**A note before you read further**

The world is changing fast, and so is this role. We can't fully tell you what this job looks like in six months. That's true of every role at Human Agency right now. What we need from you, no matter what: accountability, curiosity, and a builder-first mindset. If that sounds exciting, keep reading. If it sounds intimidating but you're still interested, let's talk. If none of that sounds like you, that's okay. This probably isn't your spot.

About Human Agency

We're scaling rapidly and have a growing pipeline of opportunities that demand exceptional talent across disciplines. Our mission is to bring on individuals, from creative producers to technical experts to entrepreneurial leaders, who can help us realize this next chapter of growth.

We are a company of doers. Leaders roll up their sleeves, teams work flat, and everyone contributes to what ships. Titles don't insulate us from feedback or basics. We invite critique, learn quickly, and keep raising the bar. The best ideas win here, no matter where they come from, because clients trust us to deliver the strongest outcomes every time.

Our clients' missions, products, and bottom lines are sacred. We immerse ourselves in their world, becoming stewards of their goals and partners in solving big problems. Every product, strategy, or asset we create must be both beautiful and functional; practical, usable, and designed for real-world impact.

Humans are our most valuable resource, and we only grow by hiring people who push us forward. Across strategy, engineering, design, data, and operations, we seek out teammates who raise the bar and make us better. Always hire up, never down.

We partner with organizations of all sizes to explore, design, and implement AI strategies that are secure, scalable, and human-centered. We believe AI should amplify human potential, not replace it, and we build with that conviction in every engagement. From advisory and tooling to implementation and education, we meet clients where they are and help them integrate AI in ways that align with their mission and values. Our goal is to empower teams to work smarter, move faster, and unlock new possibilities through thoughtful, responsible innovation.

And through it all, we lead with purpose, love, and adventure. We do meaningful work with people we care about, and we make the ride an adventure worth taking. Because at Human Agency, who we are and how we work are one and the same.

The Opportunity

Human Agency is growing, and so is our visual footprint. We need a sharp digital designer who can produce work that looks like it came from a world-class studio (on a contractor schedule, without hand-holding). Social graphics, pitch decks, and web design are the core of this role, and the bar for each is high.

This isn't a "make it pretty" job. Our clients are executives, founders, and mission-driven organizations. What we put in front of them has to be clean, intentional, and credible from the first glance. You'll be the person who makes that happen consistently, across a variety of contexts and brand identities that aren't your own.

You'll also bring AI into your workflow as a matter of course, not because we told you to, but because you've already figured out how to produce better work faster using it. If AI tools are a natural extension of how you think and create, you'll fit right in.

What You'll Own

You'll create digital and print graphics for social media, advertising, and internal initiatives. You'll edit short-form video content for social media and paid advertising. Additionally, you'll resize, format and adapt creative assets for different platforms and placements.

• Social Graphics — Design on-brand, scroll-stopping assets for LinkedIn, Instagram, and other platforms across Human Agency and client accounts, with fast turnaround and consistent quality.
• Web Design — Execute light web design and page updates across platforms like Webflow, Squarespace, or similar; you understand layout, hierarchy, and what makes a page convert.
• Deck Design — Transform rough content into polished, presentation-ready decks that communicate clearly and look like they belong in a boardroom.
• Brand Stewardship — Work within existing brand systems and adapt them faithfully; when guidelines don't exist, make smart decisions and document what you do.
• Asset Management — Keep files organized, exportable, and ready for handoff without someone having to chase you down.
