Junior Graphic Designer – help create new consumer products & brands in CANADA

We are Foster Innovation Design, a boutique consumer product design consultancy that works with the global teams of some of the biggest brands in the world to spark, design & launch their next new products & brands.

What makes us different? We design through rapid & iterative experimentation – learning from what real consumers out in the real world do with the new product & brand ideas we’re playing with.

(increasingly, we’re also working on experimenting with our own home-grown product ideas)

Come help us design those products by helping us design & execute those experiments. 

Compensation & Benefits:

• The salary range for this role is $50,000 - $65,000 per year.
• There is a profit-share bonus of up to an additional 20%
• The position comes with competitive health benefits

We are 100% remote, but ideally looking for someone in the GTA for regular team-building & collaboration meet-ups (bi-weekly or weekly).

The type of person we’re looking for:

• You love to create new things
• You are design focused, but are also comfortable with words
• You are super curious and love to learn new skills & new insights
• You are a bit obsessed with products
• You want to learn & grow your knowledge & skills beyond pure design -- you want to learn how consumer products are designs & launched, and how those businesses grow
• Perhaps you want to be an entrepreneur someday
• You are creatively collaborative, believing that by working together we can do amazing things
• You, like us, welcome an experiment that proves you wrong with a hungry mind -- enabling you to quickly iterate to test an even better solution
• You don’t mind getting your hands dirty, working all the way from initial design ideas through to highly detailed execution
• You can creatively problem-solve your way to a “good enough” executional solution
• You are quite good at using photoshop, figma & illustrator 
• You are very detail oriented
• You are excited to be one of the first members of a growing team looking to make a big impact

We don’t have a minimum number of years of experience for this role (although our gut says 1-3 years). We highly favour creative talent, curiosity, ability & desire to rapidly learn, and interest.

We think that junior designers, production designers, content creators or growth marketers at creative agencies or in-house at DTC brands may be the right fit, but this is simply a hypothesis. We may be wrong, so if that’s not you, do still apply if this piques your interest.

Some candidates may see our list above and feel discouraged because they don’t match all the items. Please apply anyway: there’s a good chance you’re more wonderful than you think you are.

Foster Innovation Design is a safe place for human beings. We strongly believe in the power & ethics of diversity, and encourage all to apply.
