Presentation Design Benchmark Author
Job Description
Your work at IXO
Build demanding presentation-design tasks with clear examples of successful execution. You will work from permitted reference decks, brand assets and structured content to define what a well-crafted result should look like and how it should be assessed.
Responsibilities
• Write presentation tasks that require meaningful design decisions rather than simple text placement.
• Produce reference decks with disciplined typography, grids, hierarchy, colour and iconography.
• Translate brand and style expectations into concrete criteria that a reviewer can apply.
• Create visual rubrics for craft, consistency and template adherence.
• Document failure patterns such as broken alignment, contradictory hierarchy or elements that do not belong to the visual system.
• Refine tasks, templates and criteria after review while preserving the intended design standard.
Preferred experience
The preferred profile includes three to five years in an agency, in-house communications/brand team or independent presentation-design practice. A portfolio of board, pitch, sales or brand-system decks is useful evidence.
You should understand how to extend a visual system across different slide types and accurately infer style from a reference. Expert PowerPoint and/or Keynote skills, plus familiarity with Figma or Adobe tools, are preferred. Large template redesigns, brand-to-template translation and data-rich decks add value. AI-training or rubric-writing experience is helpful but not necessary.
Eligibility, outputs and pay
The role is remote for contributors based in North America or Europe. Deliverables are task briefs, reference presentations and detailed visual scoring rubrics.
Per completed task; fee agreed before work. IXO will agree the USD fee, expected submissions, scope and delivery schedule before work starts. Payment is based on the completed deliverable meeting its specifications; no hourly conversion is advertised.
