Solving packaging problems for household names and challenger brands in ways that move the commercial needle is what this agency is all about. Their recent work launching a major brand extension for a 150+ year heritage drinks brand - taking it into an entirely new market - shows the calibre of brief they win and the creative thinking they bring to it.

The Role
You'll drive creative vision across packaging, retail visuals, and digital assets for major FMCG clients. This means leading the design process from initial concept through to finished delivery, working hands-on to translate strategic briefs into distinctive solutions that cut through crowded shelves.

Your day involves contributing strategically to idea generation, collaborating directly with clients, and working across design, print, and technical teams to ensure seamless execution. The studio's straight-talking approach means you'll be solving real commercial challenges rather than creating showcase work - your creative decisions need to deliver results in retail environments.

You'll maintain the studio's reputation for top-tier delivery through hands-on involvement and direct problem-solving. This is a role where your creative judgement shapes the work from start to finish.

The Package
£45,000 - £55,000
Hybrid working: 1-2 days in the studio
Enhanced company pension
25 days holiday plus bank holidays

The Person
You're a Design Director with plenty of experience in packaging design, either at an established FMCG branding agency or in-house at a consumer goods company. You have expert-level Adobe Creative Suite skills and a portfolio that demonstrates work on recognised brands and packaging ranges.

You're experienced in client-facing work and cross-functional collaboration with technical teams. Most importantly, you're ready for a role where you guide creative direction rather than execute others' decisions - where your taste and judgement define the quality of the work.
