Vehicle Wrap & Production Designer

Graphic Designer (Vehicle Wrap & Production Design)
Remote | VA / Contractor Arrangement

About the Role
We are recruiting on behalf of a fast-growing UK-based vehicle graphics and branding company specialising in commercial vehicle wraps, fleet branding, and large-format print production.
