Job Description

Job Title: Graphic Design Volunteer for the Marketing Resource Center

Department: Marketing and Communications 

Reports To: Executive Director, Lisa Prince Fishler

Director of Operations, Caitlin Quinn

Type: Unpaid, but basically a fountain of warm fuzzies, karma points, and rad vibes.

 

 

Commitment: Flexible as a pool noodle — and just as summer-appropriate! 1-3 hours a week over the summer would be ideal, but we won't complain about getting more of your valuable time!

 

 

Responsibilities:

  • Designing super cool, feel-good stuff that inspires one (or more) of these reactions: awe, laughter, a warmed heart, happy tears, inspiration, action, and motivation, to name a few.

  • Aforementioned super cool things may include (but are not limited to, because the world is our oyster!): flyers, social graphics, infographics, multi-page PDF documents, illustrations, image overlays and embellishments, postcards, and website design components.

  • Efficient turnaround of finished pieces

  • Reliable communication with the Director of Operations or Executive Director, depending on the project.

  • Maintaining and celebrating the HeARTs Speak brand, mission, and reputation.

  • Humoring our infatuation with illustrated small animals, donuts, and cats that resemble celebrities.

 

 

Qualifications:

  • Proficient in Canva is a must, as many templates are created there

  • Proficiency in the Adobe Creative Suite, including Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator a definite plus!

  • Proficient in Microsoft Office applications

  • Working knowledge of typography, image sizing and cropping, composition, and digital illustration. Video-editing experience is a major plus!

  • An appreciation and affinity for modern, playful design aesthetics

  • Experience and/or interest in design for the social space.

  • Ability to work from home or using your own equipment and software.

  • Ability to communicate clearly through the written word, using proper grammar and spelling.

  • Brimming with creativity and the drive to experiment, ideate, and imagine!

 

 

Other Stuff:

HeARTs Speak is a nationally-recognized 501c3 nonprofit organization uniting art and advocacy to increase the visibility of shelter animals. First impressions are our specialty and we’re dedicated to inspiring change for shelter pets across the globe through a variety of programs that leverage creativity and collaboration! 

 

As our graphic design volunteer, you’ll be a central part of our ability to provide quality educational and inspirational resources to our partner animal shelters and artist members across the world, empowering them to more effectively promote and support their lifesaving missions. Your work will contribute significantly to creating a world where no shelter animal goes unseen!

 

 

Alrighty then! Let’s do it.

To apply, send an email/cover letter, resume, and samples of your work* to Lisa and Caitlin via team@heartsspeak.org

 

*And even if you don’t have all of those things, but DO have a whole lot of interest in helping our mission, still reach out. She’s very much looking forward to meeting you!
