• →Strong command of Adobe Creative Suite and Figma

• →Has worked as a strategic collaborator to cross-functional partners to deliver work that drives business results

• →Comfort operating as a creative team of one: able to set priorities, drive creative strategy and execution work, and know when and how to bring in outside help

• →Experience building or evolving brand architecture through M&A or multi-brand growth — and the ability to execute on a decision to merge, sub-brand, or retire

• →A strategist that is genuinely energized by doing both brand strategy and execution—defining the frameworks and owning the tools to deliver amazing work

• →Experience briefing and managing freelancers or agencies

• →Experience designing for the social good sector preferred
