Color Designer

At Everlane, we want the right choice to be as easy as putting on a great T-shirt. That’s why we partner with ethical factories around the world. Work with high quality and more sustainably sourced materials. And share the true cost of every product we make. But there's a lot more work to be done, and we're excited to be growing a team of motivated humans that are up for the challenge.

The Everlane Design team is a group of passionate people focused on creating product that lives up to our vision: Creating a sustainable way to build a forever wardrobe with a minimum impact on the planet. We believe there is no need to be any compromise between looking good, feeling good, and doing good. We are entrepreneurial and strategic in our approach. We are consumer obsessed, data curious, and prioritize building product that is leading the way for the industry for sustainability and design. The color team champions the product across the company including design, marketing, creative, planning, digital, and product development. Everyone on our team is accountable for our approach; to create an inclusive environment where diverse perspectives are encouraged and both past experiences and new ways of thinking are valued.
