Graphic Designer/Communications Specialist

Currently Seeking: Graphic Designer/Communications Specialist

What do you want out of your design career?

To apply your creativity to the real world? To create fantastic visuals that help projects come to reality? To avoid fonts like Comic Sans? To help communities across the southeast and beyond craft their vision for more sustainable places?

You’ll do it all at TSW.

We are an award-winning planning and design firm based in Atlanta, with additional offices in Chattanooga, Tulsa, and Lexington. For 35 years, we have been on the cutting edge of progressive community planning and dynamic urban design—and we want you to be a part of it.

We are seeking a full-time Graphic Designer/Communications Specialist to join our team in the Atlanta Office. The position requires exceptional graphic design skills and collaboration with our three studios (Planning, Landscape Architecture, and Architecture) across our four office locations.

It’s a dynamic role–you’ll do more than just crank out graphics. You will gain hands-on experience with our planners and designers, work with clients, craft narratives, and help our firm grow. We want to collaborate with you on how to best communicate ideas and concepts, and tell the stories of our clients and our company.

A typical day may include:

  • Developing high-quality, compelling graphics for a variety of projects and marketing initiatives
  • Supporting our studios in developing project documents and deliverables, including creating infographics, conceptual planning and design graphics, and project branding packages
  • Developing proposals and interview presentations as part of the RFP/RFQ process for municipalities and private developers
  • Developing and managing the production of marketing collateral such as project sheets, resumes, brochures, advertisements, and presentations

We do require…:

  • A portfolio of work that demonstrates exceptional graphic design skills and the ability to communicate a variety of ideas and concepts
  • One of the following:
    • Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design, Industrial Design, Studio Art, Illustration, or similar
    • 2+ years of experience in graphic design and/or communications/marketing, preferably in the urban planning, architecture, or design industry
  • Fluency in the Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop)
  • A passion for community and the built environment, with an ability to translate technical concepts into intuitive, clear graphics for broad audiences
  • Ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment and manage multiple projects simultaneously
  • Ability to set priories and meet deadlines

  • Ability to physically work out of our Atlanta office at least three days per week
