Senior Graphic Designer

About the role

We’re a report-specialist content & design company for Indian listed companies. You’ll be the creative owner who fuses brand and creativity to build award-worthy Integrated Annual Reports and Sustainability / BRSR Reports—from big idea and visual system to page design, infographics, and press-ready PDFs / web handoffs. You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with writers, ESG analysts, and PMO to convert KPIs and strategy into straightforward, on-brand storytelling.

What you’ll do

• Lead the concept : Craft the annual theme / storyboard, visual metaphor (e.g., value-creation model), and the design system (grid, typography, colour, iconography, chart styles).
• Translate brand → report : Turn existing brand guidelines into long-form design guardrails (section templates, data-viz specs, callout styles, photography / illustration direction).
• Own layout & art direction : Direct designers / illustrators; design hero pages, infographics, complex tables, and multi-column spreads in InDesign; maintain cross-document consistency.
• Data-viz accuracy : Partner with ESG / data teams to convert KPI packs into charts / scorecards; validate numbers, axes, units, and legends; prevent design-induced data errors.
• Digital & accessibility : Prepare interactive PDFs / microsite handoffs (component library in Figma); ensure WCAG-aligned text styles, alt-text guidance, contrast, and reading order.
• Print production : Liaise with printers for paper / finish choices (foil / UV / emboss), colour management, impositions, proofs, dielines; run preflight checks and resolve overprint / bleed issues.
• Schedule & quality : Plan R1→Rfinal cycles with PMO; maintain version control; uphold a zero-defect preflight standard; coach the team through crunch time.
• Client collaboration : Present concepts to CXO / CorpCom / IR teams; absorb feedback, protect the core idea, and iterate fast without losing coherence.
• Design ops : Build reusable libraries (Figma / ID snippets), icon sets, chart kits, and documentation so next year’s report is faster and tighter.
