Middleweight Designer

This is a truly unique opportunity to join an award-winning design team. Working in our fast-paced studio, the ideal candidate will have a versatile portfolio full of exciting product identities and lively packaging layouts. We’re looking for someone who is flexible and agile in their outlook, that can work on multiple projects at once, and consistently deliver fresh, vibrant concepts to support our account managers. You must have a positive, can-do attitude and be hard-working, efficient, punctual and driven.

At Professor Puzzle we believe in the benefits of challenging the mind and the importance of creative play. Our business is always busy and constantly evolving – developing inspiring ranges exclusively for the world’s largest retail chains – and we balance this with a fun, friendly studio environment full of creative energy.

Your key responsibilities will include:

▪ Creating commercial, innovative style guides and product identities for leading retailers

▪ Generating concept designs and visuals for packaging, based on briefs from the Product Development team

▪ Considering and tailoring your work to suit the needs of each individual retailer and their customer base

▪ Confidently presenting and discussing your design concepts and ideas in front of colleagues and customers

▪ Preparing packaging and product artwork to send to mass production

A comprehensive understanding of the Adobe Suite is essential, as is a flair for typography and a talent for identifying upcoming market trends and translating them into innovative product and packaging design solutions.

If you have a real passion for the design and gifting industry and thrive working as part of a fast-paced team, please send your CV, portfolio and covering letter.

We look forward to receiving your application.
