About the role

  • Graphics & Packaging Design
  • £28,000
  • Cheltenham + hybrid

Fancy seeing your designs on retailer shelves around the world? We’re on the hunt for a Junior Designer to join a fast-paced, successful creative product business.

This is a hands-on role for someone who wants real, varied design experience from day one, across packaging, print, digital and marketing. You’ll be part of a busy, supportive design team where no two days look the same: one minute you’re designing packaging for a new product range, the next you’re pulling together social assets for a global launch, or prepping print-ready artwork bound for suppliers.

If you love turning a brief into tangible on shelf products, and you’re keen to grow your skills as part of a friendly, collaborative studio, we’d love to hear from you.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Turning briefs from Product Development into design concepts, 3D visuals and mock-ups
  • Spotting design trends and keeping an eye on the competitor market to keep ranges ahead of the curve
  • Amending and refining concepts as directed by the Senior Designer / Creative Director
  • Accurately applying in-house and customer style guides across the product range
  • Preparing print-ready files, liaising with PD, Production, & factories to check & approve samples
  • Supporting the Digital & Marketing teams with social assets, website content, and email design
  • Photographing products for catalogues, websites and social media
  • Producing sell sheets, trade fair materials and brand catalogues for each territory
  • Keeping artwork organised and correctly filed on the server
  • Pitching in wherever the team needs you – mock-ups, presentations, trade show prep, etc

What you’ll bring:

  • A degree in Graphic Design or equivalent commercial experience, in-house or agency
  • A multi-disciplinary skillset – equally comfortable designing for print and digital
  • Some packaging experience, whether from university projects, self-directed work, or a previous role
  • A sharp eye for colour, layout, composition and typography, with the discipline to stick to brand guidelines
  • Confidence in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop). Figma or After Effects experience is a bonus, as are basic photography skills
  • A commercial mindset – you understand shelf impact and what makes consumers pick one product over another
  • Excellent attention to detail, strong communication skills, and the organisation to juggle multiple projects without missing a beat.
  • Bags of creativity and enthusiasm, with a genuine desire to grow your skills in a fast-paced environment

Why join:

This is a brilliant opportunity to build your design experience across packaging, print, digital and marketing – all within a supporting, friendly studio that loves what it does. If you’re ready to see your work go from screen to shelf, get in touch!
