• Create these materials by hand or by using technology, including computer software programs. 
• Meet with clients to gain an understanding of what they want their proposed communications to look like. Create or incorporate illustrations, pictures, and designs to reflect the desired theme and tone of the communications.
• Select type size and style to enhance the readability of text and image.
• Produce drafts for review by clients and make revisions based on the feedback received.
• Review final productions for errors and ensure that final prints reflect client specifications.

Qualifications:
• Adobe's Creative Suite—including Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and more—is the standard in the industry and most employers expect designers to be proficient with its programs. The Edward Jones Brand + Agency is building a world-class creative crew to support our growth into a full-service in-house model, with an emphasis or unique strength in creative and visual excellence in the social media sphere.
