- Creating custom design assets, patterns, and vector work
- Editorial support: helping edit and refine articles, proofing layouts, flagging inconsistencies
- Content assistance across formats, from social to print
- File management: organizing digital assets and keeping our systems tidy
- General creative and administrative support: coming up with ideas, refining work in progress, handling organizational tasks, and collaborating closely with our other creative assistant

Skills required:
- InDesign (magazine layout, multi-page documents, print-ready files)
- Photoshop (retouching, upscaling, background removal, asset fixes)
- Illustrator (custom assets, pattern creation, vector cleanup)

What we're looking for:
- A current college student, recent graduate, or early-career creative in graphic design, visual arts, communication, or a related field
- Great taste and a strong eye for design
- Incredibly organized, meticulous, and self-directed
- A generalist who enjoys wearing multiple hats and learning as they go
- Available Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm Philippine Standard Time (GMT+8)

Compensation:
Starting allowance of US $700 per month, paid at the end of each month. Negotiable for candidates with significant experience.
