Graphic Designer

The studio at Public Policy Institute runs on Card Sorting, strong coffee, and the conviction that a Graphic Designer should be in the room for every big call. Backed by 1 years of creative experience, you'll own key initiatives, partner closely with the team, and earn $55,000 - $84,000.

Key Responsibilities

• Localize creative for the Yonkers, NY market while preserving brand consistency
• Reconcile legal's caveats with a layout that still breathes
• Knit copy and art into a single argument instead of two parallel monologues
• Produce polished assets using Persona Development and Relationship Building from concept through final delivery
• Pull through one design-led visual idea across web, print, and the Yonkers, NY storefront
• Wring a campaign system from an one-line creative tagline
• Borrow structure from film editing to fix a Wireframing sequence that drags

What You'll Bring

• 1 or more years steering creative projects end to end
• Fluency across Wireframing and Card Sorting, with strong opinions on both
• The patience to mentor without taking over the keyboard
• Solid Relationship Building grounding, plus Adobe XD you can pick up on the fly
• Comfort being accountable for a growth-minded outcome in a part-time role
• Experience thriving in a forever-learning, deadline-driven setting like Public Policy Institute
• A communicator who writes the meeting recap nobody asked for but everyone reads
