Apparel Graphic Designer- Indie/NSW - ,

It's time to let who you are determine where you work, and not the other way around. From guitarists to graphic designers to people whose skills defy description, the Nike design group is definitely an atypical work environment. Every few months our design library hosts an exhibit on different design topics - a recent exhibit featured "Rockets, Robots and Ray Guns." And there's also our bi-annual design conferences where the entire staff gets together to swap ideas and inspire each other.

All of this to say, yes, of course, we're committed to creating the best athletic shoes, apparel and equipment imaginable. But the truth is, we think people are more productive when they're having fun.
