Mobile technology is revolutionizing how organizations engage with their end users. More than 96% of the world’s population has access to a mobile phone, meaning it is now possible to reach nearly every single person on the planet. Yet 3 billion people living in emerging markets still lack access to relevant, timely, and engaging information in their local languages, and their voices remain underheard. The organizations that serve them lack the technology and capacity to reach them, and many are unaware of the power of mobile technology to meet their organizational goals.
Viamo connects individuals and organizations using digital technology to make better decisions.
With more than 25 million people reached in 2020 alone, we are well on our way to meeting our goal of reaching 50M people annually by 2023.
About the role
You will be our global Multimedia Designer, joining Viamo’s growing Marketing and Communications team.

You will be responsible for developing and producing multimedia pieces for use on our website, social media, marketing materials, and at events that help Viamo facilitate a conversation around mobile strategies. You have the ability to share stories of impact in visually engaging and creative ways, emphasizing both the personal impact of a single beneficiary as well as the story behind impact numbers at scale.
