Senior Designer

 

*FILLED

Our client is looking for a Senior Designer who is passionate about practicing visual design and creating outstanding digital experiences. You will be joining a vibrant team in helping create meaningful work for the healthcare industry.

The ideal candidate is able to do the work, and step in when help is needed. You go above and beyond with little or no direction. You’re a solid digital visual designer with a typography background who understands UX/UI strategy and design principles.


Background

The Company is a full-service digital media company, and by ‘full service’ we mean: if it’s digital, we do it. From video production to web development, we create top-shelf digital products. We pride ourselves on our ‘digital imagination’. It’s about more than just being creative. It’s about exploring and breaking through boundaries; with child-like enthusiasm, we believe that anything is possible. Our clients share our enthusiasm and that has helped propel our growth.

The Company is a digital agency with a focus on Healthcare. Over the past 20 years, many of the biggest names in Canadian Pharma have turned to us for our innovative approach to digital marketing and virtual sales.

We believe marketing to Health Care Providers (HCP) costs too much, so we do things differently.

We find HCPs, patients, and consumers wherever they may be, online or off, by using our proprietary targeting engine which leverages 15 years of campaign insights to optimize messaging across an array of platforms. We start with a comprehensive digital strategy that looks at the entire customer experience and measures everything to make sure we’re delivering ROI.


About working for For This Company

As we grow, so too will you. You will be given the freedom and responsibility to take your game to the next level. We are small enough that we all know each other by nickname but large enough that we have moved beyond the frustrating chaos that defines most smaller firms. At Media Platforms we encourage people to have not just ambitious career goals but also big dreams that we can help them realize. About time We’re growing fast and hiring fast, so apply fast. We’ll contact fast you if we like what you send us: resume and digital portfolio.
