Position Description
Arena is a political advertising firm headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah. We produce print and digital campaign advertising for Republican clients and candidates across the country. As we prepare for a very busy 2024 election cycle, we are looking for an Entry Level Graphic Designer to help out the full-time Graphic Designers. This would be a great way to build a portfolio for someone who has not had a lot of experience.

This position is seasonal/temporary and would start in January 2024 and work in our Sugar House office until November. This can be a full-time position, part-time or internship. This position is not available for remote work. There are no benefits or relocation packages as this is a temporary position. The hours are flexible but we require at least 4 hours a day in the office during regular business hours.

Position Responsibilities
Arena is one of the top Republican mail and digital advertising firms in the country. We pride ourselves on quality work, creativity, and speed. Applicants must be able to handle assignments quickly, produce clean layouts using Indesign and Photoshop primarily, and have an understanding of how to use images and typography. We are a fast pace firm with turnaround time based in hours rather than days like traditional firms.

We are looking for a person who will primarily be making edits to existing pieces, handling templated work where just text or an image needs to be changed. With time and experience, this person would be able to handle more designs from scratch. We look for a person who can work in a team environment, communicate well with others, and be able to work well under pressure. There will be times that are stressful in terms of workload and possible late hours during the busy times.

Position Qualifications
All applicants must have a minimum of one year experience with Adobe Indesign and Adobe Photoshop, and a current portfolio. Skills in After Effects, Figma and other Adobe design software is a big plus but not required. A degree isn't required for this position, but we prefer someone who has had some formal training in design. This could be a good opportunity for a student. Your portfolio should reflect your experience with both Indesign and Photoshop.
