To finalize client artwork, Product Layout Designers work closely with our in-house team of Client Success Managers (CSMs), who correspond directly with our customers. Since this is not a client-facing design position, you will not need to be both a graphic designer and a customer service representative!

• Design specialized artwork for menu boards, monitor displays, web graphics and more!

• Prioritize, accomplish, and balance your workflow according to project importance and deadlines. Execute and prioritize multiple tasks and perform in a fast-paced environment to meet daily, weekly and monthly deadlines.
• Thoroughly proof artwork and abide by established design standards and print specification checklists to ensure error-free material.
• Be a team player; step in for other designers as needed. Effectively communicate with coworkers via email, direct message, phone, or face-to-face.
• Accept and incorporate constructive criticism to refine designs, while adapting to ever-changing design standards to align with the unique needs of various industries.
• Take ownership and remain professional in the event a mistake is made. Handle all feedback in a professional manner and appropriately prioritize dissatisfied customers.
