Job description

Meridian, Idaho | Full-Time | $26.00/hr-$28.00/hr

Make Brands More Interesting.

We’re looking for a Graphic Designer who wants to do more than make things look good. We want someone who can take an idea, push it further and turn it into creative work that feels thoughtful, current, and right for our client's brands.

Some days that means developing a merch concept or apparel collection. Others, it’s building a customer presentation, creating campaign graphics, or preparing production artwork that needs to work in the real world.

Your job is to make the idea better, and make sure it can actually be made.

Your Mission

Turn ideas into creative, brand-right work people actually want to see, wear and use.

You’ll work directly with our Marketing & Creative Director and alongside Sales and Account Coordinators to develop creative concepts, elevate customer presentations, and bring stronger visual thinking to branded merchandise, commercial print, and apparel work.

What You'll Do

• Develop creative concepts for branded merchandise, apparel, kits, events and other brand experiences.
• Create customer-facing decks, presentations, mockups and visuals that help bring ideas to life.
• Partner with Sales and Account Coordinators to push customer ideas beyond simply placing a logo on a product.
• Explore decoration, placement, color, packaging and other creative details that make the final product more interesting.
• Support SOLV marketing with campaign creative, collateral, social, email and other brand materials.
• Prepare production-ready artwork and adapt creative across print, apparel, promotional and digital applications.
• Create and revise artwork based on customer feedback, production requirements and project needs.
• Collaborate with internal teams to make sure creative ideas can be produced accurately and effectively.
• Manage and maintain customer artwork files, logos and brand assets within our CRM and internal databases.
• Balance concept-driven creative work with the production design needed to keep projects moving.

Who We’re Looking For

• A strong designer with a portfolio that demonstrates concept development, brand thinking and polished execution.
• A creative thinker who can take a loose idea and push it into something more thoughtful and ownable.
• Strong Adobe Creative Suite skills, especially Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign.
• A strong eye for typography, layout, color, composition and brand consistency.
• Curiosity about apparel, merchandise, packaging, decoration techniques and current design trends.
• Comfort moving between big-picture creative thinking and detailed production work.
• Strong organization, attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.
• A collaborative style and the confidence to bring ideas to the table.

Experience with promotional products, apparel, print, packaging or branded merchandise is valuable, but we’re most interested in a designer who is creatively curious, technically strong and excited to make the work better.

How You’ll Know You’re Winning

• Creative work feels intentional, brand-right and more elevated than the obvious solution.
• Sales has stronger visuals and presentations to help customers understand and buy into ideas.
• Artwork is accurate, organized and ready for production.
• Projects move from concept to execution without creative details getting lost.
• You consistently bring fresh ideas, better options and stronger visual thinking to the work.

This is a full-time, hourly position paying $26–$28 per hour, based on experience.

Benefits include paid leave, paid holidays, health, vision and dental insurance, 401(k), and more.

Why SOLV?

We make a lot of things at SOLV—from branded merchandise and apparel to print, company stores, direct mail and fulfillment.

But what makes the work interesting isn’t the stuff itself. It’s figuring out what should exist in the first place and finding a way to make it real.

That’s why we want people who ask better questions, find the smarter answer and own the outcome.

We’ve been doing this for more than 50 years, but we’re still small enough that your ideas matter, your work gets noticed and you can have a real impact on where we go next.

If you like creating opportunities, building relationships and helping customers push what’s possible, we’d like to meet you.
