The Role: Graphic Designer
The Graphic Designer role is responsible for delivering high-quality visual communications that support GBE-N's corporate messaging, stakeholder engagement and public-facing outputs.
Working within established brand guidelines and communications frameworks, the role interprets briefs and produces clear, accurate and accessible design solutions across digital and print channels.
The role operates with a high degree of delivery autonomy, managing multiple design outputs simultaneously, but does not hold accountability for communications strategy, campaign direction or brand ownership.
This is a professional specialist role, requiring strong technical expertise, sound judgement and the ability to translate complex subject matter into clear visual content.
Accountabilities & Responsibilities:
- Deliver visual assets across digital and print formats, including reports, presentations, infographics, social media content and stakeholder materials
- Apply established GBE-N brand guidelines and visual standards consistently across all outputs, ensuring clarity, accessibility and accuracy
- Interpret design briefs from communications and business stakeholders, translating complex or technical information into accessible visual formats
- Manage multiple concurrent design requests, prioritising workload to meet agreed deadlines
- Prepare and manage artwork files for digital publication and print production, ensuring quality control and version management
- Contribute to the maintenance and continuous improvement of corporate templates and visual assets (e.g. Word, PowerPoint, and digital formats)
- Output delivery: Responsibility for producing high-quality design outputs that support the effective communication of GBE-N messaging
- Brand application: Responsibility for the accurate application of established brand standards; the role does not define or own brand strategy
- Work planning: Responsibility for organising and managing workload across multiple briefs within agreed priorities
- Stakeholder support: Provision of specialist design support to internal teams, responding to briefs rather than leading communication activity
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
