The problems we face are growing larger and more complex everyday. More online trafficking. More ocean noise. More powerful storms. We’ve been around for fifty years, but we know our solutions can’t stay the same. We have to be nimble, curious, and open to new partners. In short, we have to think, and act, differently.
Are you passionate about animals, people and the place we call home? IFAW is looking for a Graphic Designer & Multimedia Producer to help grow the IFAW brand and make IFAW a household name around the world, creating branded content for use in web, social, and other channels.

The Producer will bring a detail-oriented, conscientious approach to their work, understanding that every project is an opportunity for IFAW to tell our unique story and build a brand connection with our audience. As a social media native who is plugged into trends, this person will successfully create social video content at high volume that resonates with our audiences, and will have a knack for effectively telling a story in a very short format. The right candidate is a self-starter who can produce and edit high-quality clips without step-by-step direction. As a member of the Content Marketing team, the Producer will be plugged into organizational priorities and ongoing campaigns, and will always be thinking about how those initiatives can be best represented in social video.
