Jr Designer - Vancouver, WA | Dick Hannah Dealerships
10808 NE Coxley Dr, Vancouver, WA
Full Time
Dick Hannah Dealerships is looking for a Junior Designer to help create clear, useful, on-brand marketing built with a customer-first mindset.
You'll work across a wide range of channels, including social, digital advertising, email, websites, print, dealership materials, presentations, and other marketing needs. Some projects will start with an established campaign or template that needs to be adapted across multiple formats. Others will give you the opportunity to develop ideas and contribute your own design thinking.
This is an entry-level role for a designer with approximately 1 to 3 years of professional experience who has strong fundamentals, enjoys learning, and wants exposure to a broad range of real-world marketing.
At times, you'll work closely with a Senior Designer who will provide creative direction, feedback, and mentorship. As your skills and judgment grow, we want you to take on more ownership and increasingly solve design problems independently.
