-   Brainstorm with account managers and designers to deliver polished, high-converting visual assets for social media, websites, and advertising.
-   Stay ahead of industry trends, emerging editing techniques, and AI tools to continuously level up production standards.

-   Strong alignment with or curiosity about the blue-collar and trades industries.
-   Proficiency in Google Workspace tools for file management and project organization.

**Nice-to-Haves**
