• Prior experience with equipment is not required; training provided.
• Communicate effectively with fabricators, installers, and team members to ensure project accuracy.
• Assist with shop duties and materials handling (must be able to lift up to 50 lbs).
• May occasionally work at our Washington, DC location as needed (located about 3 miles away)

Who We're Looking For

• 2 - 3 years graphic design experience. Signage experience
• High school diploma or equivalent.

• Strong communication, active listening, and ability to translate client needs into visual concepts.
• Familiarity with FlexiSign preferred - training available.
• Basic understanding of Photoshop for simple edits (not a primary tool).
• Dependable, detail-oriented, organized, and able to manage multiple projects.
