Hi. We’re Article Group, a strategic advisory and creative studio.
That means we often work with product marketers at some of the most well-known tech companies (think: Google, Meta, Amazon, Salesforce etc.). It also means we’re a great partner for startups and early-stage companies looking to leverage our strategic and creative capabilities.
Our rapidly growing keynote business focuses on synthesizing visual storytelling with expert customer service. We craft bold presentations for some of the top industry leaders at brands like Amazon Web Services, AIG, and Crowdstrike.
We strive to make every slide and animation clear, beautiful, surprising, and useful. We want all of our speakers to be able to present with confidence, and aim to reduce friction in the keynote development process through the clarity that comes from a strong point of view.
Role description
The freelance Senior Presentation Designer at Article Group leads art direction, visual styling, graphic design, technical QC, and PowerPoint animation on assigned technical keynote presentations and event collateral. You will work directly with clients and other Article Group creative collaborators, and be accountable for creative problem-solving, PowerPoint presentation design and animation, and collaboration with other designers and animators. You will be accountable for delivering high-quality design output at proper technical specifications for each asset you are assigned.
You will help achieve creative excellence across design-centric workflows and deliverables. You will demonstrate consultative listening to grasp client objectives, persuasive presentation of creative concepts, and adaptive problem-solving when incorporating feedback.
Your background skews toward keynote and presentation design, art direction, and visual storytelling. You are capable of direct partnership with clients, including senior C-suite or VP executive speaker stakeholders. Ultimately, you are responsible for crafting and delivering work that ladders back to the core creative vision of assigned deliverables with team members and clients.
This role requires advanced PowerPoint design capabilities. Candidates should be comfortable designing high-visibility executive-level presentations, designing polished slides from blank pages, and iterating rapidly in live client sessions.
This role frequently requires direct, 1:1 collaboration with clients. Designers will be expected to work with clients as partners in the creative process, and become trusted, embedded members of the client keynote development team.
This is a freelance, project-based contract role with variable hours based on client demand and event schedules. You will work in a remote environment. Travel for on-site events and rehearsals will be required. You will find success in this role if you are senior enough to design and iterate quickly in PowerPoint with a high taste level in close, personable collaboration with client stakeholders.
