About Us:

Greetings fellow veteran! We’re BufferSprings, on a mission to eradicate underemployment within the military-connected community. Join our Graphic Design Internship through the DoD SkillBridge Program.

Our Commitment to Veterans:

Recognizing the challenges of transitioning to civilian life, BufferSprings goes beyond its core mission. We stand committed to supporting veterans and their families through our “reBoot Camp” training, covering Health, Wealth, Knowledge, and Relationships. In other words, we’ve got your six to ensure you have the smoothest transition possible.

Job Description

Our remote DoD SkillBridge internships provide real-world job experience, training, and skills development. We purposefully designed our program to give interns a head start on transitioning from military service to civilian employment while still enjoying the safety net of full pay and benefits from the military.

We are seeking a talented and experienced Marketing Graphic Designer with expertise in Canva to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a keen eye for design, creativity, and the ability to produce engaging and visually appealing graphics that will help elevate our brand and drive business growth.

You might be a natural fit if you worked in a Public Affairs office in the military, design memes for social media, or design fliers for personal and family events.

• Develop and produce graphics for social media, email newsletters, blog posts, presentations, and other marketing collateral using Canva and other graphic design tools
