Freelance Web Designers Needed

Reis has two projects requiring freelance graphic designers. I've provided a brief overview of each below.

If you’re interested in either, please send me a note, including links to your portfolio, at barry-dot-graubart-at-Reis-dot-com.

The first project is for the partial redesign of www.ReisReports.com. The ideal candidate would have strong graphic design experience, excellent UI/UX skills, the ability to tell stories using visual images and a track record of turning around quality work in a timely manner. Our preference is to find someone local (NYC area), available for f2f ideation brainstorms, but I’ll consider those outside the area. While this is initially focused around a small project, we’ve got lots more design work queued up, so this could become a long-term, part-time freelance gig.

The second project is a redesign of a Wordpress blog. This one is pretty straightforward and we can probably leverage existing themes, updated with our branding and desired plugins. Ideal candidates should have a portfolio of visually appealing blogs, and have decent hands-on PHP skills. Quick turnaround is a must.

My preference for both of these projects is to find individual freelancers, available on an ongoing basis. Not looking for marketing agencies or design shops at this time.

About Reis: Reis is the leading provider of commercial real estate information. Tens of thousands of lenders, investors and other commercial real estate professionals rely upon Reis for the information they need to make buy, sell and hold decisions on commercial property.
