Baseball America magazine seeks an experienced, organized Page Designer to join their Art Department. We're looking for a talented designer who can create thoughtful layouts, brainstorm ideas, and work closely with writers and editors to create solid visual journalism.

Potential candidates should have a college degree with 2-3 years of editorial design experience at a magazine or newspaper. Strong design and typography skills and proficiency in InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator are essential. Knowledge of Flash is preferred, but not required.
