Job Description Position Summary …

Are you up for the challenge?

Media agencies are an integral part of the advertising industry, so we work fast to match its lightning pace. Tight deadlines, and quick-turn-arounds aren’t out of the ordinary, so our designers need to be dedicated, motivated, and excited about getting the job done—and most importantly, concerned with giving it the ‘wow’ factor.

I can do that! But... what's a media agency?

We’re a crucial step in the advertising industry. If clients request the ads, and creative agencies create the ads, media agencies make sure you see the ads. Our media planners strategically plan and purchase media space (tv commercials, social media and digital ads, billboards, cool brand partnerships, and way more) to target the right people at the right time.

Key Responsibilities Alright... so what do designers do at Omnicom Media?

A better question would be: what don’t we do. As part of an in‑house design team, we’re here for (literally) whatever the agency and its clients want/need. We’re responsible for making the company and its agencies look as slick, professional, on‑trend and impactful. Projects can (and have been) everything up to and including:

Presentation Design

Event design

Infographics

Logos & Branding

Social media creative

Email blasts

Websites/microsites

Creative brainstorming

Literally. Anything. Else. We take any request thrown at us and figure it out!

And the Senior Designer role specifically?

You’d work closely with the Design Director and/or Project Manager to lead multi‑faceted design projects on tight deadlines

Produce strong design concepts and directions under a variety of brand guidelines

Brief freelancers on projects and act as ambassador for design quality/consistency throughout projects





Review and provide feedback for other designer/freelancers’ work

Ensure design quality, consistency, and delivery by project deadlines

Desired Skills & Experience What do I need to rock this job?

Software & Hardware

Be fluent with the usual suspects (Photoshop, Illustrator and Figma—Premiere or After Effects a plus)

Microsoft Office Suite (Especially Microsoft PowerPoint)

Comfortable on both Mac & PCs (Though Macs are used by design team)

Skills & Demeanor

At least 3-5+ years of experience as a designer

An eye for layout and typography, and creative flair

Strong communication skills, both written and verbal

Excellent organizational skills

Experience in the management of design projects from concept to completion

Willing to problem-solve within given design parameters, as determined by business‑needs (ex. Working in Powerpoint or Squarespace) with creative design solutions

You read everything and pay attention to detail: please include your favourite ice cream flavour on your resume

You’re able to interpret facts, figures and data and turn them into visually appetizing design

Comfort designing under tight deadlines
