Current Openings: Graphic Designer and Account Coordinator

 

We are currently recruiting for two full-time remote positions. A “virtual” agency, all Rep Ink team members work from home offices, with team members spread across the United States and Canada, serving clients across the U.S. We aren’t temporarily remote due to COVID-19 (we’ve been remote long before it was cool), and you won’t feel left out when other colleagues go into the office, as we’re all working from home offices. It’s part of our culture, and we value the work-life balance this structure provides.
