  • Seasonal campaign direction & lookbook design
  • Packaging & hangtag systems
  • Web direction (handoff to dev) for new labels
  • Photoshoot art direction alongside the founders

MUST HAVE

  • 3–5 yrs brand / identity design

  • Can brief & direct a Graphic Designer below you
  • Can take a founder's half-idea and ship it

NICE TO HAVE

  • Apparel / streetwear / retail experience
