Do you design both the structure of a package and the artwork that goes on it? We’re looking for a Structural & Graphic Designer who understands how to turn a customer’s concept into packaging that can be built, printed and produced efficiently.

This position combines hands‑on corrugated packaging and point‑of‑purchase display design with graphics and pre‑press production. You’ll develop structures in ArtiosCAD, build prototypes, prepare print‑ready artwork and work closely with sales, vendors and manufacturing to bring projects into production.

What you’ll be doing

• Develop corrugated packaging and display concepts based on customer requirements, budgets and manufacturing capabilities.
• Create structural drawings, dielines, 3D renderings and physical prototypes using ArtiosCAD and CAD cutting-table equipment.
• Create, modify and prepare packaging artwork using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
• Prepare files for flexographic, lithographic and digital printing, including colour adjustments, typography, barcodes and artwork placement.
• Ensure graphics align correctly with cutting, folding and assembly requirements.
• Prepare production drawings, component specifications, bills of materials and assembly instructions.
• Coordinate steel rule dies, printing plates, vendor quotes and component samples.
• Review prototypes and first‑production samples, resolving structural or artwork issues with production teams.
• Manage project revisions and maintain accurate design and production records.

What we’re looking for

• At least three years of relevant structural packaging design and graphics/pre‑press experience.
• Experience designing physical corrugated packaging or POP displays, including prototypes and production‑ready drawings.
• Proficiency in ArtiosCAD, Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
• Experience using Esko cutting‑table software and equipment.
• Knowledge of corrugated grades and flutes, foam materials, die‑cutting and assembly methods.
• Practical understanding of artwork preparation for flexographic, lithographic and digital printing.
• Confidence working with customers, sales, suppliers and manufacturing teams.
• Strong attention to detail, organization and ability to manage multiple projects.
• Relevant education in Structural and Graphic Design or Graphics/Print Production.

Why consider this opportunity?

Join an established, second‑generation family‑run manufacturer with a tenured team, investment in equipment and facilities, and a commitment to work‑life balance.

• $80,000–$90,000 annual salary, depending on experience.
• Employer‑paid medical, dental, extended health, life insurance, critical illness and AD&D coverage after three months.
• Employee‑paid long‑term disability coverage.
• DPSP retirement savings program.
• Employee Assistance Program.
• Paid vacation and sick days.
