Graphic Designer

Steele Brands Management LLC
Wayzata, MN Full Time
POSTED ON 11/23/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 1/22/2026
Description:

We are looking for a brand-obsessed, concept-driven Graphic Designer who wants to do far more than push pixels. This is a role for someone who wants to shape a fast-growing, national lifestyle brand and influence how hundreds of thousands of people experience CRISP & GREEN and PURALIMA every day. We’re looking for a creative partner!

Someone who:

  • Loves ideating AND executing
  • Thinks in campaigns, stories, and brand worlds
  • Wants to participate in concepting
  • Thrives in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment
  • Wants to build something real and lasting

The Graphic Designer plays a central role in defining and growing the visual identity of CRISP & GREEN and PURALIMA. Guided by brand strategy and creative direction, this person creates fresh, high-quality visual assets across digital, social, in-store, environmental, packaging, campaigns, events, and more. This person is equally comfortable sketching ideas for a new seasonal menu direction as they are laying out a printed piece or working with a photographer on mood composition.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Creative Ideation Brand Building

  • Participate in creative development from concept to execution—bringing original ideas, visual POV, and brand-first thinking
  • Contribute to campaign development, naming, seasonal creative concepts, and cross-brand initiatives
  • Help evolve the visual identity systems for CRISP & GREEN and PURALIMA as we expand nationally

Design Execution

  • Create high-quality, on-brand designs across a wide range of deliverables (menus, social, digital ads, in-store signage, packaging, merchandising, franchise sales collateral, product launches, etc.)
  • Build polished mockups and prototypes to bring ideas to life
  • Develop storyboards, shot lists, and art direction for photo video content
  • Translate strategy and marketing briefs into compelling visual concepts

Content Creation

  • Support and co-lead photo and video shoots, including styling, shot composition, lighting direction, and asset oversight
  • Use strong photography and photo-editing skills to produce content that aligns with our brand world
  • Partner with social media and marketing teams to ideate and create content that performs (platform-specific best practices, trend-aware, thumb-stopping)

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work with cross-functional partners across marketing, menu innovation, franchise development, operations, and local store marketing
  • Support franchisees with creative requests while protecting brand integrity
  • Ensure assets are organized, accessible, and updated using modern workflows and systems

Innovation Trends

  • Stay on top of emerging design, food, fashion, culture, wellness, and social trends
  • Identify modern creative opportunities: motion graphics, UX/UI enhancements, environmental design, AR content, etc.
  • Help push the creative bar higher every quarter
Requirements:
  • Bachelor’s degree in related field preferred
  • 3–5 years of experience in brand, digital, or lifestyle design
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating brand building, conceptual thinking, and multi-channel design
  • Expert in Adobe Creative Cloud; familiarity with Figma and motion tools a plus
  • Strong eye for photography, styling, and visual storytelling
  • Experience working with (or appetite to learn) environmental design, packaging, or merch
  • Thrives in a fast-paced growth environment and comfortable with evolving priorities
  • Self-starter who brings energy, ideas, and proactive thinking
  • Passion for health, wellness, lifestyle, hospitality, or food is a plus
