Project Overview

Planetary CARE is rapidly building out our global launch program, broadening our reach from a core crew out to our global network and beyond. To do this, we’ll be activating a new website, social media tools, newsletters, and more. We're looking for a talented, creative student to help us with the creation of new graphic design assets to support this launch!

Our ideal match has experience with (or is excited to learn!) style guides, templates, social media planning and execution, as well as various iterations of marketing materials.

Project Scope

Planetary CARE needs a team of talented creatives with a strong understanding of business needs.

Successful candidate(s)

Team must have a strong understanding of design fundamentals and a wide range of experience in multi-channel media design and production that will elevate our visual representation across digital / email, website, and social channels.

We require independent self-starters who help us go from zero to running, as we have very little content today. It’s a great opportunity to build something new and have a huge impact with a team working to drive change at the intersection of food and climate.

This project provides a unique opportunity to drive the visual identity and presence of an early-stage, global startup. The student will interface primarily with the Marketing Director, and can expect to collaborate with many other members of our global Marketing Circle.
