Brand Designer Needed

Job ID: 39525029

Budget: $100 – $200 USD

I’m seeking a world-class brand designer with deep expertise in logo systems, visual identity design, and emotional branding. This project is a high-stakes brand relaunch for a private K-12 Christian school originally founded in 2005, which is now being reintroduced to the public after suspending operations in December 2023.

We’re not just looking for another logo — we need a complete brand evolution. The candidate must be able to design the four essential types of logos:
• Main Logo
• Secondary Logo
• Simplified Logo
• Submark Logo

These must be:
• Professionally crafted for both digital and print uses (including embossing/seals, merchandise, and mobile)
• Designed with legacy, trust, and transformation in mind
• Unique enough to reposition the school while honoring its roots (without reviving the stigma of its former visual identity)

Additionally, the designer must also develop a personal brand identity for me (the founder’s son and current visionary leader of the school) that:
• Stands on its own but still complements the school brand
• Can be used across social media, personal podcasting, webinars, and future book covers
• Projects authority, warmth, and excellence

Ideal candidates must:
• Show a proven portfolio of building identity systems (not just one-off logos)
• Understand how to emotionally reposition a brand after public failure or stigma
• Be comfortable working with Christian brands and values
• Be able to present brand concepts that bridge legacy and reinvention

This is not a beginner-level job. We’re looking for a creative partner, not just a vendor. This rebrand must spark dignity, curiosity, and admiration — especially among past skeptics.

Please source top-tier candidates from trusted networks or platforms. Bonus if they have experience working with schools, education, faith-based organizations, or legacy family businesses.
