Communication designer
As a communications designer, you are both the creative and strategic mind behind colourful advertising messages. Your job is to plan, shape, and design media of all kinds, for example, advertisements, posters, and banners for the internet. However, you do much more than just design, you also provide advice to your clients. This involves understanding your client’s communication strategy and being informed on current trends. To work as a communications designer, you should have professional expertise, creativity, a sense of aesthetics, a knack for details, and great communication skills.

You determine the basic style of the pages, work out a basic framework, and plan images, animations, and graphics. To successfully achieve this, you bring both creative and technical skills with you. HTML, CSS and Java are just as much a part of your everyday work as Photoshop and Illustrator. You are interested in continuously educating yourself because the online world never stands still. There are constantly new trends and developments that are important for your work.
