Your Mission

You will not just be "making things pretty." You will be designing with a clear strategic purpose. Your goal is to translate complex innovation concepts and corporate strategies into clear, compelling, and effective visual assets.

We are looking for someone who understands that great design is about communication, not just decoration.

• Support the creation of presentation decks and digital collateral for international activities and global campaigns, ensuring alignment with business goals and local nuances.
• Support partners and clients with visual assets for their communication activities.
• Turn datasets and research findings into intuitive, visually appealing charts, graphs, and infographics that tell a clear story at a glance (data visualization)
• Collaborate with the wider team to ensure consistency across channels.
• Social Media & Digital Storytelling
• Apply audience-targeted strategy to qualified lead generation and visual content creation.
• Create high-impact digital assets for social media (LinkedIn, X, Instagram) that drive engagement.
• Support the team in drafting design-ready copy for visuals, ensuring alignment with brand voice.
