Information Designer, Business Development & Marketing

DRC•New York, NY

About The Position

DRC is a premier trial strategy and data analysis firm with nearly 30 years of experience, assisting leading law firms and high-profile litigators in gaining strategic advantages in high-stakes litigation. The firm's work integrates litigation strategy, social psychology, data analysis, and information design. DRC is seeking a full-time Information Design Artist for Business Development & Marketing to play a critical role in securing new client engagements. This position involves developing persuasive, client-facing demonstrative aids and visual narratives for pitches, proposals, and other business development efforts, as well as supporting firm marketing initiatives. The created work will directly influence prospective clients' decisions to retain DRC. This is not a traditional Monday–Friday, 9–5 role, as business development often involves quick turnarounds and tight deadlines, requiring flexibility, including evening and weekend work. The ideal candidate is a designer who thrives on complex, high-pressure assignments where persuasion, judgment, and clarity are paramount, and is comfortable developing visuals from incomplete or evolving information, taking ownership of work that directly impacts business outcomes. This role is not suitable for those seeking purely production-based or strictly scheduled design jobs, or for designers primarily interested in conceptual exploration without tight deadlines or client-facing stakes.

Requirements

2–4+ years of professional design experience, ideally in a consulting, legal, or other high‑pressure client‑facing environment
Advanced vector illustration skills (minimum 2+ years)
Strong proficiency in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and PowerPoint
Demonstrated ability to work quickly without sacrificing clarity or judgment
Comfort working nights and weekends as required by project flow

Responsibilities

Translate complex legal arguments, case themes, and data into clear, persuasive visual presentations for client pitches and proposals
Develop demonstrative concepts and presentation materials for prospective matters, often with incomplete or evolving information
Collaborate closely with attorneys, consultants, and strategy teams to align visuals with persuasive objectives
Support the creation of marketing decks, branded materials, and firm presentations
Manage multiple concurrent projects in a fast‑paced, deadline‑driven environment
Execute within established visual standards while adapting to matter‑specific and client‑specific needs
