POSITION
We are looking for a qualified Graphic Designer in the NY/NJ metro area. The candidate’s primary duties will include:
Layout and graphic design of our bi-monthly collection catalog/lookbook
Layout and graphic design for promotional web and print materials
Designing internal documents used by our staff
Special projects related to trade and consumer events (posters, promotional cards, coupons, etc.)
Layout of digital and print knitting patterns, using a brand template
Miscellaneous other design projects for our business throughout the year
Graphic Designer will work closely with the company’s creative director to assist on a wide range of tasks in layout and design.
The position is currently a freelance hourly part-time job with hours fluctuating based on current project load of the brand. The candidate may do some work from home, but will be required to be present in our Jersey City Office/Studio as needed (a short subway ride from Downtown Manhattan and easily accessible via public transit from all boroughs as well as the NJ metro area).
We are a growing business and it is likely that this will progress into a part-time job over the next 12 months. This is an ideal position for people who have experience in fashion/editorial fields, branding, and/or hand knitting industries.
If you are a self-motivated person interested in knitting, yarn, U.S.-made manufacturing and fashion design, and like working in a focused, creative and collaborative atmosphere, this job will be a good fit for you.
