Getty Photography Jobs (NOW HIRING)

About Education & Work: Public education is a pillar of American prosperity and civic life. From birth to school, college, and work, everyone deserves the opportunity to learn. But for too many students, education is inadequate, underfunded, and disconnected from good jobs. New America’s Education & Work issue area is dedicated to providing the best of education to everyone, especially the historically marginalized, starting in the earliest years and continuing throughout their lives.

About the Role: New America’s Education & Work programs are seeking a  Design & Data Visualization Specialist that will provide comprehensive data visualization, design, and multimedia support. The ideal candidate is a versatile multimedia designer that will enjoy working on a variety of creative and technical digital projects; the candidate should have a keen eye for detail, brand guidelines, and accessibility best practices. The Design & Data Visualization Specialist will report to the Director of Communications, Education & Work, but collaborate closely with a very wide range of people, including colleagues across the Education & Work portfolio and in Central Communications.

• Identify and download photos through platforms such as Shutterstock and Getty for analysts to use in their publications.

• Embed data visualizations and designs onto the website according to best practices and New America brand guidelines.
• On an occasional as-needed basis, lay out content in a PDF using New America branded templates.

Video Production:

• Edit and produce simple videos optimized for social media to promote recent publications and Education & Work messages, respond to breaking news, and repurpose recordings of New America events.
• Design simple but impactful graphic elements to include in videos as needed.

Qualifications:

• At least five years of professional experience in design, data visualization, and brand management;
• Knowledgeable in design tools such as Figma and those in Adobe Creative Cloud, as well as web content management platforms; willing to learn and use other technical programs and applications as necessary;
• Knowledgeable in data visualization best practices and tools such as DataWrapper;
• Solutions- and deadline-oriented, can easily collaborate with non-designers and cross-functional colleagues, and understand the needs of the end users; and
• Keen eye for detail and brand guidelines, equally comfortable giving and receiving constructive feedback, and ability to juggle multiple projects at once on a timeline.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with video editing and production programs, such as Canva Pro or Premier Pro; interest in growing your skills in this area as Education & Work programs increasingly move into multimedia storytelling and communication;
• Familiarity with accessibility standards and best practices; and
