Job
Title: Graphic Designer / Marketing Officer
Status: Full-time
Compensation: $47,000/annually
Location: Atlanta, Georgia
Job
Description: After my tenure as contractor, I was
granted a full-time position during a company-wide re-organization.
I became the graphic designer for the Retail line of business
within the company as of January 2006.
My
priorities were the production and design of all print materials
pertaining to SunTrust Retail services. On a day-to-day basis,
I would produce anywhere from 10 to 30 pieces of work, ranging
from flyers, cards, invitation, to posters, signs, and billboards.
I would create files for clients/branches to be able to print
from their own printers, or generate templates for them to
use and customize to their own liking. With higher-priority
projects, I would be required to also work with the Production
department and their vendors and create products in which
would require being loaded onto mechanicals for outside printing.
I
work with a variety of clientele; communications managers,
planners, art directors and agencies to produce SunTrust materials.
I work with a variety of agencies, both local and out-of-state,
and maintain lines of communication open in order to work
together to produce the best products.
Regardless
of the two brand and identity alterations I have worked through,
it is still my utmost important responsibility to maintain
the corporate identity, and work to maintain the brand image.
