Canva Template Designer (Project-Based)

We’re looking for a Canva-savvy designer to help us build clean, minimal, and reusable templates that can be used weekly by non-designers on our marketing team. This is a project-based role, not full-time, and we’re looking to hire someone who can start right away.

Responsibilities:
? Create 4–6 Canva templates based on our podcast brand
YouTube thumbnail (1920x1080)
Instagram quote post (1080x1350)
Carousel format (1080x1080)
Other graphic templates for promotional ads

? Refine and simplify templates so they are easy to reuse internally
? Apply a tech-forward, professional design aesthetic—nothing cluttered or overly stylized
? Use placeholder elements, clear font hierarchy, and locked sections where necessary

Qualifications:
? Proven experience designing in Canva for social media or branded content
? Strong eye for layout, spacing, and typography
? Ability to design for non-designers (templates must be foolproof and reusable)
? Experience working with content in the tech, business, or podcast space is a plus
? Portfolio of Canva templates or social graphics required

???? This is a one-time project.
???? Rate: $50–$150 per project depending on scope and experience.

Please also answer the following questions in your email:
?You’re designing two templates - one for a clean quote post, and one for a carousel explaining a 3-step tech concept. What’s your thought process to keep both aligned but distinct?

? A teammate drops a Canva file in your lap and says, “Make this look clean and modern.” There’s no style guide, and you only have 30 minutes. What’s your move?

? You built a great template - but when another tea ---------- mber uses it, the end result looks off-brand. What would you adjust or add in your template to make sure future use stays clean?

? Describe a time when you created a graphic or template for someone else to reuse. What worked well, and what would you improve next time?

? If you had to design a social post about a tech topic (like cloud security or AI), what visual tone or elements would you use to make it feel modern but easy to understand?

? What’s one mistake you see in a lot of Canva templates - and how would you avoid it?
