Multi-Disciplinary Brand & Operations Specialist
Workforce Services Inc. 4.3
Operations associate job in Canton, OH
Job DescriptionDescription:
Multi-Disciplinary Brand & Operations Specialist (AI-Powered)
Salary Range: $48,000 - $90,000 (starting based on experience)
We're looking for a true "Swiss Army knife" professional who thrives on variety and uses AI tools to work smarter, not harder.
You'll be replacing our go-to team member who seamlessly handled everything from brand design to fleet operations. If you're the type of person who can design a stunning brand book in the morning, troubleshoot digital management systems after lunch, and create engaging social content before the day ends, we want to meet you.
What You'll Own:Creative & Brand Leadership:
Create and maintain comprehensive brand books, style guides, and visual identity systems
Design marketing materials, hiring ads, and social media graphics that capture attention
Develop clear, visually engaging training materials in both video and literature formats-including video tutorials, PDFs, Word documents, visual aids, and instructional content that makes complex information accessible
Manage our social media presence with creative, on-brand content
Fleet Operations & Administration:
Handle vehicle filing, registration, and insurance coordination with precision
Manage fleet fuel card systems end-to-end: order cards for new vehicles and collect confirmation of receipt, create and send PINs for new drivers, troubleshoot PIN issues, cancel cards for "for sale" vehicles and coordinate their destruction, maintain comprehensive database of active cards and PINs
Oversee vehicle telematics and fleet management : maintain accurate records of active vehicles and drivers, troubleshoot malfunctioning units, coordinate distribution of new units and return of broken/inactive units
Build and optimize administrative workflows using AI and automation tools
Create and maintain organized digital filing systems and documentation processes
AI Integration & Innovation:
Leverage AI tools (ChatGPT, Midjourney, Canva AI, etc.) to rapidly reach 60-80% completion on projects-whether that's content generation, design concepts, or process documentation
Apply your expertise to refine and polish AI outputs to 100% professional quality-you understand that AI accelerates the process, but human judgment and skill deliver the excellence
Continuously identify opportunities to streamline processes through technology while maintaining high standards
What Makes You Perfect for This Role:You're comfortable switching between creative design work and administrative tasks throughout your day, always looking for the most direct path to high-quality solutions. You see AI as a powerful starting point, not the finish line. You're skilled at taking AI-generated content from good to exceptional through your personal expertise and attention to detail.
You'll Thrive Here If You Have:
Strong graphic design skills with proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite or similar professional tools
Experience managing brand guidelines and creating cohesive visual identities
Demonstrated ability to produce professional training materials in both video and literature formats (video tutorials, PDFs, Word docs, instructional guides)
Social media management experience with engaging content creation
Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail for database maintenance and fleet operations (experience with fleet fuel card systems, vehicle telematics, or fleet management platforms is a plus)
Strong troubleshooting abilities and comfort coordinating with drivers and vendors
Active experience using AI tools as force multipliers-getting projects to 60-80% completion quickly, then applying your skills to achieve polished, professional final results
Nice to Have (Not Required):
Graphic design experience
Experience with fleet fuel card systems or similar fuel card management programs
Familiarity with vehicle telematics or vehicle fleet management
Your Approach: You solve problems directly and efficiently. You're self-directed, proactive, and excited about wearing multiple hats. You understand that AI gets you to solutions faster, but you take pride in that final refinement phase-the attention to detail and professional polish that transforms good work into exceptional work. You're equally comfortable designing a brand guide and maintaining a detailed equipment database-both require precision, just in different ways.
Reporting: You'll work directly with our Operations Administrator, who values innovation, efficiency, and creative problem-solving.
To Apply: Submit your resume and portfolio showcasing your design work. Include a brief description of one specific example where you used AI tools to reach 60-80% completion on a project, then explain how you refined and polished it to professional standards. Show us you're not just keeping up with technology-you're ahead of it while maintaining the high standards that make work truly exceptional.
