SUMMARY: Graphic Designer for Print Design and Catalog Creation

Heritage Auctions is seeking a seasoned Graphic Designer to join our Design Team within the Marketing Department at our Dallas, Texas office. This in-house position necessitates on-site attendance and is not conducive to remote working arrangements. In this hands-on role, you will serve a pivotal role in our print design endeavors, working in tandem with fellow designers, print production staff, marketing managers, and subject matter experts to craft materials that resonate with our brand's ethos in a bustling, deadline- driven environment. Having a background in promoting fine jewelry, luxury items, or fine art through print design will be a noteworthy asset.

• Leading the design and layout of auction catalogs, which constitute 70% of your role, orchestrating catalogs spanning 100 to 400+ pages.
• Devoting 30% of your time to the design and execution of print ads for various publications, direct mail campaigns, brochures, and other marketing collateral.

SKILLS & ABILITIES:

• Advanced proficiency in Mac OS, Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat), and Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, and Outlook).
• Capability to swiftly and precisely execute multi-page projects like catalogs, books, magazines, and brochures; transcending mere logos or single-page flyers.
