Graphic Design And Creative Marketing Coordinator

The Graphic Design and Creative Marketing Coordinator serves as Luna Park’s first line of defense against terrible Photoshop and unfortunate gifs. While this position will need to create digital art from scratch, the majority of time will be spent trafficking graphics to production and manipulating master files created by our outside design agency. Working within the Marketing Department, this position will work with our agency on seasonal concepts, advertising campaigns and developing a solid brand image.
