About the role
We're looking for a talented contract graphic designer to join the Moncel team. You'll work across multiple teams - marketing, sales and courseware - producing a wide range of digital and print assets for our portfolio of compliance training brands operating in Canada, Australia and the US.
This is a varied, hands-on role that spans everything from websites and landing pages to course materials and sales collateral. Timing is key - we have a major brand relaunch coming up in the next few months, so there's significant work on the horizon. Hours will vary depending on what's on - expect some weeks close to full-time and others as light as 8 hours. Location is flexible but you must be able to work in EST.
What you'll do
Creating marketing assets across channels - social campaigns, email templates, landing pages, web pages, digital ads, event materials
Designing sales collateral that helps close deals - pitch decks, one-pagers, case studies, proposals, and leave-behinds
Owning brand consistency across every external touchpoint, ensuring everything that leaves the building looks like it came from the same company
Translating rough briefs from sales and marketing leads into polished, on-brand deliverables - often with minimal direction
Building and maintaining reusable design systems in Figma - templates, component libraries, and brand asset kits that let the wider team self-serve simple requests
Collaborating directly with sales, marketing, and leadership to understand what each piece of collateral needs to achieve and designing for that outcome
Assuming responsibility for testing all design deliverables against approved QA and compliance checklists and test plans
Iterating fast - this is a high-volume environment where speed and consistency matter as much as craft
What You Have
Expert graphic design skills across digital formats
Advanced Figma knowledge and experience; and experience working with Figma managed design systems
Advanced knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (Indesign in a must, Illustrator is a nice-to-have)
Proficiency in Canva to develop social media templates for use by community managers
Experience integrating AI tools into design workflows
Knowledge of responsive UI/UX best practices and modern web design
Skills to maintain visual consistency across deliverables without needing a style guide or approval for every decision
The ability to make confident typography, colour, sizing and spacing decisions that don't require multiple revision rounds
Skills to produce work that feels polished at first draft, not just after feedback
Good design theory skills so that you can articulate why a design works, not just that it does
High attention to detail - you catch things others miss
Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal
Adaptive and eager to learn - you embrace new tools and processes without needing to be pushed
A genuine passion for design and a curiosity about where the industry is heading
You're a good fit if:
Your portfolio shows a clear point of view - consistent visual standards, deliberate choices, and work that looks finished rather than assembled
You make confident typography, colour, and spacing decisions that don't require multiple revision rounds
You can articulate why a design works, not just that it does - you think in principles, not just pixels
You've experimented with AI tools in your design process (generative image, Figma plugins, content generation) and have opinions about what works
You're comfortable owning the full arc from brief to final asset - not just the middle
You produce work that feels polished at first draft, then refine with intent rather than guessing
You maintain visual consistency across formats and channels without needing a style guide for every decision
You're energised by new tools and workflows rather than protective of existing ones
You live in Figma - auto-layout, components, variables, and prototyping are second nature, not things you look up
You help build and manage design systems that other people can actually use, not just files that make sense to you
Your Qualifications
Degree or diploma in Graphic Design, Visual Communication, or a related field
5+ years of professional graphic design experience, with a strong portfolio of design work
3+ years designing sales and marketing collateral in a B2B or professional services environment
Demonstrated experience designing for web - websites, landing pages, and digital campaigns at a high standard
