Nice-to-Have Skills

• Experience supporting a brand refresh, rebrand or visual identity evolution.
• Motion design, animation, video editing or storyboarding experience.

  • Adapt ideas across formats and tools (Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, presentation platforms) without losing quality, including clean files and production-ready handover.

• Evolve the Degreed visual identity
  • Work with the Senior Creative Lead to strengthen and scale Degreed's visual identity across web, campaigns, events and sales materials.
