The Opportunity
The Brand Creative Studio team drives the brand for Emerson Collective and our priority areas, working to change hearts and minds with world-class storytelling and creativity—big ideas such as advertising, marketing, and brand films, all the way to day-to-day content for brand channels. Design is also an output, from logos to event design and more. The Brand Creative Studio's work covers brand management, creative strategy, ideation, digital, production, and content creation roles, so there is a diverse range of responsibilities.
As the Design intern, you’ll work with the Creative team on graphic design projects that support Emerson Collective’s brand and key initiatives. You’ll contribute to 1–2 core projects from concept through execution and assist with daily design needs across digital, print, and social platforms.
You’ll take part in creative discussions at the intersection of brand building and design, collaborating with designers, strategists, and brand builders to bring ideas to life and explore how design shapes storytelling and impact. Ideal candidates have demonstrated design experience and proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, along with curiosity, creativity, and a collaborative mindset.
Applicants are encouraged, but not required, to include a portfolio (URL link or attached file). If you don’t have a portfolio, please share another example that showcases your design skills or creative approach.
