  • Publish and manage content across Punchcut's social media channels.
  • Build and launch website landing pages and routine site updates.

Brand Asset Management
  • Maintain template libraries of presentations, proposals, case studies and assets.
  • Help ensure that marketing and sales materials remain accurate, up to date, and easy to access.
  • Identify opportunities to use AI-driven automation to improve the quality, speed, and efficiency.

Research and Performance
  • Research relevant industry, technology, design, and marketing trends.
  • Track competitor activity and emerging content opportunities.
  • Monitor campaign, website, and social media engagement and performance.
  • Help test new formats, channels, and approaches to increase visibility and engagement.

QUALIFICATIONS:
  • Minimum 1-3 years of professional, freelance, or equivalent experience in marketing design, digital marketing, graphic design, social media, or a related field.
  • Degree in graphic design, visual communication, marketing, or a related discipline-or equivalent practical experience.
  • A strong portfolio demonstrating graphic design, typography, layout, visual storytelling, and attention to detail.
  • Proficiency with contemporary design and presentation tools, such as Figma and Adobe Creative Suite.
  • Experience designing presentations, social media content, digital campaigns, or web-based marketing materials.
  • An understanding of brand systems and how to apply them consistently across channels.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • A proactive, resourceful approach and a strong sense of accountability.
  • Comfort working in a collaborative, fast-moving, and evolving environment.
  • Curiosity and a willingness to learn new tools, formats, and ways of working.

BONUS POINTS FOR:
  • Interest in user experience, artificial intelligence, product design, and emerging technology.
  • Hands-on work in Framer, WordPress, or a similar website platform.
  • Familiarity with website analytics, SEO, social analytics, or marketing performance tools.
  • Skilled in video editing, animation, or motion design using tools like After Effects or Premiere Pro
  • Experience using generative AI tools for research, writing, design exploration, or production.
  • Background supporting a consulting, professional services, technology, or creative organization.

COMPENSATION:
  • For W-2 Temporary Employees:
    • Hourly Rate: $35.00 - $50.00 per hour (based on skills and experience)
    • Benefits: Eligible for sick leave and 401k
  • For 1099 Independent Contractors:
