Job Description

This is the perfect opportunity for a recent design grad who is looking to gain experience beyond your years! You will design super creative, consumer-facing projects, like logos, packaging, websites, social media content, and marketing campaigns (to name a few). When normalcy returns (and if you live locally), you'll get to go on field trips for brand discovery, photo/video shoots, and sometimes help out at festivals or events.

As the Design Assistant to the Founder/Creative Director, you will work on projects for all entities of Peppermill Projects. This includes clients of Brand Joint, our Cannabis-focused branding agency, as well as direct-to-consumer brands, I + I Botanicals, and Crabcakes & Cannabis.

Looking for portfolios that show strong typographic skills and excellent execution of conceptual work.

WHAT YOU NEED:

• A positive attitude, excitement for new challenges, and desire to keep learning. This position is comparable to continuing your design education through a master's program (but you get paid!)
• Creativity and strong conceptual problem-solving skills
• Strong design, layout, and typography skills are a MUST
• You have some knowledge of coding, customization, and front-end development
• Excellent project planning, organization, and time management skills— deadlines are crucial and fast-paced!

BONUS SKILLS:

If you have capabilities delving into web design, that’s a HUGE plus!

• Webflow experience
• Photography or illustration skills
• Animation abilities
• Video editing capabilities
• Social networking strategies

REQUIREMENTS:

• Completed degree from a rigorous design program
• Strong portfolio showing conceptual problem-solving and excellent typography skills
• Must have taken web design classes or have some skills/knowledge of web development

NEXT STEPS:

Email your resume, portfolio, and a few lines on why you think you’d be a good fit.
