Job description

The Position

The ideal candidate is highly proficient in Adobe InDesign and has experience designing and preparing files for commercial printing.

You should be comfortable taking a customer concept, existing artwork, or rough file and turning it into a professional, production-ready piece. You should also have a strong understanding of layouts, typography, color, bleeds, margins, image resolution, file formats, and the practical requirements of print production.

Responsibilities

  • Design and produce a wide variety of printed materials, including:
    • Business cards
    • Brochures
    • Flyers
    • Postcards
    • Booklets
    • Forms
    • Catalogs
    • Manuals
    • Signs and banners
    • Direct-mail pieces
    • Other marketing and promotional materials
  • Create and modify layouts using Adobe InDesign
  • Use Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop to create and edit graphics, images, and artwork
  • Review customer-supplied files and make necessary corrections for print
  • Prepare files accurately for digital and wide-format printing
  • Check files for bleeds, margins, resolution, color, fonts, image quality, and other potential production issues
  • Proofread and identify errors before files go into production
  • Work on multiple projects simultaneously while meeting customer deadlines
  • Communicate with customers and team members regarding artwork, revisions, and production requirements
  • Collaborate with our production team to ensure jobs are produced accurately and efficiently
  • Maintain organized customer files and follow established file-management procedures
  • Occasionally assist customers with design-related questions and recommendations
  • Help troubleshoot design and production issues when they arise

Qualifications

Required:

  • Strong professional experience with Adobe InDesign
  • Experience designing materials specifically for print production
  • Strong knowledge of Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop
  • Understanding of print-production requirements, including bleeds, crop marks, resolution, color, typography, and file preparation
  • Excellent attention to detail
  • Strong proofreading and quality-control skills
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines
  • Ability to work independently while also collaborating with a team
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced production environment

Preferred:

  • Previous experience working in a commercial print shop, print production environment, marketing agency, or similar setting
  • Experience preparing files for digital presses and wide-format printing
  • Experience working with variable data, mail pieces, or other production-oriented projects
  • Familiarity with Adobe Acrobat Pro and PDF prepress
  • Experience working directly with customers on design projects

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who takes pride in getting the details right.

Our designers aren't simply creating artwork and handing it off. They are an important part of the entire production process. The person in this role needs to understand how design, prepress, and printing work together and be able to identify potential problems before they become costly mistakes.

If you are highly proficient in InDesign, enjoy working on a variety of projects, and have a strong understanding of print production, we'd love to hear from you.
