A smart, tight-knit, hard-working team of designers, strategists, and writers, we partner with CPG and B2B brands in Food + Beverage, Pet + Animal, and Health + Wellness. We lead strategy sessions. We develop brand identities, websites, ads, trade show experiences, and other strategic creative. We create campaigns, presentations, and sales tools. We produce retail packaging and do custom, in-house photography and videography.

To help us better serve our partners and continue our growth, we’re looking for a Graphic Designer and all-around decent person with a caboodle (that’s a quantity, right?) of professional experience designing some combination of digital and print, packaging, environmental, and/or other media for clients. They will partner with colleagues on the Creative team daily to both develop and extend design through to print-ready, publication-ready, trade-show-booth-graphic-ready, social-media-ready, and other-ready files. Specifically, we’re looking for someone with the desire to work collaboratively but with the ability to work independently and help see things through with precision.
