Freelance Graphic Designer (Packaging & Print)

About Us

FreshCut Paper is a rapidly growing and evolving design forward startup. We are entering into the $8 Billion cut flower industry with a green, cost effective contemporary alternative.
Created by renowned designer Peter Hewitt in 2020. Our life-sized pop-up floral bouquets consist of breathtaking blooms that are wilt-proof, care free, and non allergenic. We are poised to take a bite out of the $8 billion fresh cut flower industry and the $6 billion greeting card market. Our product is a compelling, contemporary, alternative way to send flowers.

Beyond having a fraction of the carbon footprint of imported flowers, we plant a tree for every bouquet sold, and are partners with 1% for the Planet and ASPCA.

Our beautiful office is located in the historical Bradford Mill alongside a community of start-ups and artists.

Opportunity

We're a team of creative problem-solvers who believe design is more than just making things look good—it's about storytelling, strategy, and impact. We work fast, adapt quickly, and balance bold ideas with efficiency. Most of the time, you'll be working quickly by leveraging existing templates, and for the rest, you'll have the opportunity to push creative boundaries with fresh, innovative concepts. If you love turning concepts into visually stunning print materials, we'd love to collaborate with you!

What You'll Do

- Design compelling print materials, including catalogs (twice a year), direct mailers, product packaging, brochures, display signage and other marketing collateral as needed.

- Work efficiently by leveraging existing templates to meet tight deadlines and contribute creatively to brainstorming and develop new design ideas.

- Collaborate closely with our creative director, marketing and in-house teams to ensure compelling visuals and project goals leads to successful business objectives. 

- Ensure high-quality production by preparing print-ready files and working closely with printers and vendors.

- A strong portfolio that showcases your creativity and experience in print design (we'd love to see examples of catalogs, direct mailers, product packaging, brochures, and display signage)

- Experience working for US-based consumer retail brands a plus.

- Fluency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign), with an emphasis on InDesign for layout work.

- Strong knowledge of design principles, typography, color theory, and composition.

- Understanding of print production processes and file preparation.

- Flexibility and adaptability—you can collaborate well with leadership, take creative direction, and refine your designs based on feedback.

- Great communication and organizational skills—you can explain your ideas clearly and take direction constructively.

- Bonus points if you have experience in digital design, but it's not an immediate need

This role will be project based and remote with ability to visit our office and be in person to collaborate on special projects as needed.
