Superawesome is hiring a
Marketing &
Brand Designer
The designer a marketing team wishes they had in-house.
Straight up: this is maternity cover. Someone on the team is going on leave, and we need a reliable pair of hands to keep their work moving while they're out — at least 12 months, likely longer. We can't give you a firm end date yet.
And here's the honest version of the work: it's not rocket science, and we won't pretend it is. You'll work directly with a client's marketing department, inside a brand and a set of standards that already exist. You're not inventing anything from scratch — you're working within the boundaries that are already drawn and keeping the output sharp and consistent: emails, campaigns, the booth they show up to a trade show with. No BS. It just needs to be good, every time, and on time.
This is what we expect of you to be able to produce.
What you'll actually do
- Create and update marketing callouts — the workhorses of the day-to-day.
- Design marketing materials across the board, mostly email designs.
- Produce social media visuals, PDP icons, and the supporting assets a campaign needs.
- Take on 2D video and motion design when the work calls for movement.
- Handle print and packaging: brochures, business cards, the occasional packaging job.
- Design and prep trade-show booth walls for print. This is a real chunk of the role — you'll own getting large-format work production-ready and right the first time.
What you bring
- A portfolio that shows range and taste, not just one trick.
- Real command of the fundamentals: layout, type, color, hierarchy. Done well, consistently.
- Print production literacy. You understand bleed, color, resolution, and what happens between your file and the finished thing.
- Comfort working directly with a client's team — you can take a rough ask and turn it into something sharp without hand-holding.
- You sweat the details and you hit deadlines. Both. Not one or the other.
Bonus points
- Motion and 2D animation chops beyond the basics.
- Large-format and environmental / booth design experience.
- Packaging or structural design background.
The arrangement
- It's maternity cover: at least 12 months, possibly longer. We can't fix an end date yet.
- This is work for hire, not employment. You invoice us.
- It's not a full-time workload, but it needs full-time availability for communication. Be reachable through the local 9-to-5 — or shifted toward New York hours when the client's online.
- Some requests, sometimes (not often) are same-day. The work itself can usually flex by a day or two; being reachable can't. Our client needs information from you about when they can expect you to deliver in order to orchestrate other things in their process.
About Superawesome and how we work
Who we are
Superawesome is a design studio in Novi Sad. We've spent years doing the work most agencies talk about and few actually do: showing up for clients, owning the unglamorous parts, and treating design as everything around the artifact, not just the artifact itself. Small team, high standards, no theater.
How we work
You'll have real ownership and real deadlines. We don't babysit and we don't micromanage. We expect you to care about the quality and the business reasons behind it. In return you get work that ships, colleagues who are good at what they do, and none of the agency politics that wear people down.
How to apply Hit the Apply button. Tell us who you are, leave a link to your portfolio, and say a few honest words about why this is the work you want to be doing. No cover-letter theater. We read everything, but respond only to selected candidates.
Good luck.
