• Support game launches, IP partnerships, seasonal campaigns and always-on content with polished, social-first design assets.
• Develop and maintain editable templates and scalable creative systems that enable faster, more efficient content production.
• Partner closely with the internal creative and social team to evolve and uphold Nex's social visual identity, templates and creative toolkit.
• Optimize creative specifically for social platforms, ensuring assets are designed for engagement, readability and mobile-first consumption.
• Adapt campaign creative into platform-specific social assets while maintaining consistency across channels.
• Collaborate with the Social Lead, content creator and agency partners to bring creative concepts to life from storyboard through final execution.
• Stay current on evolving social design trends, motion styles and platform creative best practices to continuously elevate the brand's visual presence.
• Thrive in a fast-paced environment, balancing quick-turn reactive requests alongside larger campaign deliverables.

Required Qualifications

• Strong portfolio of social-first creative (carousels, Stories, static graphics, motion assets) across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects) or equivalent design and motion tools.
• Experience building and maintaining editable templates and scalable creative systems.
• Strong understanding of mobile-first, platform-specific design best practices.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in gaming, family, or consumer tech brands.
• Experience supporting game launches, IP partnerships, or seasonal campaigns.
