About The Position

Sock Club is looking for a Production Design Assistant to join our creative team and help us deliver the highest quality custom socks in the promotional products industry. Known for our attention to detail, fast turnaround times, and standout designs, we're seeking someone who can help our designers keep the creative pipeline moving, without sacrificing quality. This is a production-first role. The bulk of your day will be spent on revision-based work driven by requests from our Sales and Operations teams - not starting designs from scratch. You'll prepare production-ready files for our mills, handle design revisions, and prep design assets that keep our socks looking their best from concept to customer. If you take pride in precision, thrive under pressure, and get satisfaction from moving a high number of tasks through to completion efficiently, this role is a great fit. If you're primarily looking to grow a design portfolio or take on open-ended creative work, it may not be the right match.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in a related field
1-2 years of relevant experience in a similar role, preferably in a fast-paced environment
Proficiency in Adobe Products (Photoshop and Illustrator)
Sharp attention to detail and commitment to quality
Strong organizational and time management skills
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, especially for managing expectations

Nice To Haves

Print production experience
A positive, adaptable attitude - this role rewards people who find flow in repetitive, precise work and who don't need a lot of creative autonomy to feel engaged.
