About The Position

You are equal parts designer and leader - a tastemaker with sharp creative judgment, a clear point of view, and the systems thinking to make great work scale. This is a deeply embedded role spanning packaging, in-store marketing, digital, and social, where creativity and operational rigor intersect daily. You understand both the craft and the commercial reality, and you navigate that duality with confidence. You inspire and do. You manage up and down. You bring clarity to complexity and momentum to ideas - delivering exceptional brand work with taste, intention, and discipline.

Requirements

• 8+ years of experience in brand design, with demonstrated creative leadership - though we care more about the depth of your experience than the length of it.
• Deep expertise in packaging design and production processes.
• Strong portfolio demonstrating work across physical and digital environments.
• Proven ability to build, document, and scale design systems.
• Hands-on proficiency in Figma, InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop, with curiosity about emerging tools and workflows.
• Experience managing and developing design talent.
• Excellent communication, presentation, and storytelling skills.

Responsibilities

• Brand & Design Systems: Build and maintain scalable design systems across packaging, retail, digital, and social - ensuring visual consistency and quality at every touchpoint.
• Creative Leadership: Work closely with the Head of Creative to identify and refine the best ideas. Set and uphold the creative standard across the team.
• Hands-On Design Contribution: Split your time between leading and making. Contribute directly to packaging, campaigns, digital launches, and brand work - and push collaborators to do the same.
• Cross-Functional Partnership: Work closely with Brand, Product, Retail, Marketing, and Operations to make sure creative work is both great and commercially grounded.
• Team Development: Mentor and develop designers through clear feedback and meaningful growth opportunities. Keep the team moving with clarity and purpose.
• Process and Operations: Manage time and resources well - yours and your team's. Improve workflows where you can, and make sure projects land on time and on scope.
