Designer - Communications in Delhi | Goonj

Goonj

Goonj is an award-winning organisation that has worked for over twenty years to tackle material poverty. Its approach is built on dignity, reusing materials, and people taking part in their own development. Goonj works to change how people see giving: not as charity, but as shared responsibility, where discarded things find new value and communities are equal partners. Communication at Goonj is about more than being seen. It shapes how people think, builds respect, and connects people, materials and purpose. This role sits within Goonj's Communication Team, which tells the story of this work across social media, email, print and the web.

Role

The Designer - Communications turns Goonj's values into visuals. You will understand the depth of Goonj's work and show it through designs that are simple, respectful and powerful, without falling into stereotypes or charity-style images. Working in a fast-moving, campaign-driven setting, you will own design work from start to finish, from understanding the brief to delivering the final files, while helping strengthen Goonj's wider communication systems.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain a consistent visual style that matches Goonj's values, glossary and dignity-first approach, and deliver both editable master files and final outputs.
• Design social media creatives such as carousels, posters, stories and campaign assets, along with emailers and outreach materials, and adapt them across platforms.
• Work with internal teams to turn their needs into clear designs, handling several campaigns at once with tight timelines and rounds of feedback.
• Design layouts for the Dignity Diary newsletter, annual and state reports, and web stories, turning field stories and data into clear, easy-to-read visuals.
• Make sure every design shows people respectfully and accurately, and check designs, mailers and web assets for quality before they go out.
• Test designs across social media, email, web and print, and follow accessibility standards for typography, colour and layout.
• Create reusable templates and design systems, improve team workflows, and guide colleagues on visual standards.
• Use AI (artificial intelligence) tools to explore ideas, create variations and speed up work, while checking every AI output for accuracy and respectful representation.

Requirements

• 2-3 years of experience in graphic design, visual communication or a related field.
• A strong portfolio showing campaign work, storytelling formats and design across several platforms.
• Strong design basics, including layout, typography, colour and visual hierarchy.
• Skill with tools such as Adobe Creative Suite, Photoshop, Canva, CorelDraw, Figma or similar, and familiarity with AI design tools used thoughtfully.
• Ability to work across print and digital formats, and to work on your own with little supervision while collaborating across teams.
• Sensitivity to people-first storytelling, strong attention to detail, and comfort with fast-paced work, many stakeholders and tight deadlines.
• Curiosity about grassroots realities and openness to feedback and learning.
• Based in or willing to work from Delhi.

Benefits

• Do meaningful work that changes how people see poverty, giving and dignity.
• Shape the visual voice of a well-known, award-winning development organisation.
• Take full ownership of design work, from first idea to final delivery.
• Grow your skills in storytelling, design systems and AI-assisted design.
