stand out for good • Knoxville, TN

About The Position

The Visual Communication Intern plays a key role in translating our finished window and interior design concepts into educational tools that empower stores to recreate the look with clarity and confidence. Rather than assisting in the creation of the designs themselves, this role focuses on how those designs are taught. We’re looking for someone who can take the artistry of our window designs and translate them into intuitive learning tools — pairing layout, language, and visual direction to make every store feel confident in bringing the vision to life. This role blends editorial layout, visual storytelling, instructional communication, and content organization. The ideal candidate loves both creativity and structure, and enjoys turning complex information into something simple, beautiful, and easy to follow.

Requirements

• Junior, senior, or recent graduate majoring in Graphic Design, Visual Communication, Visual Merchandising, Editorial/Publication Design, Instructional Design, or related field
• Strong skills in layout and visual organization (InDesign, Illustrator, Figma, or similar platforms preferred)
• Excellent attention to detail in both visual polish and written grammar
• Ability to simplify complex information into clear, actionable sequencing
• Highly organized and comfortable managing multiple project deadlines simultaneously
• Collaborative communicator who enjoys cross-department work
• Must have weekday availability
• Able to work 20–25 hours per week
• Flexibility during seasonal peak periods when window educational materials are released

Responsibilities

• Translate final creative direction into step-by-step digital manuals for stores, including: Written build instructions, Material and prop checklists, Placement diagrams and callouts, Styling guidance and “Do / Don’t” examples
• Help develop instructional video content, supporting script outlines, filming needs, and editing when able.
• Organize large volumes of notes, visuals, and information into clean, digestible, magazine-style documents.
• Ensure instructions balance design intent and practicality, making execution realistic for all store types.
• Partner with teams to confirm clarity, accuracy, and consistency.
• Maintain organized file systems and project folders, ensuring all documentation is easy to access and reference.
