We are seeking a bright, trend-savvy, and detail-oriented Senior Graphic Designer to lead the charge on packaging design that’s as thoughtful as it is beautiful. This role blends creative vision with execution—developing elevated, sustainable packaging and product solutions that resonate with our customers across both retail and e-commerce.

· Manage vendor relationships, dielines, material selection, proofing, and prototypes to ensure high-quality, print-ready output—making sure work is on time and on cost.
· Maintain organized files and version control across all active projects and packaging SKUs
· Monitor the general competitive landscape of relevant consumer products, and stay ahead of graphic design, CMF, and packaging trends and innovations, particularly in sustainable materials and structures
· Evolve Modern Sprout’s brand identity, create and maintain style guides, define CMF standards, and build reusable asset libraries to keep every touchpoint on brand across development, marketing and sales.
· Manage freelance designers, copywriters, photographers, stylists, and print vendors as needed.
· Support cross-functional needs, including design of tradeshow displays, custom packaging / corporate gifting design
OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE:
· 6–8+ yrs in packaging/graphic design for CPG, lifestyle, or home/garden brands; portfolio shows best‑in‑class work.
· Adobe CC fluency; 3‑D/rendering skills a plus.
· Expert in print production, materials, die‑lines, proofing, and vendor management.
· Proficient with project‑management tools (Asana, Trello, Monday, etc.).
· Strategic thinker & creative problem‑solver who juggles multiple deadlines with impeccable attention to detail.
· Excellent communicator and presenter; comfortable guiding cross‑functional teams.
· Passion for design, sustainability, and Modern Sprout’s mission.
· Green thumb is a plus but not a requirement.
BENEFITS:
· Full-time, salaried. Competitive compensation based off experience.
