Job Description

Summary

Marcal Paper is seeking a Graphic Designer & Creative Producer who can bring our brand vision to life across print, digital, packaging, and video. This role is ideal for a detail-oriented designer who enjoys variety—moving seamlessly from packaging design to digital ads, sell sheets, presentations, and occasional photo / video support. The role provides creative guidance, hands-on design, and cross-functional collaboration to deliver high-quality, consistent, and impactful visuals work that support our business growth and customer engagement.

The ideal candidate is both a strategic thinker and a “doer” able to set the creative tone, manage projects end-to-end, and roll up their sleeves to design everything from spec sheets to digital ads to polished presentations. This position offers the opportunity to make a significant impact by shaping how our brand shows up across every channel while working alongside a collaborative marketing team and trusted external partners.

  • Along with the multimedia designer, design social media and trade publication ads, both for Marcal and distributor partners.
  • Support packaging projects, preparing dyelines and graphics for production partners.
  • Develop internal communications, including newsletters and presentations.
  • Manage and organize creative assets within Marcal’s digital library and platforms (e.g., YouTube, Amazon A+ pages).
  • Presentation & Multimedia
  • Create branded PowerPoint templates and visually compelling presentations that communicate complex information clearly.
  • Support internal and external meetings, sales trainings, and customer presentations with strong visual storytelling.
  • Assist with photography, video shooting, editing, and basic motion graphics as needed.
  • Continuous Improvement
  • Contribute to building efficient creative processes, workflows, and asset management systems.
  • Use A / B testing, performance data, and voice-of-customer (VOC) insights to optimize creative.
  • Stay current with design, video, and digital marketing trends to keep Marcal’s visuals fresh and competitive.
