We're hiring a Midweight Graphic Designer at Karst, reporting to our Design Director.

Who we are:

We're a global design-led premium stationery brand specialising in stone paper. We make notebooks, pens, and desk objects for people who care about how things feel as much as how they look. We're sold direct in 50+ countries, and our B2B studio has worked with world-class brands like Porsche, Chanel, Red Bull, and Google on custom product. The team is small and distributed across Australia, London, Europe, and Asia. We care deeply about craft, materiality, brand, and product design.

The role:

You'll work under the Design Director on the visual output of the brand. Campaigns, packaging, ecommerce, print, social, the occasional pitch deck, and the kind of weird side projects that come up when you're building a brand rather than just maintaining one.

This is a hands-on production role with real creative responsibility. You'll be given briefs and expected to bring thinking, not just execution.

A small team means three things. You'll touch a lot of different work. You'll have a real say in it. And you'll see your stuff in the world quickly, not buried in a Slack thread for six months.

Experience in consumer goods, ecommerce, or marketing matters here. You need to understand how design functions commercially, not just aesthetically. If you've worked in a product brand, retail environment, or performance-led marketing studio, that context will serve you well.

We want a designer who thinks, not just executes. Someone with taste, opinions, and the production skills to back them up. The right person will grow fast.

What the work actually looks like:

Packaging, print collateral, and production artwork
eDMs, digital ads, and social content
Campaign layouts and brand rollouts
Website assets and landing page design
AI-assisted image generation and creative concepting
B2B and wholesale collateral

You're probably a fit if

You've got 3-5 years on the clock at a studio, agency, or in-house brand team
You've worked on consumer brands, retail, or ecommerce, somewhere design actually had to perform
Your typography is sharp and your layouts have a point of view
You're fluent in Adobe CC and Figma
You're already using AI tools and have opinions about which ones don't suck
You can hold multiple briefs without quality dropping
You like owning things end-to-end and you don't need to be chased

Bonus points for

Motion or animation basics
Real print production experience (paper stocks, finishes, suppliers)
A premium brand design point of view you'd defend in a room

How we work We're a small team building something special. The brand has room to grow. The work is varied. You'll have a Design Director who'll push you and a clear path to senior if you earn it. Work is hands-on, fast-moving, and design-led. You'll be expected to have opinions, take ownership, and produce work that holds up commercially as well as creatively.

Perks include access to (genuinely) the best stationery in the world, career progression, and travel opportunities to meet the team and our suppliers.

To apply

Email paige@karstgoods(dot)com with the subject line: "Karst Designer — [Your Name]"

Include:

A link to your portfolio (website, Behance, Dribbble, Cargo, Figma)
One piece of your work that you think fits Karst, with one sentence on why
Where you're based and your timezone

Skip the cover letter. We're more interested in how you think about design than how you describe yourself.

A note on fit: this role lives in the world of considered, restrained, premium design. If you're looking to make loud, busy, performance-marketing-driven work, this isn't the right role.
