The Walk Agency is a growing integrated marketing agency, and we’re looking for a talented, grounded mid-weight Graphic Designer to help lift the quality and consistency of our creative output across brand, digital and campaign work.

We’re looking for someone with creative design superpowers and a superb eye for detail to join our growing agency. A proactive and energetic superstar who can take a brief, shape strong visual ideas, and carry them through to polished, on-brand execution – while collaborating closely with strategy, content and digital.

We think this could be a great opportunity for a designer who wants to be a part of high quality agency work without committing to the full-time grind – perhaps a return-to-work parent, a freelancer looking for more stability, or anyone who wants meaningful, interesting work that fits around life.

The role

Title: Mid-weight Designer
Type: Part-time (3 days per week)
Location: On-site in either:

  • Melbourne office, or
  • Sunshine Coast office

We’re flexible on how the days and hours are structured. School hours are absolutely fine if that’s what works for you. We also respect clear boundaries – when you’re off, you’re off.

You’ll be the go-to designer for day-to-day creative needs: shaping and implementing a wide range of design projects across clients and channels. You’ll work closely with the founders and senior team, becoming a trusted creative partner and a steady design presence in the agency.

What you’ll be doing

Brand, campaign and marketing design

  • Designing brand and campaign assets across digital and print (social, display, eDMs, landing pages, brochures, one-pagers, presentations and more)
  • Taking brand guidelines and applying them consistently and creatively across different touchpoints
  • Helping develop and refine visual identities – from moodboards and concepts through to final rollout assets
  • Creating clean, on-brand presentations and pitches that help us communicate ideas clearly and persuasively
  • Producing layouts and artwork that are accurate, production-ready and well-organised

Digital and content design

  • Designing digital marketing assets – social tiles, ads, eDMs, basic UI elements, simple web page layouts and banners
  • Preparing and optimising graphics for web (responsive layouts, file sizes, formats)
  • Collaborating with writers and strategists to bring content and campaigns to life visually
  • Working within platforms or with developers to ensure designs are implemented faithfully and practically

Production, quality and consistency

  • Owning the final-mile polish: checking details, file set-up, exports and specs so work is ready for print or digital production
  • Preparing print-ready artwork and liaising with suppliers where needed (printers, signwriters, etc.)
  • Maintaining a consistent visual standard across clients, channels and formats
  • Keeping shared design files and libraries organised, labelled and easy for others to navigate

Process, collaboration and improvement

  • Taking briefs, asking smart questions and clarifying objectives, audiences and deliverables
  • Managing your own workload across multiple projects, communicating clearly about timelines and priorities
  • Giving and receiving feedback constructively – collaborating with a small, senior team that values quality over ego
  • Preparing hand overs with clear notes and communication with colleagues, so that projects don’t stall when you’re not at work (crucial in a part time role)
  • Suggesting simple improvements to design workflows and templates so future work is faster, cleaner and easier to maintain

Your job is not just to “make things look pretty”, but to sit at that intersection of craft, clarity and practicality: creating work that looks great, works hard and can actually be produced on time and on budget.

About you

You will likely be someone who:

  • Has solid experience as a mid-weight designer in an agency, studio or in-house marketing team
  • Can show a strong, varied portfolio across brand, digital and campaign work
  • Is highly proficient in Adobe CC (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop as a minimum)
  • Understands how design works across different media, for example video, even if you’re not a motion designer
  • Is comfortable working with brand systems – knowing when to explore, and when to stick to the rules
  • Has excellent attention to detail and takes pride in clean files, tidy layouts and accurate artwork
  • Can juggle multiple projects, manage your time and communicate clearly about what’s realistic
  • Enjoys collaborating with writers, strategists and account managers – you like being part of a team
  • Is practical and solutions-focused: you understand constraints (timing, budget, channels) and design with them in mind

Experience in a creative, marketing or digital agency environment is ideal. Skills in motion, video, or basic web (for example WordPress or simple HTML/CSS) are a bonus, but not essential.

Flexibility and work environment

We are deliberately designing this as a part-time, flexible role:

  • 3 days per week (with some flexibility in how those days are structured)
  • Hours can be structured around school hours or other commitments
  • On-site in our Melbourne or Sunshine Coast office – we value in-person collaboration and support, especially for creative work
  • Clear, agreed working hours – no expectation to stretch into evenings or weekends
  • Potential to grow the role over time as the agency expands (more hours, broader creative scope, or development into a more senior design or art direction path if that’s of interest)

Why work with The Walk Agency?

  • Work closely with the founders and senior team, with a visible impact on the work that goes out the door
  • Build strong creative capability in a growing, integrated marketing agency
  • Join a small, supportive team that values honesty, initiative, collaboration and craft
  • Do meaningful, varied design work across a wide range of clients and sectors
  • Enjoy genuine flexibility, with a role designed to support work–life balance rather than fight it
