• Manage creative revisions and approvals to ensure quality, consistency, and timely delivery.
• Coordinate with external partners on production requirements, specifications, and final artwork delivery.

4. Marketing & Campaign Support

• Collaborate closely with the marketing team to develop creative concepts for integrated marketing campaigns, admissions campaigns, events, and brand initiatives.
• Design marketing collateral for digital platforms, social media, websites, presentations, brochures, banners, signage, and other communication channels.
• Support the development of creative assets for new school launches, brand activations, events, and corporate communications.
