Such a person needs to be familiar and updated with the latest trends as well as technologies and understand business economics with customer behaviour.

Canva

On the home screen there are categories which covers all possible options required on social media and even desktops. Odd things like CD cover, magazine cover, newsletter, label, gift card, ID card, and much more. Each category has hundreds of samples. Select a sample and hit the edit button. For those who wants to begin with a clean slate, there is always a blank. Size wise, this is a winner since you can accurately cover each post size.
Finally, there is Account settings and team. You can be a part of team and share designs which can be edited. Also whatever designs you prepare on smartphone can appear on the PC or laptop and editing can be done from anywhere. There are far too many features of Canva which cannot be covered here.
