About the role:

You'll be the primary design engine of the Jacob media team, building a curated visual presence with an unmistakable aesthetic point of view
Working directly with our founder and creative director, you'll touch every piece of media a customer sees: campaign graphics, social and paid formats, out-of-home, retail moments, brand collateral. Every word a customer reads and every image a customer sees from Jacob must be held to the highest of standards, represent our premium quality, and speak to our brand voice and message in a consistent, appealing manner.
We're not looking for a classic food-and-beverage designer. We're looking for someone who understands design at its heart–its restraint, craft, and power to build worlds–and wants to bring that philosophy somewhere it rarely lives.

What you'll do:

Design campaign graphics and craft stunning visual assets across every touchpoint
Build campaign worlds–visual identity, typography, and layout systems
Adapt and format campaign creative across dozens of placements and specs while keeping the visual system airtight
Collaborate daily: briefs and reviews with our founder and creative director, handoffs with content manager, timelines with producers
Understands how to work on dielines with a packaging printer to support flavor launches and product drops with packaging design work

7+ years of design experience at a brand, studio, or agency–likely in fashion, lifestyle, editorial, or culture
A portfolio that shows taste: restraint, exceptional use of typography, and world-building (not trend-chasing)
You understand design at its core and are excited to bring that philosophy to a category that's never seen it done right
Comfortable working inside someone else's vision: you disagree usefully, bring your craft, and don't need to be the author
Direct, low-ego, and energized by working shoulder-to-shoulder with a small team where the best idea wins
Obsessive about details, operate with speed, and delivers on-time in-full
Multi-disciplinary: this role is for someone who doesn't fit neatly into one "graphic designer" box
A contact book of freelance design/production talent is a plus
Photo-editing skills are a plus
Animation/motion-graphics skills are a plus
