Job Overview

We are currently recruiting for Graphic Designer - Bid to join our passionate and driven team based at our client’s site in Ipswich

Key Responsibilities:

• Collaborate with bid managers, subject matter experts, and other stakeholders to understand bid requirements and develop design concepts that align with OCS branding guidelines and customers’ expectations.
• Design and produce a wide range of bid support materials, including but not limited to proposal templates, presentations, infographics, charts, diagrams, and digital assets.
• Translate technical information and data into visually appealing graphics and illustrations that effectively convey key messages and differentiate OCS from competitors.

• Manage multiple projects simultaneously and prioritise tasks to meet tight deadlines in a fast-paced environment.

About You:

• You’re an energised individual with demonstrable experience and expertise.

• Above all, you’re proven to execute, get things done and make things happen; you’re considered, taking the time required to research and assess complete information - and above all, you’re a doer, continually seeking ways to do things better and deliver the best outcomes for your colleagues, customers and communities.
