About the role

Part-Time Graphic Design & Letterpress Production Assistant
2 days per week | Thursday & Friday required (in-studio)

We’re looking for a skilled, hands-on craft designer to join our small letterpress studio 2 days per week. This role blends traditional letterpress production with modern graphic design, light digital work, project setup, and studio support.

If you love the tactile side of letterpress, have a strong design eye, and want to work in a focused, low-volume creative shop with real growth potential, this could be a great fit. As the business grows, hours and responsibility can increase for the right person.

Key Responsibilities

  • Set up projects and materials for digital and letterpress production runs
  • Create and refine graphic design layouts for print projects
  • Handle small digital jobs, basic web/Shopify updates, digital assets, and simple photography
  • Assist with project design, client coordination/follow-up, and production workflows
  • Manage production setup, scheduling, and shop organization
  • Support light retail ordering and store displays
  • Keep the workspace clean, organized, and efficient
  • Maintain high-quality craft standards on every project

Must work Thursday and Friday in the studio.

Requirements

  • Minimum 5 years professional experience in graphic design, letterpress, craft design, or closely related field
  • Strong proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop)
  • Basic Shopify / web design knowledge (HTML/CSS or similar) is a plus
  • Experience with production setup, scheduling, and project management
  • Reliable, self-directed, and comfortable working independently in a small shop
  • Genuine passion for hands-on craft and traditional printing
  • Ability to lift moderate weights and stand for extended periods

What We Offer

  • $34/hour
  • Work with beautiful, tactile letterpress processes and creative projects
  • Room to grow as the studio expands
  • Supportive, quality-focused creative environment
  • Employee discount

  • Links to your website, Instagram, or design portfolio (preferred)
  • A short cover letter (1–2 paragraphs) explaining why you’re excited about letterpress and craft design
