JWallquest | Wayne, PA
Full-time | In Person | Monday–Friday
Compensation based on experience
About the Position
Wallquest is seeking a highly organized and technically strong Graphic Designer to join our creative team with a focus on print production, project management and creative execution.
This position is ideal for someone who combines strong graphic design skills with an understanding of interiors, textiles, wallcovering, pattern and color, but who also enjoys the technical side of bringing creative projects into production.
You’ll work directly with our Graphics Department Manager to coordinate and execute projects across wallcovering collections, catalogs, sampling, photography, packaging, marketing materials, digital content and print production.
We need someone who can take a project from creative concept through the details required to actually produce it.
That means keeping projects organized, managing deadlines, preparing accurate artwork, communicating with other departments, troubleshooting problems and making sure nothing gets lost between design and production.
This role is a strong fit for someone who is creative, but also naturally thinks:
Is the file correct? Is the color right? What is the deadline? What are we waiting on? What's the next step?
What You'll DoGraphic Design & Creative Production
- Design catalogs, collection books, brochures, presentations, packaging and marketing materials
- Work with wallcovering patterns, colorways, textures, photography and interior imagery
- Prepare and modify artwork in Adobe InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop
- Build production-ready files for internal and external printing
- Retouch, color-correct and prepare photography and product imagery
- Maintain consistency across print, digital and physical materials
- Review artwork for layout, typography, color, image quality and technical accuracy
Print Production
- Prepare files for commercial and digital print production
- Review bleeds, trim, resolution, color space, linked assets, fonts and final artwork specifications
- Create and review print-ready PDFs and production artwork
- Understand the differences between RGB and CMYK workflows
- Work with high-resolution photography and large graphic files
- Coordinate proofs, revisions and final production files
- Inspect work for errors before it reaches production
- Troubleshoot artwork and file issues with internal production teams and outside vendors
- Help maintain consistent color and image quality across different printed materials
- Organize final production assets, versions and archival files
Project Management
- Manage multiple creative and production projects simultaneously
- Maintain project schedules, priorities and deadlines
- Track projects from initial request through final delivery
- Coordinate artwork, photography, samples, approvals and revisions
- Communicate project status clearly to the Graphics Department Manager and other departments
- Follow up proactively when information, approvals or assets are missing
- Keep projects moving rather than waiting for someone else to identify the next step
- Coordinate with product development, sales, marketing, manufacturing and outside vendors
- Maintain organized project files and version control
- Identify potential production issues before they become problems
Who We're Looking For
This position requires a somewhat unusual combination.
We need someone who has the visual instincts of a strong designer but the organizational mindset of a project manager.
You should have an excellent eye for:
- Pattern
- Color
- Texture
- Typography
- Photography
- Composition
- Interior styling
- Product presentation
But you should be equally comfortable working with:
- Deadlines
- File specifications
- Production requirements
- Proofs
- Revisions
- Project schedules
- File organization
- Quality control
- Multiple projects happening simultaneously
You are probably the person who notices when something is slightly off before everyone else does.
And then you fix it.
You'll Thrive Here If You:
- Are extremely organized and detail-oriented
- Have strong follow-through
- Work with a sense of urgency
- Take ownership of projects
- Enjoy solving technical problems
- Can prioritize when several projects are moving at once
- Communicate clearly and proactively
- Don't need constant reminders to keep a project moving
- Enjoy both creative work and production work
- Understand that beautiful design still needs to be accurate, producible and delivered on time
- Are curious about how things are actually manufactured and produced
- Have a genuine interest in interior design, textiles, wallcovering, furniture and home décor
- Enjoy learning new software, equipment and production processes
Qualifications
- Professional graphic design or creative production experience
- Strong portfolio demonstrating sophisticated graphic design skills
- Advanced proficiency in Adobe InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop
- Strong understanding of typography, layout, color and image composition
- Experience preparing files for professional print production
- Experience working with high-resolution imagery and production artwork
- Strong file-management and organizational skills
- Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
A degree in Graphic Design, Textile Design, Surface Design, Interior Design, Visual Communications or a related field is preferred, but relevant experience and portfolio quality will carry significant weight.
Particularly Valuable Experience
Strong preference will be given to candidates with experience in one or more of the following:
- Wallcovering
- Textile or surface pattern design
- Interior design
- Commercial printing
- Digital printing
- Prepress
- Color management
- Catalog production
- Photography and retouching
- Home furnishings
- Fabric
- Furniture
- Packaging
- Project management
- Creative operations
Experience working directly with printed products or manufactured design products is particularly valuable.
Portfolio Requirement
A portfolio is required for consideration.
In addition to finished design work, we're interested in candidates who can demonstrate experience taking projects from concept through production.
Relevant portfolio work may include:
- Catalogs and lookbooks
- Textile or surface-design projects
- Wallcoverings or interiors
- Print production
- Packaging
- Photography
- Pattern and color work
- Product launches
- Large multi-page documents
- Production artwork
We are looking for someone with both visual taste and technical depth, rather than a portfolio focused primarily on logos, corporate graphics or social media.

Tips for Your Print Designer Job Search
Show press-ready files in your portfolio
Clients and hiring managers check whether you understand print production, not just visual design. Include work that demonstrates bleed setup, CMYK color builds, and files prepared for offset or digital print. A pretty PDF without production context won't convince a print-focused team.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists print designer openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Tailor your resume to the output type
Print designer roles vary enormously: packaging, editorial, large-format, and collateral each have distinct tool and production requirements. Read the job description carefully and lead your resume with the output types most relevant to that role, not a generic design skills list.
Demonstrate software depth beyond the basics
Most listings require proficiency in InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop, so listing them alone won't differentiate you. Call out specific capabilities like data merge for variable printing, InDesign GREP styles, or Illustrator's overprint preview to signal real production fluency.
Prepare for a print-specific technical screen
Many print design interviews include a file review or a short production task, such as checking a document for common preflight errors. Practice explaining your prepress workflow out loud so you can walk an interviewer through your process confidently and without hesitation.
Negotiate by citing deliverable complexity
When discussing compensation, anchor your ask to the complexity of what you'll produce. Multi-SKU packaging systems, regulated label copy, and long-run offset work carry more production risk than single-page collateral, and that distinction is worth naming directly in your negotiation.
Print Designer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most print designers?
The companies hiring the most print designers right now include Minuteman Press, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and Free People, with the largest share of openings in California, Pennsylvania, and New York, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Packaging manufacturers, publishing houses, and large consumer brand teams consistently post the most volume.
How many print designer jobs are remote?
About 44% of print designer openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, though remote availability varies significantly by specialization. Editorial and brand identity roles tend to have more remote flexibility, while packaging and large-format print positions often require on-site access to production equipment and vendor proofing.
How do you become a print designer?
Most print designers start with a degree or certificate in graphic design, then develop production skills through coursework or self-directed practice in InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop. Building a portfolio of print-specific work, including pieces that show file setup and production intent, is essential. Entry-level roles at print shops, in-house brand teams, or agencies give you hands-on prepress experience that employers look for.
How do you get hired as a print designer with little experience?
Focus your portfolio on print output specifically, even if projects were self-initiated or freelance, since employers care more about production competence than client pedigree. Demonstrating that you can set up a bleed, manage color profiles, and prepare files for a printer matters more than the number of paid jobs on your resume. Internships at print production studios or in-house creative teams are a direct path in.
What does the print designer interview process look like?
Most print designer interviews include a portfolio review where you walk through your work and explain your production decisions, followed by a conversation about your software workflow and experience with vendors or print specifications. Some employers add a short technical task, such as reviewing a file for preflight issues or recreating a layout to assess accuracy. Final-round interviews may involve meeting the broader creative or marketing team.
Where can I find and apply to print designer jobs?
You can find and apply to print designer jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Find the roles that fit your experience and specialization, then apply directly to each listing. No intermediary steps are required between finding a role and submitting your application.
