Junior Digital Designer

Postmedia Network

Title: Jr. Digital Designer – 6-Month Contract Location: Toronto, ON, Canada Job Description: Position: Jr. Digital Designer – 6-Month Contract Position Type: Full time, Temporary (Existing Vacancy) Location: Toronto, ON (Remote) The Company: Postmedia is a Canadian news media company representing more than 110 brands across multiple print, online and mobile platforms. Award-winning journalists and innovative product development teams bring engaging content to millions of people every week whenever and wherever they want it. This exceptional content, reach and scope offers advertisers and marketers compelling solutions to effectively reach target audiences. We are always on the lookout for talented individuals to join our team. The Opportunity: The Jr. Digital Designer is the creative engine and visual guardian of the company’s digital and brand experience. This role moves beyond traditional UI/UX by acting as a design representative across all business departments—from product and web development to sales and marketing. You will bridge the gap between functional user experience and high-impact brand storytelling, ensuring every touchpoint—be it a complex app interface or a high-stakes sales deck—is intuitive, cohesive, and visually stunning. What you’ll do: 1. Creative Process & Collaboration Multi-Disciplinary Design: Work directly with product managers, sales leads, and marketing to translate business requirements into creative solutions. Asset Management: Organize and manage a library of brand assets, ensuring the wider team has access to up-to-date, high-quality visual materials. Iterative Design: Participate in design reviews and incorporate feedback from various stakeholders while maintaining a focus on the end-user experience. 2. Product UX & Interface Design User-Centered Solutions: Assist in the design of wireframes, interactive prototypes, and high-fidelity interfaces for our suite of digital products and websites. Usability & Flow: Collaborate with the Sr. UX Designer to map user journeys that reduce friction and enhance customer satisfaction across all digital platforms. System Maintenance: Help evolve and maintain our centralized design system, ensuring components are scalable for both product and marketing use cases. 3. Cross-Departmental Brand Representation Sales & Growth Support: Design sophisticated, "pitch-perfect" sales decks and B2B collateral that empower our leadership team to close high-level partnerships. Unified Visual Identity: Ensure brand consistency across non-product departments, serving as the "design eye" for internal and external business documents. Marketing Design Execution: Architect and execute social media templates, display ads, and email campaigns that translate our brand voice into thumb-stopping visual assets. Who you are: UX Fundamentals: 1-2 years of experience (including internships or high-level bootcamps) in user interface and experience design. Design Tool Mastery: Advanced proficiency in Figma, Canva and other tools like the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) for brand and marketing assets. Presentation Design: A proven ability to design high-end decks (Google Slides/PowerPoint/Keynote) that prioritize clarity and visual impact. Marketing Awareness: Experience designing for social platforms (LinkedIn, Meta, Instagram) and an understanding of how design influences conversion rates in ads. Prototyping: Ability to create functional prototypes to communicate motion and interaction to the development team. Typography & Layout: A sharp eye for grid systems, hierarchy, and sophisticated typography across both digital and print mediums. You are a "UX Plus" Designer: You love the logic of a user flow, but you also have the "creative flair" required to design a beautiful brand campaign and high-fidelity mock ups. You are a Brand Guardian: You cringe when you see an off-brand font or a stretched logo; you believe consistency is the key to trust. You are Hyper-Adaptable: You can pivot from a deep-dive UX audit of a checkout flow to designing a set of LinkedIn ads without losing a beat. You are a Storyteller: You understand that a sales deck is a user experience and you know how to lead a viewer through a narrative visually. You are Growth-Minded: You are eager to learn from a Sr. UX Designer and want to see how design impacts every single department of a business. You are a Finisher: You have a "pixel-perfect" mindset and take pride in delivering clean, organized files that are ready for production or dev handoff. Benefits: Competitive salary Health and dental insurance Flexible work hours Direct mentorship from a Sr. UX Designer Opportunity to shape the visual identity of a growing suite of products Compensation: Employment offers presented to the selected candidate are based on a combination of qualifications, experience, responsibilities of the role and the candidate's location. Salary - $55,000-$65,000
