About Digital Green

Digital Green is a global non-profit that leverages digital platforms and community-driven approaches to improve smallholder farmer livelihoods. FarmerChat—our AI-powered, multilingual advisory platform—delivers timely, locally relevant guidance on climate-resilient farming, pest management, input use, and market access in English. While FarmerChat has demonstrated strong value for farmers, there is a clear opportunity to strengthen its digital presence and scale farmer onboarding. Digital Green Foundation Kenya (also DGFK) is therefore engaging a qualified Graphic Designer to drive growth across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube with DGFK teams on social media engagement. 

About the Role: Graphic Designer 

The Graphic Designer will lead the design and creative direction for FarmerChat, ensuring a visually engaging and user-friendly experience across the app and all digital touchpoints. This role involves collaborating closely with the product and program teams to translate user insights and growth strategies into intuitive, high-impact designs. The consultant will design and produce multimedia content for in-app interfaces, marketing campaigns, and social media — enhancing user engagement, accessibility, and trust. Additionally, they will maintain brand consistency across platforms while developing scalable templates and design systems for future campaigns.

3. Collaboration & Cross-Functional Support
