Job Summary
We’re looking for a creative all-rounder who lives and breathes great design, knows how to make a brand stand out in a crowded feed, and can turn a marketing brief into scroll-stopping content. Someone who’s just as comfortable designing slick campaign artwork as they are editing punchy Reels, creating franchise-ready templates, or keeping brand consistency tighter than a fresh set of resistance bands. If you’ve got a sharp eye for detail, a head full of ideas, and love bringing brands to life across digital, print and everything in between , you’ll fit right in at Energie Fitness.
