Overview
Kids First Group (KFG) is the leading group in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Doha for providing premium early years education and childcare.
Founded in 2011, we have 36 nursery schools.
We stand unique from other group nurseries, as each of our Kids First Group nurseries specializes in and is passionate about their own exclusive curriculum and pedagogical approach: spanning a choice from the Early Years Foundation Stage (British EYFS), Montessori Method, and Reggio Emilia Approach, to name a few.
We're looking for a creative and digitally fluent Design Intern to join our in-house team for the summer.
Working directly alongside Je, our Senior Designer, you will contribute hands-on to live social media campaigns, branded content, and video assets across our nursery portfolio.
This is a high-output, fast-paced placement built for someone who moves quickly between tools, understands the aesthetics of modern social content, and is already experimenting with AI-powered design workflows.
What You'Ll Do
- Support Je in producing on-brand creative assets for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and LinkedIn campaigns across the KFG nursery brands
- Design static and animated content for paid social, organic feeds, Stories, and Reels — from brief to final export
- Edit short-form video content for social: reels, event highlights, nursery walkthroughs, and seasonal campaigns
- Use AI-powered design tools (Canva AI, Adobe Firefly, CapCut AI, or equivalents) to accelerate ideation and asset production
- Maintain brand consistency across multiple nursery brands using existing brand guidelines
- Assist with resizing and adapting master creatives for different social formats and platforms
- Organise and manage the digital asset library — naming, filing, and version control
- Contribute ideas in campaign briefings and offer a fresh perspective on content trends
- Support occasional ad-hoc design requests from the broader marketing team
Essential — You Must Have
- Demonstrated experience with Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, Premiere Pro or After Effects)
- Strong working knowledge of Canva — including Canva AI features (Magic Design, Text-to-Image, AI video tools)
- Video editing skills for social media: short-form, vertical-first content with subtitles, transitions, and sound design
- Familiarity with AI-assisted video tools such as CapCut, Runway ML, Pika Labs, or similar
- An understanding of what makes content perform on Instagram Reels, TikTok, and Facebook
- A strong eye for typography, layout, colour, and visual hierarchy
- A portfolio or work samples demonstrating social media creative and/or video editing work
- Nice to Have:
- Experience with motion graphics (After Effects or equivalent)
- Exposure to education, consumer lifestyle, or family-focused brand aesthetics
- Basic knowledge of social media scheduling platforms (Later, Buffer, or Meta Business Suite)
- Familiarity with AI image generation tools (Midjourney, Adobe Firefly, DALL-E)
- Arabic language skills — not required, but a bonus in our market
