Lead Graphic Designer - 67796993028

A growing hair care consumer goods brand is hiring a full-time, remote Lead Graphic Designer to produce and direct the visual work behind its campaigns, packaging, web presence, and events.

This is a working designer position first and a leadership position second. You will create the majority of the finished artwork yourself each week, across email, web, social, packaging, and trade show materials. When extra capacity is needed, you will guide freelancers and print vendors, but the core design stays with you. You will report directly to company leadership and help set the creative standard for the brand.
