Full Time Character Designer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

We're a 2025 Netty Award winner for Best Multidisciplinary Design — and we're looking for the next creative force to help us keep raising the bar.

This role is built for a designer who can do it all — stunning large-format print, fluid motion graphics, and compelling video content — and who thrives in a fast-paced environment where every project is different and the work actually ships into the real world.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Culton Companies designs and builds award-winning trade show exhibits, branded commercial interiors, and museum environments for clients across the country — and the visual content our designers create is a big part of what makes those spaces unforgettable. We're looking for a Multimedia Graphics Designer to join our creative team and help us tell powerful brand stories through print, digital, motion, and interactive media.

This is a fast-paced role where no two projects are the same. You'll work across large-format print graphics, digital signage, motion graphics, video content, and interactive displays — and you'll see your work shipped out and installed in real environments, not just published to a feed.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Design visually compelling large- and mid-format print graphics, informational panels, and display imagery — and prepare files that are print-ready to spec
• Animate and edit motion graphics and video for digital signage, interactive displays, and client presentations
• Develop design solutions that bring brand stories and narratives to life across both static and motion formats
• Manage multiple active projects simultaneously, balancing creative quality with production deadlines
• Collaborate with the design team, sales staff, and clients to understand goals and translate them into effective visual solutions
• Maintain a consistent, high standard of creative vision across every deliverable

WHAT YOU BRING

Required:

• Degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communications, Multimedia, or a related field
• A strong portfolio demonstrating excellence in both graphic design and motion graphics/video
• Advanced proficiency across the Adobe Creative Suite — specifically:

? Photoshop

After Effects

?? Illustrator

? Premiere Pro

InDesign

• Experience designing for mid- and large-format print, informational graphics, and interactive content
• Ability to manage multiple projects and adapt fluidly to shifting priorities
• Strong communication and collaboration skills; team-oriented and comfortable presenting work

Bonus Points For:

• Experience designing for physical environments — exhibits, museums, branded interiors, or similar
• Background in interactive content design or touch-screen interface development
• Motion design experience beyond standard transitions — 3D elements, character animation, or complex compositing

SCHEDULE & COMPENSATION

• Full-time, salaried position — Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
• Competitive salary based on experience and potential
• Based at our Trussville, Alabama headquarters facility

THE PERKS

We take care of the people who bring the creative vision:

401K Retirement Plan

Paid Parental Leave

PTO + 7 Paid Holidays

? AFLAC & Liberty National

FSA Plan

Online Payroll Access
