Job Description
**UI/UX Designer** | Kolkata | Full-time (WFH) | INR 4.5-16.3 LPA
**About the role:**
- Position within Graphic Design, under the Art & Culture / Creative Arts vertical
- Level: mid level
- Reports to the functional head for Graphic Design
**What you'll do:**
- Handle core graphic design activities on a day-to-day basis
- Use Community Engagement regularly as part of core deliverables
- Work closely with adjacent teams to align priorities
- Track progress against agreed timelines and escalate issues proactively
**What you'll need:**
- Community Engagement
- Graphic Design
- Visual Storytelling
- Portfolio Development
- Grant/Funding Proposals
- Creative Concept Development
- M.F.A
- 4+ years of relevant experience
**Good to know:**
- The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here. Disagreement on approach is expected and welcomed, provided it's backed by reasoning rather than preference alone.
- No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions. Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role.
- Shortlisted applicants will be evaluated on both domain knowledge and practical problem-solving ability. New joiners typically get a short structured onboarding before being handed independent ownership of their first deliverables.
- Interested candidates should be prepared to walk through relevant past work during the interview process. In addition to fixed pay, the role carries eligibility for annual appraisals and merit-based increments.
- The hiring process typically includes a screening round, a technical or functional assessment, and a final discussion with the reporting manager. References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process.
- Performance is reviewed on a structured cycle, with clear criteria for movement into the next band. The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function.
- A typical day starts with reviewing priority tasks and syncing with the immediate team before moving into focused execution work. Leave policy follows standard industry norms, including earned leave, sick leave, and public holidays as applicable.
- Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. There is a defined internal mobility path for people who want to specialise deeper or move into people management.
- There's usually a block of uninterrupted time set aside for focused work, separate from meetings and coordination calls. Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round. The organisation places a premium on ownership; once a task is assigned, the expectation is to see it through without hand-holding.
- Relocation assistance may be extended for candidates moving from a different city, subject to approval. Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns. The organisation has historically promoted from within for a majority of its senior and lead openings.
- Skip-level conversations with senior leadership are encouraged at least twice a year to discuss career direction. High performers in this role typically move into a broader ownership scope within 18-24 months.
