Design Lead
Designing the visual representation of Australia’s first student-led VC fund
Growth Team
🙋 Whats in it for you?
You will be leading the growth and branding of Australia’s first student VC fund, differentiating you from any other student coming out of University in Australia. By the end of the year, you would’ve contributed to a generational idea, put a unique experience under your belt, met the most ambitious students in the ecosystem, and potentially have helped identify Australia’s next unicorn 🦄
Our promise to you is that we’ll help you learn and grow at an extremely high rate. We’ll do this by giving you autonomy in your role and by connecting you with mentors you need in order to thrive!
🧠 What you'll be doing
Channelling your inner artist to help design NextGen’s brand from the ground up, giving us a fresh look
Lots of creative experimentation to help establish our brand, including the continued management of the NextGen Ventures website and undertaking of unique projects that require website design and development
In the short term, you’ll be focused on developing some awesome visuals to help us promote exciting events for students, industry experts and more in the startup community
Over time you’ll be more involved in other projects that involve physical and digital design work such as building animated sequences for a YouTube channel, building out infographics for a newsletter, or whatever else you/we are keen to work on. You have a blank canvas!
