About the Role
As a Digital Designer, you will play a key role in developing engaging digital content that reflects evolving social media trends while maintaining a consistent and premium brand identity. Working closely with creative and content teams, you will help bring campaigns to life through compelling visual storytelling, producing high-quality creative assets that drive audience engagement and support wider business objectives.
Key responsibilities:
