Work Environment

This role offers a supportive, close-knit culture where colleagues look out for one another and leadership fosters a family-oriented atmosphere. The organization operates as a family-run business that places a strong emphasis on caring for employees and providing meaningful benefits in an interesting and dynamic industry. During the first approximately six months, you work on-site Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. for training and onboarding. After training, the position transitions to a hybrid schedule, typically with one to two days per week in the office depending on workload. Travel is an integral part of the role, with about 25% travel expected—generally one trip per month for a Monday-to-Friday period, where Monday and Friday are travel days and Tuesday through Thursday are client site days; occasionally there may be two trips in a month or no trips in a given month, depending on project needs. You collaborate closely with creative and technical teams and use tools such as Adobe Creative Suite and other digital production technologies to deliver high-quality content.
