Amazing designer/illustrator job

About the job

We're looking for a marketing designer & illustrator to join the team at Cliniko. Working closely with our marketing and content teams, you'll create work for both screen and print. You'll design and code HTML emails, create on-brand illustrations and digital artwork, and contribute to the overall development of the Cliniko brand. The work is fun and varied, and each day is often different from the last.

What is Cliniko?

Cliniko is practice management software that makes life easier for Allied Health professionals by handling appointment scheduling, storing treatment notes, hosting video consultations, and much more. The software is used globally by tens of thousands of practitioners every day.

Behind Cliniko is a team of 43 people spread around the world. We work completely remotely, although our base is in Melbourne, Australia. We care more about finding the best person for the job than looking for someone that lives nearby.

We don't have project managers, we rarely have meetings, and there are no time sheets to complete. We're responsible, autonomous, creative, and proactive in doing our best for our customers. We're focused on making great software and we take pride in doing good work.

If you want to know more about how we work, our founder, Joel, gave a talk about it.

About you

It goes without saying that you are a talented, creative person. You have excellent taste, a good eye, and a finely honed gut instinct. A sense of humour would be preferable.

You'll be familiar with a few design tools and you'll no doubt have your preferences. If you're not already an expert, you'll be savvy enough to get up to speed quickly with Illustrator and Photoshop.

You either have experience creating HTML emails from scratch, and have spent many an hour pleading with Outlook to behave. Or you know some HTML and CSS—enough to build what you have designed—and can learn the nuances of coding marketing emails on the job.

Experience matters, but we won't pluck an arbitrary number of years out of the ether that you absolutely must meet. What is important is that you've done neat work that has been put out there in the world (published, printed, exhibited, whatever); that you know what it's like to work, to collaborate, to fight your corner, to concede with humility, and to laugh with other humans; that you've made mistakes in the past that still make you cringe, a harrowing cringe that stops you from repeating the same mistakes.

There is no geographical requirement for this role. Applications are welcome from anywhere in the world.

No matter what your background is, or how you identify, if you feel you meet the requirements, we encourage you to apply. We know that having a diverse team is necessary to have different perspectives, and it's how we’ll continue to find new ways to make Cliniko better. We are committed to the continual diversification of the team and working to constantly improve our inclusivity which is crucial to how we work.

What you'll work on

Most of the time you’ll be working closely with our marketing and content teams. The work is quite varied, so you may sometimes find yourself:

• Creating on-brand illustrations and digital artwork.
• Creating digital artwork and visual assets for social media and blog posts.
• Designing marketing ads for print and screen.
• Contributing to the design and continued improvement of the product website, community forum, help centre, and other sites in the Cliniko ecosystem.
• Designing, coding, testing and adding content to HTML emails.
• Designing artwork for tshirts, stickers, and other swag.
• Contributing to the development of Cliniko's visual branding.

• 30-hour work week, full-time pay.
• Unlimited annual leave.
• Supplied computer equipment.
• Ergonomic furniture.
