Description

We are a creative team of architecture, engineering and design professionals who serve both public and private sector clients. Together, we share one Core Purpose: To plan, design, and consult to create healthy and thriving communities. Our offices are full of genuine, fun, and down-to-earth people who believe in fostering an inclusive culture where all employees feel they belong. Loving where you work, who you're working with, and what you're working on is important to us, which is why we put our people first-they're at the heart of everything we do. From professional growth and development support and opportunities to give back to your community, to flexible work schedules and competitive benefits, we have a genuine interest in the whole you. So, if you're just as passionate about what you do as we are, then we'd love to hear from you!

Our Corporate Communications team is looking for an experienced videographer/producer/storyteller with demonstrated professional production experience, including storyboarding, shooting and editing. In partnership with our Senior Graphic Designer, this position will be responsible for developing videos, animations and other visual storytelling materials to support the firm's reputation and brand. Live production experience is a plus. This role requires the ability to travel-including overnight stays-across the United States. The amount of travel will vary based on the time of year and projects, but during our heavy production season, (January-May) travel may be as frequent as 25%.

This role is also responsible for providing graphic design content for materials such as advertisements, presentations and email communications, along with digital/interactive, social and website assets. As a result, the successful candidate will posses solid graphic design experience across multiple platforms. Website/UX experience is a strong plus.

What do you need to shine in this role? In addition to shooting, producing, editing and graphic design expertise, you are able to work within brand guidelines while also creatively "pushing the envelope." (Be prepared to show off your portfolio/demo reel of most recent work!) You thrive in a deadline-driven environment, balance multiple projects-taking them from start to finish with minimum oversight while collaborating with design colleagues to perfect your craft. Motivated self-starters will enjoy the opportunity to help shape our video strategy-identifying best practices and mapping out new tactics for communicating internal and external messaging.

What we offer: You'll get to work with a skilled team of collaborative, creative and passionate designers who are committed to continuous improvement that leads to high-quality, engaging content. Every day is different, and we thrive on bringing our best to every project we take on. Gresham Smith is consistently ranked as a "Best Place to Work," and we are committed to fostering a culture where employees can bring their whole selves to work, feel valued and have the opportunity to thrive-both personally and professionally.

Responsibilities:

  • Support the storyboarding, production, capture and post-production of firmwide and project-specific videos, animation projects and live-streamed events.
  • Enhance communication efforts through the creation of engaging digital, interactive, print and other designed materials that reflect the firm's corporate identity and brand. This includes, but is not limited to, digital ads, social media graphics, printed advertisements, presentations, tradeshow signage, event invitations and other graphics.
  • In addition to videography, capture still photography of people and projects.
  • Oversee and coordinate photography shoots of our people and projects by third-party photographers.
  • Help maintain our digital asset management library.
  • Work collaboratively with corporate communications colleagues and marketing staff to ensure a consistent, integrated brand perception and user-experience.
  • Provide strategic graphic design direction to support the business objectives of our internal stakeholders and external client-facing market leads.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree plus a minimum of three years' experience in video shooting, editing and production. Experience producing corporate or documentary-style videos is preferred.
  • Demonstrated design experience using Adobe CC applications-specifically, Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Acrobat, After Effects, Premiere Pro and Dreamweaver.
  • Digital still photography experience, including understanding of effective composition, lighting and storytelling.
  • An eye for clean and artful design, along with the ability to generate clear ideas and execute designs from beginning to end.
  • Strong organizational and time-management skills, attention to detail and focus on accuracy.
  • Ability to build and maintain excellent interpersonal relationships among a wide variety of stakeholders and co-workers to promote teamwork and sense of collaboration.

Qualifications That Are Not Required but Will Make You Stand Out:

  • Knowledge of the architecture and engineering industry or related fields.
  • Experience managing third-party photographers for complex photoshoots.
  • Experience managing and developing video strategies for social media channels.
  • Moderate to advanced skills in digital/interactive design, as well as familiarity with web- development tools.
  • WordPress CMS, basic HTML and CSS knowledge/experience.
