The kind of design job that compounds

Not every experienced designer wants another stream of one-off campaigns. Some want to learn an audience, build a strong publication system, sharpen the work issue after issue - and see the creative quality compound.

That is the opportunity at Tulip Media Group. We are a high-growth custom publishing company built around recurring-revenue (MRR) Client-Partner relationships. Our designers return to meaningful publications, deepen their understanding of the brand and audience, and make each issue stronger than the last.

The result? Better creative continuity, more ambitious editorial thinking and work that has earned six design awards in the past two years.

THIS IS NOT A MANAGEMENT ROLE

It is a hands-on creative role for someone who wants to raise the bar, own the details and make Client-Partner collaboration feel remarkably easy.

What you will own

- Award-calibre editorial design. Lead visual concepts, typography, hierarchy, pacing, grid systems and image direction for magazines and high-value advertising.
- Production-ready execution. Take approved content through polished final files while protecting brand standards, deadlines, accuracy and prepress quality.
- Client-Partner delight. Translate feedback thoughtfully, explain your creative rationale clearly and deliver an Easy, Effective and Enjoyable approval experience.
- Continuous improvement. Introduce meaningful refreshes, layout innovations, templates and quality controls that improve the work without making it generic.
- Selective digital support. When editorial priorities are secure, help Tulip Marketing execute approved web, blog,



landing-page, PPC and lead-generation assets.

What strong fit looks like

You have taste without ego, urgency without chaos and the confidence to recommend the strongest solution. You care about the reader, the Client-Partner and the final production file - because all three matter.

- Long-form craft. You understand advanced typography, editorial hierarchy, pacing, image direction and high-page-count production in Adobe Creative Suite.
- Creative judgement. You can interpret a brief, make a point of view visible and explain why the design will improve attention, comprehension or action.
- Print fluency. Prepress, colour, image resolution, packaging, proofing, version control and final-file accountability are part of your craft.
- Client confidence. You present recommendations with clarity and tact, respond quickly and surface risk before it becomes a surprise.
- Ownership. You estimate realistically, honour commitments and own the result rather than the excuse.

What you bring

- Three or more years of skilled design experience, including direct responsibility for long-form editorial or magazine work.
- A portfolio with at least two substantial long-form projects, several polished advertisements or supporting assets,



and at least one web, landing-page, campaign or lead-generation example. Your personal contribution should be clear.
- Advanced Adobe Creative Cloud capability, especially InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator.
- A post-secondary credential in graphic design, visual communication or a related field - or equivalent professional experience demonstrated through your portfolio.

Why Tulip Media Group

- Recurring work with creative depth. MRR relationships mean you can understand a publication deeply and improve it over time - not start from zero every month.
- Growth with creative ambition. Your ideas will shape real Client-Partner publications at a growing company with six design awards in the past two years.
- Profit First participation. When Tulip succeeds, the team shares in that success.
