We help operators simplify their operations, better understand their business, and create better experiences for their guests and teams.

As LEAP360 continues to grow, we're looking for a Creative Designer to join our marketing team and help us elevate the way our brand looks, feels, and communicates.

This is an opportunity for a creative professional who wants hands-on experience working with a growing technology brand while having a meaningful impact on its visual identity.

About the Role

• The Creative Designer will work closely with the Marketing Manager to bring LEAP360's marketing strategy and ideas to life through compelling visual content.

• This role is ideal for an early-career designer who is confident in their design abilities, eager to grow, and excited by the opportunity to contribute to a growing brand.
• We're looking for someone who doesn't just know how to make something look good, but understands why a design works and how visual communication can support marketing goals.
• You will have the opportunity to help LEAP360 become more visually consistent, more recognizable, and more competitive within the FEC technology industry.

Responsibilities may include:

• Editing raw video footage into polished marketing videos
• Creating short-form social media videos
• Editing customer testimonial videos
• Editing event and trade show footage
• Creating podcast video content
• Adding text, graphics, transitions, captions, music, and other visual elements
• Creating motion graphics and animated elements
• Repurposing longer-form video into shorter social content
• Maintaining a consistent visual style across LEAP360's video content

Bonus: Experience with video capture, photography, or operating basic video equipment.

• Comfortable working with AI-assisted creative tools and open to incorporating AI into the creative workflow

• Marketing collateral
• Video editing
• Motion graphics or animation, if applicable
• Other projects that demonstrate your ability to take an idea and turn it into compelling visual content

You'll help us:

• Support marketing campaigns with high-quality creative
• Help LEAP360 stand out against competitors
• Make the marketing team's creative process more efficient
• Bring new creative ideas and perspectives to the brand
• Most importantly, you'll help take creative production off the Marketing Manager's plate so the marketing team can focus more time on strategy, campaigns, content, growth, and execution.

• Opportunity to work directly with the Marketing Manager and contribute to a growing technology brand
