WHO YOU ARE

  • Enthusiastic. Fathom is a collaborative, open, and friendly agency. We're looking for someone who will be invested and excited to contribute to our team of super-nice folks.

  • Timely. Our designers are trusted to be responsible for their projects and deadlines; knowing their performance = Fathom's reputation.
