Baltimore Business Journal seeks designer

The Baltimore Business Journal is looking for an experienced designer to lead the design strategy for its print and digital editions.

The position is responsible for driving new and creative forms of story telling on all platforms.

The lead designer must work in concert with reporters, editors and a photographer in creating fresh and innovative pages. He or she will be responsible for the pagination of the paper, informational graphics and other design elements. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who has lots of ideas on how to make our products better and can work well in a very fast-paced newsroom environment.

InDesign and Photoshop knowledge are a must. Multimedia experience, including video editing is preferred. This is an exciting time at the Baltimore Business Journal as we are working with renowned design consultant Mario Garcia and our parent company, American City Business Journals, on a content reinvention. We are planning to launch a redesign at the beginning of next year.

Please send a resume, samples of your newspaper, web or magazine design work and a cover letter telling us why you want to work here to Editor Joanna Sullivan at jsullivan@bizjournals.com and Jon Wile, American City Business Journals creative director, at jwile@bizjournals.com (no phone calls please).
