• Good listening skills

AHM Brands is focused on delivering holistic brand experiences on the foundation of highly strategic messaging and visual platforms in the form of a range of creative deliverables– including package design, video production, UX/UI design, digital advertising, environmental design, social media management, website design & development and more.

We are a team of relentlessly curious brand thinkers and doers and are anxious to add another highly creative and unabashedly fun person to our all-star line-up -- someone eager to flex their creativity in many disciplines and embrace the unknown; a thoughtful and empathetic communicator who can engage in good faith debates and receive constructive criticism without packing up their ball point pen and going home. (Yeah, we took the sports metaphor one step too far, didn’t we?)

You don’t need to be expert at everything; you just need to be brave enough to occasionally fail at something new in the search for something great. Because around here we never believe “It can’t be done.” Not when one of our values is Complacency is death! Keep going. And not with an organization-wide commitment to personal development and professional growth.

So, what do you think? Are you brave enough to come along for the ride – and keep going with us?
