Passionate Graphic Designer / Canva Expert

Who We Are We are a small but prominent human rights organisation dedicated to providing pro bono assistance to individuals suffering from injustice and abuse worldwide. We have recently launched an exciting new flagship campaign for 2026, complete with fresh, professionally designed branding (logo, colour palette, and typography).
To amplify our message effectively online, we need visually strong, on-brand graphics that convey seriousness, credibility, and compassion.

What We're Looking For A talented and passionate graphic designer / Canva specialist who cares about human rights and understands the importance of clear, impactful visual communication.
This is an opportunity to build a long-term working relationship, as we have multiple existing campaigns and many new ones in the pipeline.

Initial Project Scope Create a set of fully editable social media templates (primarily for Instagram, X/Twitter, Facebook, and TikTok) based on our new campaign branding.

We need 3–5 design variations/options for each of the following key formats:

1. Quote / Text slide – clean, powerful text-focused design
2. Image / News clipping slide – for displaying photos, articles, or screenshots with captions
3. Announcement slide – for campaign updates, events, or statements
4. ALERT slide ← highest priority (e.g., “New Law Alert”, “Travel Advisory”, “Urgent Action Needed” – may use subtle red/accent highlights)
5. Miscellaneous flexible slides (e.g., statistic highlights, calls-to-action, supporter quotes)

Additional Initial Deliverables

• Basic electronic stationery: – Professional letterhead (A4) – Simple email signature template – Optional: short memo or fact-sheet layout

Phase 2 (upon approval of initial templates) Set up a complete Canva Brand Kit (or equivalent tool) including:
• All logo variations
• Brand colours and fonts
• The approved templates uploaded and organised → Enabling our small, non-design team to quickly create urgent graphics in-house while staying perfectly on-brand

Design Requirements
• Clean, minimalistic, professional style – serious and trustworthy
• Fully editable in Canva (clear layer naming, grouped elements, locked brand assets where needed)
• Optimised for each platform (correct sizes, mobile-friendly)
• Easy for non-designers to update text, swap images, and adjust within guidelines

Timescale We need the initial set of templates as soon as possible – ideally first drafts within 5–7 days of starting.
Budget & Payment We are flexible and prefer hourly payment (fair market rate based on experience), though we are also open to a fixed project fee. Ongoing work will be scoped and paid separately.
