Job Description

Title : Production Designer

Type : Contract through the end of year with high chance of extension

Location : REMOTE EST or Chicago area

Rate : $24- $26.50 / hr on W2

Day to Day

Taking field from companies, renaming them, organizing them and putting them back up

Very production-based work for the website

Daily check ins w / the team on where they're at w / projects – must be able to directly explain where they're at w / projects

They'll be assigned specific brands to support, and will need to be able to jam through work quickly, following existing brand-specific guidelines

Heavy Photoshop – they're in photoshop 90% of the time

Lot of template work here

30 tickets a week – can have anywhere from 1-4 artworks that need to be designed, exported, and then published

Each ticket can take 4-5 weeks, so it's not 30 tickets in and out w / in one week time, it's 30 tickets from an agile process (they're at different stages)

Web banners

Very basic- templates

Different product graphic

Existing artwork from the brand

Must Haves

1-3 YOE in graphic / production design

Open to more senior people as long as they are down to be a straight do-er

Production-oriented mindset & able to follow existing brand guidelines not an extremely artsy role

Photoshop

Can you open files and diagnose it? Understand what they did? How are the layers made up? How do you make adjustments?

Do you understand how smart objects work?

Exp (or mindset / interest) in a high volume production space

HM's biggest concern in general is finding someone that can keep up w / the pace

30 tickets a week but each ticket can take 4-5 weeks, so it's not 30 tickets in and out w / in one week time, it's 30 tickets from an agile process (they're at different stages & working at one at a time basically)

Nice to Haves

Video / animation editing

After Effects or Premier

Exp working w / CPGs and / or large brands (i.e. Client)
