Visual Communication Designer

Are you an experienced graphic designer who wants to apply their skills to improve the lives of millions of people around the world living with diabetes and other serious medical conditions?  

If you think you have the experience and ambition to work with us in creating mean-ingful design solutions for people, we’d love to hear from you! 
 
The position 
As a Visual Communication Designer you will be a key part of the Design team, work-ing closely together with others in our team - Visual Communication Designers, Indus-trial Designers and Digital Designers, our close colleagues in the User Communication group, User Researchers and others in the team to develop patient-facing solutions.

Your key responsibilities will be: 

• IFU (Instructions For Use) Concept development for new drug delivery de-vices and solutions  
• Concept Illustration (hand sketching, vector illustrations, renderings etc.) 
• Ongoing support of already launched product graphic assets – updates of existing illustrations, document layouts etc. 
• Graphic design support for device innovation & development and support for relevant Design team activities 
• Ad-hoc graphic design tasks such as poster layouts and other graphic de-sign tasks related to internal events and initiatives 

The role will be based in our design studio in Hillerød, with options for spending time at our sites in Ørestad and Søborg. The role is a fixed term contract until October 2025. 

Qualifications 
To be considered for this position, we expect you to: 

• Hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent in graphic design or visual communi-cation 
• Have at least 4 years of experience working as a graphic designer in indus-try 
• Have experience and proficiency of using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign 
• Have experience of design for print – an excellent understanding of printing processes and the preparation and handover of files to printers for production 

It will be considered a great benefit if you have experience of motion graphics (e.g. Adobe After Effects), experience of design for digital interfaces (e.g. Figma), and/or experience of rendering and 3D animation (e.g. Blender, 3DS Max etc.).

You are a graphic designer who has an innate awareness of the impact that visual communication has in people’s perception, understanding and successful use of prod-ucts and systems. You have the ability to express clarity through logical graphic lay-outs and flows, and a keen eye for the details that elegantly communicate the re-quired topic.

You are a natural collaborator and comfortable working with a diverse range of part-ners and stakeholders, but are able to work independently and ensure that projects are kept on track.
