About Us
G Adventures is the world’s largest small-group adventure travel company and we’ve been making epic travel memories happen on all seven continents for over 30 years.
Our mission is simple: to change lives through travel. And not just our travelers’ either. Since day one, our tours have been built to establish meaningful relationships with local communities, directly benefiting the people and places we visit at every step of our tours.
With the demand for travel coming back strong, we are set up and excited for this next chapter in our company’s story — and we’d love for you to be a part of it.
Our DNA revolves around building, nurturing, and developing a diverse culture of people and a true sense of belonging, where everyone is encouraged to bring their authentic self to work each and every day. You’ll have the opportunity to grow your career, and yourself, alongside a passionate, talented, and welcoming community that works hard to spread goodness around the world.
If all that sounds like your kind of thing, well, we can’t wait for you to join us.
Do you dream in colour codes and typefaces? Do word widows fill you with a quiet sadness? Would you love to bring outrageous ideas to life for an awesome international brand? Then you’ve got the right stuff to be G Adventures’ newest graphic designer.
In this role, you’ll be crafting masterpieces of all shapes and sizes for our global brand and regional offices. Digital content, print pieces, logos, global brand campaigns, and everything in between — you’ll do it all, and for a brand that oozes personality, embraces the bizarre, and that’s truly on a mission to make the world a better place.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Work together with the other freakishly talented members of the creative team to produce work that hits the brief, inspires people to travel responsibly, and elevates the G Adventures brand into the exosphere.
Be comfortable brainstorming, conceptualizing, designing, and doing so many other things for a wide range of projects. Heads up: this includes the technical parts of print production.
You’ll operate at both a strategic and hands-on level, bringing a well-trained design eye to refine the craft, consistency, and quality of the G Adventures brand.
Be a champion and guardian of all-things brand. Our colours, our type, our style of photography; you know what’s right, and can pick out a purple that’s a teensy-tiny bit off.
Balance global and regional priorities so deadlines are met and the ol’ machine keeps running smoothly.
Figure out how to use our project management software (ClickUp) so your desk doesn’t have to be covered in post-it notes.
Working at a collaborative level with the creative team-leads to manage daily, weekly, and long-term project deadlines for all internal requests.
Maintain strong, positive working relationships with internal departments and stakeholders, engaging them through the design process with brainstorming, creative briefs, execution options and mock-ups to assist in achieving their desired result – including welcoming feedback and being proficient at incorporating it with minimal oversight.
Work with confidence and always put strategy and rationale into every decision.
Inspire and coach other designers on the internal team to help them work effectively and efficiently, and provide guidance and feedback to help them grow creatively.
Desired Skills & Experience:
Bachelor's degree in a related field is a plus, but a portfolio showing your skills is way more important.
3+ years of experience as a graphic designer or Art Director on either the in-house or agency side, we’re not picky.
Fluent in Adobe suite (your friends are Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop.) Other software knowledge is great, too! We love After Effects, Figma, and Google Docs/Slides/etc.
Bonus handy skills to have, but not at all necessary: illustration, motion, web design, email design, fluent in German or French.
Confidence in presenting work to our immediate team and other stakeholders. We don’t bite! And Chris probably isn’t listening anyways.
Attention to all the details. You’re like a detail detective, and you’re always hot on the trail.
Ability to concept and design quickly and share progress openly and frequently
You have strong time-management skills and can juggle multiple projects and stakeholder feedback while remaining flexible through revisions and competing priorities.
