Freelance Graphic Designer

Job Description

Job Description

Description:

You’re designing products people choose to wear on their bodies—for a day, a weekend, a moment. It’s expressive, cultural, a little nostalgic, and always evolving. One day it’s licensed characters, the next it’s internet humor, the next it’s something no one’s seen before.

It’s serious design work…just way more fun!

At TM International, we don’t just make temporary tattoos—we create tiny, wearable moments of culture. This is a place where high-quality design meets a little bit of chaos (the good kind).

We’re looking for a Freelance Graphic Designer who’s equal parts trend-spotter, illustrator, graphic designer and idea machine. Someone who can move seamlessly from concept to production, designing everything from tattoo flash sheets to packaging to digital content, while keeping things fresh, relevant, and just a little unexpected.

You’ll play a key role in shaping the creative direction of our product lines, licensed collaborations, and more. Beyond the product, you’ll help evolve the brand across digital, social, and beyond—because great design doesn’t stop at the tattoo.

You’ll collaborate closely with Marketing, Product, and Production to bring ideas to life—from scrappy brainstorms to final, production-ready assets. If you love working on a team that’s fast-moving, collaborative, and genuinely fun to be part of, you’ll fit right in.
