Job Title: Production/Installation & Graphic Design Team member

Key Responsibilities:

Produce, or assist the Production Lead to make, finished products for our customers
Assist with installation as needed
Work with the sales and installation team members to ensure customer satisfaction with the finished products
Work with the sales team to translate estimates and orders in the order system to create proofs and layouts
Design customer orders with the focus on the final product to factor in how it will be produced in center or through our vendors
Scheduling the daily workflow of graphics design, printing, production, and installation

This position is for you if:

You have a Great ATTITUDE: enjoy learning, work best in a team, and have a strong sense of personal accountability to create results for yourself and your team
Enjoy problem solving to meet customer's needs, and go the extra step to help them create a vision of what the solution could look like
Detail oriented and organized to ensure a smooth and efficient workflow with the team and for our customers (You will be doing some light project management each day to coordinate with the sales and install team members on where each order is in the workflow and help to prioritize the work)
Have at least 2 years experience in both sign production (physically operating large format vinyl printers and plotters) and sign installation
Fluent with Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop (That is the main graphics software we use)
Fluent with Google's G-Suite (We use that heavily as part of our working environment)
Able to lift and carry up to 50lbs (You may need to help our with the delivery of graphics to the customer site, or else help customers load products into their vehicles from our center)
Can climb ladders (You may have to occasionally assist on complex installs with the Production Lead)

Other "nice" to haves that will put you on the top of our list:

Worked at other FASTSIGNS centers, or other similar competitors in the industry
Extensive graphics installation experience - dimensional, monument, electrical, car wraps, etc
Extensive experience with large format printing and/or graphics/signage production - managing the printing process as well as mounting onto substrates

This position is NOT for you if:

You are primarily driven by creating sophisticated graphic designs and branding campaigns (we're not a marketing agency and so the graphics you will primarily be involved in have real world production and installation limitations though they are still visually stunning with the technology we use to produce them)
You do not like to work with your hands to use the printer, plotter, laminator, and other production in our center to produce the final end product for our customers
You get frazzled by busyness and multiple workstreams, and managing the work daily along with the many team members involved with delivering quality products and services to our customers daily
You don't get excited to engage and build relationships with customers, and would rather stay isolated in front of a screen
You are not curious about new technologies in materials and production and prefer to stick with only what you've done before and is easiest
You don't like working with your hands to bring your designs to reality and prefer digital graphics only, and you definitely don't see yourself getting on a ladder to help install the graphics from time to time
You are looking to clock out at 5pm every day and have the same exact schedule every day

If all this still sounds good to you, we provide:

Paid Vacation, Holidays, and Sick days
Benefits
Paid travel to training and conventions out of state as you succeed in the role
Opportunities to develop your career and train for other roles, e.g. Graphics & Production Lead, Production Manager, Center Manager, as our Center expands and grows

Compensation: $18.00 - $24.00 per hour

At FASTSIGNS, every day is unique and presents exciting opportunities, including new ways to use your talent and grow your skills. We have a large network of independently owned locations - both locally and internationally - who offer competitive pay and ongoing training opportunities.
