production assistant needed at tivol
TIVOL, a 103-year-old, family owned fine jewelry retailer, is seeking an
entry level Production Assistant to support the Marketing Department in
its daily activities and promotional efforts. This position reports to the
Director of Marketing.
The Production Assistant -- under close guidance and supervision of the
Marketing Director -- will be responsible for creating window clings;
print materials such as postcards, brochures, billboards, miscellaneous
signage, advertising for newspapers and magazines as well as high-end
invitations; digital media such as banner ads for TIVOL.com and ads for
partner websites; e-blasts; and assisting in the creation and editing of
business-related videos as required. Twice per year, the Marketing
Department produces a high-end publication titled TIVOL Magazine. This
position will be responsible for the layout and design of its local
editorial pages, as well as assisting in the selling of local ads.
Graphic design is only half of the story, however. This role will also
assist in the coordination of the numerous special events held both
off-site and at TIVOL throughout the calendar year. Organization is key.
Responsibilities will include the hiring of caterers and providing
assistance in menu planning, hiring DJs and overseeing other detailed
event logistics. Attending these events, which are often held on evenings
and weekends, is necessary and mandatory. In addition, this position will
track and process donations to charitable organizations and related
special events that benefit the community.
Other duties include but are not limited to helping maintain TIVOL's
Intranet content, as well as maintaining inventory on TIVOL.com
The Marketing Department at TIVOL produces all of its communications
internally, so it is essential that the Production Assistant comes to work
every day with a willingness to work on a variety of projects, both small
and large. The desire to collaborate, exchange ideas in a team environment
and to welcome positive criticism is an absolute must. Keeping print and
digital files carefully organized is also important, as well as
maintaining a tidy workspace.
Position breakdown
Graphic Design: 40%
Event Coordination: 40%
Miscellaneous Projects: 20%
Minimum requirements
- An Associate's Degree in Graphic Design, Marketing, Communications
and/or Event Planning (a BA or BS is preferred)
- Demonstrated artistic ability
- Strong knowledge of Adobe CS 5.5
- Proficient in Microsoft Office
- A comfort level working in both PC and Mac environments
- Ability to work in fast-paced work environment
- Ability to be a self-starter who can manage deadlines and workflow
- Strong organizational skills
- Willingness to be a flexible and positive team member
- Knowledge of Adobe Flash, HTML 5 and content management systems is ideal
but not essential
Candidates should submit a resume as well as a portfolio of design work
that includes at least 10 samples.

Razorfish Summer Internship
Contact information:
http://www.razorfish.com/#/company/global-network/north-america/portland
Overview:
At Razorfish, we’re old school digital.
That’s because we’ve been doing interactive work for about 15 years. In fact, we were one of the first to animate a website on a Netscape browser. When everyone else started moving to digital, we were right there to greet them.
That’s where you come in. We’re looking for Art Director & Copywriter interns who live interactive, think for the web, and want to give their portfolios a digital edge. Here, you’ll work on live briefs with a great group of digital minds. We have a lot of exciting projects for Intel, Wells Fargo, PGE and other high profile clients that will look very good in your book. But more importantly, you’ll come out of here with sharp digital thinking and the experience of producing real interactive work.
Core Duties/Responsibilities:
We ARE NOT looking for a Photoshop Chimp for our internship program. What we want is a creative innovator. A designer whose work bleeds perfection. A writer of copy you remember the next week. An architect of the next generation of websites. A rethinker of same-old advertising. A visual storyteller.
A user of user generated content. A generator of user generated content. A music, film, design, art, and fashion hound who doesn’t care about trends for the sake of trends. A Gawkering, Flickring, Facebooking, Googling, MySpacing, YouTubing Adcritic.
Oh, and there may be some Photoshop work…
Required Skills/Knowledge/Experience:
Some prior experience with Fireworks, Photoshop, Illustrator, basic HTML, Quark Xpress or similar design tools are a plus
Must be able to organize, prioritize and manage multiple projects in a deadline-driven environment
Flexibility and responsiveness to customer and/or team needs, and ability to work in a team setting are a must.
We are hiring for several positions in both San Francisco & Portland. If you have what it takes to be an Art Director Intern or Copywriter Intern, apply to the specific location that interests you. If you’re ready to rock it old school on the digital dance floor, let’s see what you got.
This position is a 10 week full-time paid position, approximately 40 hrs/week.
