You’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves and dive into anything from event posters to multi-page layouts— and you understand the importance of consistency in government and corporate communications.

You’ll bring:

• Tertiary qualifications in Graphic Design (or similar) and/or extensive relevant experience
• A solid portfolio showing versatility and a strong command of design principles
• Experience of using Adobe Creative Suite on a Windows system
