Company Background & Job Purpose
We are a fast moving web marketing company from Sydney, offices located in North Balgowlah. Our services are mainly premium entertainment services for mobile phone users. We are operating internationally.
We’re looking for a creative designer with sufficient skills in mainly PS, Flash, HTML and CSS with the ability to output a high volume of designs on an ongoing basis, working close together with the business owner.
Duties & Responsibilities
You need to be able to produce landing pages and banner ads that grab the attention. Usually, you will be given ideas, examples, rough concepts that have to be translated into appealing online marketing creatives. Landing pages need to be slick, smooth and convey excitement while the banners need to attract attention – and lots of it!
The landing pages themselves are usually fairly simple: you won’t be building multi-page sites, rather a lot of different styles and variations on those styles. You’ll need to then build the pages in HTML and test in all web browsers. Some pages will need to integrate a flash-based quiz, which will involve modifying an existing Flash system.
Banner ads will require static versions in all common sizes and will usually need to be animated. A mix of .gif and Flash animated banners will be expected. Additionally we will want to introduce some banners that pull data live from external sources, so basic Actionscripting would be advantageous.
The priority will be in your ability to quickly produce large volumes of work to the standard we require. You can propose your own system of tracking changes, amendments and additions which allows you to be able to keep an overview of what is «out there».
You will also need to learn how to interpret Google analytics data to be able to analyse the results of your work and help management to base decisions on this information.
A typical workflow would be as follows:
1. Create initial concept for an existing campaign or propose drafts based on an idea handed to you
2. After concept is signed off, refine and make any required changes
3. Convert the psd to HTML or concept into flash and incorporate into our landing page server (no specialist knowledge required)
4. Test page to ensure all forms & messages work as anticipated
5. Test in FF, Safari, Chrome, IE6, IE7 and IE8 on Windows and Mac (where appropriate)
6. Submit final version for testing & sign-off
Education & Qualifications
Required skills:
• Photoshop CS3 (or higher)
• Flash CS3 (or higher)
• Ability to write clean HTML & CSS code, preferably by hand
• Bucketloads of creativity and the ability to quickly realise designs
Additional skills that would be viewed favourably:
• A general understanding of Javascript concepts
• Knowledge of Google Analytics
Experience
Web marketing experience would be preferable.
