Description

KRQE Media Group-home to CBS, FOX, CW, My50, KRQE.com, KRQE Now, and a fast-growing portfolio of digital and social platforms-is looking for a Graphic Artist who believes visual storytelling is the heartbeat of modern media.

This isn't a "make-it-look-nice" role. This is a chance to shape how our journalism, promotions, and partnerships look and feel across broadcast, digital, streaming, and social.

If you see design as a way to grab attention, clarify stories, and build brands-not just decorate them-we want to meet you!

What You'll Create

You'll be at the center of our visual engine, designing graphics that power:

• On-air news and promotion across multiple stations
• Digital, streaming, and social platforms
• Sales presentations, sponsorships, and client collateral
• Print materials for newspapers, magazines, programs, and special projects
• Web graphics for KRQE.com and related digital properties

What You'll Do

• Conceptualize and design original graphics and animations that align with-and elevate-station brands.
• Develop promotional graphics that support news, marketing, and programming initiatives.
• Partner closely with the Sales team to create compelling, brand-safe client collateral and sponsorship materials.
• Design and produce print assets for external publications and internal initiatives.
• Create web and digital graphics optimized for multiple platforms and screen sizes.
• Assist in coordinating station photography for on-air talent, staff, and special projects.
• Juggle multiple projects at once without losing speed, accuracy, or creativity.
• Meet tight deadlines in a fast-paced newsroom environment-without sacrificing quality.

Who You Are
You're a visual thinker who:

• Has a strong design foundation and a sharp eye for layout, typography, color, and motion.
• Understands how design translates across on-air, digital, and social platforms.
• Is fluent in Adobe Creative Suite-especially Photoshop and Illustrator-and comfortable adapting to new tools.
• Thrives under deadline pressure and knows how to prioritize without panic.
• Communicates clearly, collaborates easily, and takes feedback as fuel-not friction.
• Cares deeply about consistency, brand integrity, and visual storytelling.

What You Bring

• Art Degree, Design, Broadcasting, or a related field (preferred).
• 3+ years of professional graphic design experience.
• Advanced working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• A portfolio that shows both creativity and discipline.

Why KRQE Media Group

You'll join a creative team that believes local media should look as modern as the platforms it lives on.

You'll get:

• Exposure to real, high-impact work seen daily across broadcast, digital, and streaming.
• A collaborative environment where design has a seat at the table.
• The chance to grow your skills across multiple mediums-not just one lane.
• A newsroom and leadership team that values creativity, speed, and innovation.
