We know, and our applicants must know, that our approach to engaging culture will not get us any fancy awards or neat invitations to Cool Conferences, but our aim instead is to stand before kings in our work. We believe that every second matters. Every day, every video, every book, website, and app is an opportunity to point to our Father in Heaven. We work everyday knowing that He is seated on the throne calling the nations to himself. Our mission is to proclaim his Gospel with hard work, compelling creative, and rich theology that is potent in the lives of families around the world. At Canon Press we are here to win and anything short of that is failure. If you or someone you know takes initiative, traffics in excellence, is not looking for worldly recognition, and is good with a shovel—drop us a line. Positions are for full-time employment based at our downtown headquarters in Moscow, Idaho. All creative positions must include a portfolio or reel. Applications submitted without a portfolio cannot be considered. Show us your work!
