Job Description

We’re looking for a Senior Designer to join our in-house Creative Team. We are responsible for driving the pick-up appeal and cultural relevance of both of our snack brands, PROPER and Eat Real. We produce everything in-house, from our packaging to our brand campaigns and everything in between. With a hunger for both brands to be bolder than ever before, we are now on the hunt for a brilliant Senior Designer to help us double the brands over the next 2-3 years.

They’ll be highly creative with a finger-on-the-pulse when it comes to culture. They’ll thrive in a fast-paced environment. A natural leader: they’ll be running projects from start to finish, inspiring and mentoring more junior members of the team, and securing buy-in from key stakeholders along the way.

  • Be the design guardian for both brands, signing off all day-to-day design, and inspiring the wider business to adhere to brand and visual guidelines.
  • Lead the packaging process from the point of creative sign-off to production: briefing the artworking agency, reviewing and signing off packaging artwork, and passing colours on press.
  • Commission creative partners where relevant: typographers, photographers, and illustrators.
  • Support the Studio Manager to find the right surge resource, whether it be freelancers or agencies.

Requirements:

  • Minimum 8 years’ industry experience.
  • Brilliant creative portfolio demonstrating a breadth of work and a visual synergy with the PROPER brand.
  • Brilliantly strategic mind. With a keen interest in the business context and drivers.
  • Great ideas that demonstrate an understanding of what’s culturally relevant and what will “stick”.

  • Must be comfortable in a fast-paced environment, able to prioritise and meet deadlines.
  • Highly proficient in Creative Cloud.
  • Proficient in PowerPoint.
  • The ability to illustrate and animate is advantageous.
  • Unfaltering eye for detail.
