JOB SUMMARY
Eastside Catholic School is seeking a part-time Visual Content Designer (graphic design and social media) to join the Marketing and Communications team. Reporting to the Director of Marketing and Communications, this role is ideal for a visually driven creative who excels at producing dynamic, on-brand graphics and timely social media content—with a primary focus on athletics and gameday coverage in a fast-paced school environment.

The Visual Content Designer will play a key role in elevating the visibility of Eastside Catholic School through the creation of compelling gameday graphics, real-time score updates and student-athlete highlights.
