We understand how graphic branding moves our on-air, digital and print product forward.

This is a premium position that hasn't been posted for nearly 40 years. It's a great opportunity with a number one NBC affiliate.

The position works with our production and sales departments but the lion's share of work is dedicated to our daily on-air, digital and social media news product. This includes our Emmy Award-Winning KGET news and Telemundo Valle Central Spanish news.

The graphic artist takes part in client commercial work, station print work, logo design and outside advertising. And of course, news.
