Graphic Designer

About the Company

NexGel Inc. is a fast-expanding, publicly listed consumer health and beauty business with annual revenue in the $5 million to $10 million range. Its portfolio includes direct-to-consumer beauty, wound care, and digestive health brands sold through e-commerce channels. The lead brand is Silly George, a premium beauty label best known for its Pop-On Lashes, which are pre-glued lashes made for multi-day wear. The portfolio also includes Kenkoderm, a psoriasis-focused skincare brand, and Medagel, a hydrogel wound care brand.

Role Overview

The company is moving its graphic design function fully in-house and is seeking a flexible designer to take ownership of creative work across its brands. Most of the work will center on Silly George, especially lash, mascara, and tool launches, along with educational and demonstration-style creative that supports those launches. Kenkoderm and Medagel projects will appear occasionally.

This position is highly hands-on and suited to a strong all-round designer. Breadth and adaptability are important, but the main responsibility is driving Silly George creative. The team is lean, so work moves quickly and has direct customer impact. Although the role is fully remote, the selected candidate must be available during East Coast working hours.
