Virtual Graphic Design Assistant

Virtual Personal Assistant with Graphic Design, Video Editing, and Social Media Skills
Location: Remote (Virtual Position)

Job Description:
I am seeking a talented and motivated Virtual Personal Assistant to join me. The ideal candidate will be proficient in graphic design using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, have experience with video editing, and be skilled in managing social media platforms. This role requires a creative and organized individual who can assist with various tasks to support our business operations.

Responsibilities:

1. Create visually appealing graphics and designs using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop
- I'll often have examples of designs I would like to create for a collection. I'll provide you with these designs and talk about what I'm hoping we can make, and then I will turn you loose to help create some of those. It's really important you have decent design experience. Most of my design project will be about utilizing files and formatting files for printing. But I will need help at times with finishing a collection once I start it. This means I may have a dress designed and I need you make different colour variations or different background variations in the design.
2. Edit and produce high-quality videos for promotional and marketing purposes
- I'll give you content and I will need it edited. You'll want to be proficient in using ChatGPT, and any AI that can help with narration and voices. We will make short form videos for social media, and maybe some longer ones at times. It's really important that you use a drag and drop type editor to make the process quick. I recommend Adobe Premier for longer videos and Adobe Premier Rush for quick videos. Whatever video editing software you feel comfortable with is fine, as long as the output is the right aspect ratio for each social media platform.
-I am also working on creating tutorials that can be monetized. I'll create clips of the tutorial, and I'll need you to edit and help make it into a great video.
3. Design Placement- you'll help with design placement on new products, and maybe even older products, by communicating to our virtual team what looks best. You may need to provide an example they can work off of. We work with repeat all over print designs mostly, and it's important to get the sizing right for each product and design. You'll need to have a strong background in product mockups using layer warp, and liquid filter effects. If you don't have that knowledge, you'll need to be able to pick it up fairly quick. Here are a few tutorials on what I'm talking about:
4. Assist with administrative tasks, including email management, scheduling, and project coordination.
- I have other tea ---------- mbers I manager, but I am the owner and there may be times where I need you to follow up with them about projects.
5. I use a laser to make some products. I utilize SVG files. I need an assistant who can learn this quickly to make cut files for products, or who already knows it. We make belts, earrings, and other things to size. They need to exact and precise for good laser cutting. There are lots of tutorials if you don't know how to do this, but generally if you have Adobe Illustrator experience, it's quite easy.

Qualifications:

Proven experience in graphic design with proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop
Experience in video editing with proficiency in video editing software (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, Rush, etc)
Strong knowledge of social media platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, Tiktok, and Youtube
Excellent organizational and time management skills
Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

The best candidate that performs well for this job and is smart, able to solve problems easily, learn new graphic designs skills as needed, and can deliver exceptional quality can expect for the pay to increase up to the $10 to $12 per hour after 6 months to one year. It will be entirely dependent on the candidate's ability to fill the role as needed.
