ahead of the curve by jumping on viral trends, audio, and platform features.
• Campaign Experimentation: Test out new formats, visual styles, and interactive content to see what truly resonates with audiences.
• Brand Consistency: Maintain a flawlessly high standard of visual execution. You''ll balance wild creativity with sharp attention to typography, alignment, and brand guidelines.
• Community Engagement: Bring your bubbly personality to digital spaces—responding to comments, sparking conversations, and building genuine brand loyalty.

What We Are Looking For

We need a unique blend of creative chaos and structured execution. You are the perfect fit if:

• You are fun, bubbly, and bring an infectious, positive energy that naturally translates into your content.
• You are forward-thinking and experimental—always looking to set trends rather than just follow them, and eager to try new tools like AI features and fresh editing techniques.
• You are meticulous and reliable, with a eagle eye for detail (misplaced pixels, typos, or off-centre logos bother you!).

Qualifications & Requirements

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in graphic design, Visual Communication, or a closely related field.
• Experience: 1 to 3 years of professional experience in graphic design and social media content creation (agency or in-house experience is a major plus).
• Technical Skills: Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere Pro/After Effects). Experience with Canva and mobile video editing apps is a bonus.
• Platform Knowledge: Solid understanding of algorithms, formatting specifications, and best practices for Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, Instagram (Reels/Stories), and YouTube Shorts.
• Transport: Must have your own reliable transport.
• Portfolio: A strong portfolio demonstrating both clean, strategic design and creative, experimental social media content. Note: Candidates must have their own active online presence.
