Creative Designer (Packaging + Brand)

Creative Designer (Packaging + Brand)
Full-Time | In-Person (Piney Flats, TN)

About the Role

We’re looking for a high-level Creative Designer with strong experience in packaging and brand execution.

This is not an entry-level role. Your work will go directly into production—on shelves, in customers’ hands, and across real brand campaigns. You’ll be designing everything from packaging and dielines to marketing assets and product visuals.

If you can move fast, think independently, and execute at a high level without constant direction, this role offers real ownership and impact.

What You’ll Be Working OnPackaging & Product (Core Focus)

• Design and refine product packaging and labels
• Build and manage dielines and production-ready files
• Prepare files for print (bleeds, CMYK/Pantone, vendor specs, compliance)
• Ensure accuracy and consistency across all packaging
• Contribute to new product concepts and visual direction

Brand & Creative

• Create high-quality marketing assets (social, retail, campaigns)
• Help shape and maintain brand identity
• Ensure a consistent, elevated look across all touchpoints
• Bring ideas—not just execution

Execution & Collaboration

• Work directly with vendors and production partners
• Manage multiple projects and deadlines independently
• Translate ideas into clean, real-world deliverables

What We’re Looking For

• Strong proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator + Photoshop required)
• Packaging experience is REQUIRED
• Deep understanding of:
• Dielines
• Print production
• Packaging workflows
• Ability to produce print-ready, production-level files
• Strong foundation in layout, typography, and brand systems
• High attention to detail (this is critical)
• Ability to move quickly without sacrificing quality
• Self-starter mindset with strong ownership

Important

• Portfolio REQUIRED — no portfolio = immediate rejection
• Must include examples of packaging and/or production-ready work

Bonus (Preferred, Not Required)

• CPG, supplements, or packaging-heavy brand experience
• Apparel or merchandise design
• Email marketing (Klaviyo, Mailchimp)
• Shopify / WordPress / content experience

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: From $15.00 per hour

Application Question(s):

• On a scale of 1–10, how confident are you in your attention to detail when preparing production files? (Explain briefly)
• Do you have a portfolio that includes packaging or production-ready design work? (Link required)
• Have you worked with dielines and prepared files for print production?
• How do you balance speed and quality when working on multiple deadlines? Give an example.
• Are you comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with tight deadlines and minimal direction?
