Storyboard Designer for Engineering eLearning Courses at Hilliard Clarke Consulting

About the Role:

We are seeking a highly motivated and creative Storyboard Designer to support the development of engineering continuing education courses. In this role, you will be the link between course scripts and our visualization/animation team - transforming written content into visually engaging, actionable storyboards.

Type: At-will, long-term position (ongoing performance required for continued engagement).

Key Responsibilities:

• Review course scripts provided in Word documents.
• Transfer script content to organized PowerPoint slides, ensuring each scene is visually clear and aligns with the instructional goals.
• Source and propose high-quality stock images and video clips that accurately reflect the technical and conceptual content of each script.
• Develop detailed, unambiguous visual layout descriptions and instructions for our animation team - including annotated screenshots or diagrams where needed - to successfully bring each scene to life.
• Collaborate closely with subject matter experts and instructional designers to ensure accuracy and clarity, especially for engineering and technical concepts.
• Maintain a high standard of quality, clarity, and creativity in all deliverables.

What We’re Looking For:

• Portfolio or work samples demonstrating storyboard creation - ideally for e-learning, technical, or STEM-based projects.
• Proficiency with Microsoft PowerPoint (and/or similar tools such as Google Slides, Figma, Photoshop, etc.).
• Experience sourcing and curating imagery, video, and other visual references.
• Ability to write clear, actionable visual instructions for animation and graphics teams.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to capture the “spirit” of a transcript or technical script in visual form.
• Comfort working with technical concepts (engineering background is highly desirable but not strictly required).
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Ability to work full-time in Nairobi office; hybrid working option may be considered after a successful probation period.
