Job Description

Multimedia & Immersive Education Design Specialist

We have an exciting opportunity for a Multimedia & Immersive Education Design Specialist at UL Research Institutes with our Institute of Research Experiences & Education. While this position is remote and will require some travel, it is our preference that the candidate lives in Atlanta or Chicago.

The Multimedia Design Specialist is responsible for creating, managing, and optimizing multimedia content for various marketing communications platforms, as well as immersive education experiences. The Multimedia Specialist has a deep level of expertise in multimedia production and will actively oversee and contribute to complex projects.

At UL Research Institutes (ULRI), we expand the boundaries of safety science to create a more secure and sustainable world. For more than a century, we have studied the unintended consequences of innovation, designed solutions to mitigate risk and shared our findings with academia, scientists, manufacturers, and policymakers across industries. We identify critical safety and sustainability issues, asking the tough questions because we believe a safer world begins with knowledge.

Build a safer, more secure, and sustainable future with us. Join us and work with our Research Experiences & Education teams who conduct the research required to produce that knowledge and put into practice.

The Institute of Research Experiences and Education (IREE) cultivates the next generation of safety scientists through a mix of unique educational programs, academic partnerships, and research and standards development experiences.

We translate the findings of our research institutes into compelling educational materials, bringing to life scientific concepts using contemporary best education practices to create learning opportunities for a wide variety of secondary through postgraduate students. Our academic collaborations and support for the next generation of safety scientists likewise reach across the educational spectrum, including partnerships that reach out to students who are underrepresented in STEM fields.

Through all of our programs, we aim to unlock the diverse perspectives that are essential for solving the world's most pressing safety and sustainability issues.

As the Multimedia & Immersive Education Design Specialist you will play a key role in the rapid growth of UL as you:

  • Plan, create, and edit multimedia content, including videos, animations, images, graphic design, and interactive media for distribution on marketing communications channels and use in immersive classrooms.
  • Demonstrate a high level of proficiency in multimedia software and equipment, such as Adobe Creative Suite, video editing tools, and 3D modeling software.
  • Contribute to the development of creative concepts and strategies for multimedia projects used in both marketing communications and educational experiences.
  • Independently manage and execute multiple multimedia projects, ensuring they are delivered on time and within budget.
  • Ensure that multimedia content meets high-quality standards and aligns with the organization's brand guidelines.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams, including marketing communications specialists, video producers, and educational content creators, to achieve project goals.
  • Implement multimedia content strategies, including optimizing content for various platforms and managing content schedules.
  • Serve as liaison with external agencies specializing in web development, video production, and graphic design.
  • Help support content creation and oversee development of social media posts.
  • Perform other duties as directed.

We have pursued our mission of working for a safer, more secure, and sustainable world for nearly 130 years, embedding conscientious stewardship into everything we do.

  • People: Our people make us special. You'll work with a diverse team of experts respected for their independence and transparency and build a network, because our approach is collaborative. We collaborate across disciplines, organizations, and geographies to build the global scientific response that today's global challenges require.

  • Interesting work: Every day is different for us here. We see what's on the horizon and use our expertise to build the foundations of a safer future. You'll have the opportunity to push the boundaries of human understanding as part of a team working to advance the public good.

  • Grow and achieve: We learn, work, and grow together through targeted development, reward, and recognition programs.

  • Values: Four core values guide our work: collaboration, respect, integrity, and beneficence. By living our values, we inspire the trust essential to fulfilling our mission and foster the partnerships that enable us to pursue a beneficent future in which we all can thrive.

  • Total Rewards: All employees at UL Research Institutes are eligible for bonus compensation. We offer comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans and a generous 401k matching structure of up to 5% of eligible pay. Moreover, we invest an additional 4% into your retirement saving fund after your first year of continuous employment. Depending on your role, you may be able to discuss flexible working arrangements with your manager. We also provide employees with paid time off, including vacation, holiday, sick, and volunteer days.

While no one candidate will embody every quality, the successful candidate will bring many of the following professional competencies and personal attributes:

  • Strong creative skills to develop engaging multimedia content and concepts.
  • Strong knowledge of multimedia software and equipment, including video editing, graphic design, and 3D modeling tools.
  • Ability to support multiple projects independently, set priorities, and meet deadlines.
  • Ability to lead or mentor team members on multimedia projects.
  • An eye for detail and a commitment to maintaining high-quality multimedia content.
  • Effective communication skills to collaborate with team members and stakeholders.
  • Willingness to learn and adapt to new multimedia technologies and trends.
  • Strong problem-solving skills to address technical and creative challenges.

Professional education and experience requirements for the role include:

  • A bachelor's degree in multimedia, digital media, graphic design, or a similar discipline.
  • Minimum 4 years of experience in multimedia production or a related role.
  • Experience in multimedia software and tools, with a strong portfolio showcasing previous work.

UL Research Institutes and UL Standards & Engagement are nonprofit organizations dedicated to advancing safety science research through the discovery and application of scientific knowledge. We conduct rigorous independent research and analyze safety data, convene experts worldwide to address risks, share knowledge through safety education and public outreach initiatives, and develop standards to guide safe commercialization of evolving technologies. We foster communities of safety, from grassroots initiatives for neighborhoods to summits of world leaders. Our organization employs collaborative and scientific approaches with partners and stakeholders to drive innovation and progress toward improving safety, security, and sustainability, ultimately enhancing societal well-being.
