Job description

The Brand
An ambitious, fast-growing snack company operating across the UK and US is on a mission to become the go-to feel-good crunchy snack for families everywhere. With strong momentum and a growing presence in thousands of stores, the brand is entering a pivotal stage of its journey—scaling rapidly and building toward iconic global status.

The Opportunity
This is a rare chance to step into a high-impact creative leadership role at a defining moment. The company is seeking a visionary Creative Designer to help shape, build, and elevate the brand across every touchpoint. From packaging to digital, retail to social, this role will play a central part in crafting a distinctive, joyful, and culturally relevant brand experience.

The Role: Creative Designer
The successful candidate will be a hybrid creative—part thinker, part maker, part doer—capable of leading ideas from concept through to execution. They will be responsible for delivering bold, standout creative work across multiple channels, including:

  • Packaging
  • Social media
  • Digital platforms
  • In-store and out-of-store retail
  • Campaigns
  • Content (from short-form social to experimental, culture-led formats)

This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives on turning ideas into reality, shaping design vision, and building a brand that resonates globally.

Key Responsibilities

  • Evolve and elevate the brand’s visual identity across all consumer touchpoints
  • Build and scale a dynamic, feel-good content engine
  • Concept and execute campaigns that engage, entertain, and inspire sharing
  • Collaborate closely with founders, marketing leadership, and cross-functional teams
  • Lead and inspire internal creatives and external partners
  • Art direct and oversee photo and video production
  • Design packaging that stands out on shelf and builds lasting brand recall
  • Leverage AI tools to accelerate creative output and experimentation
  • Stay ahead of cultural, design, and social trends

Candidate Profile

  • A strong portfolio demonstrating both creative excellence and strategic thinking
  • High proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, with openness to emerging AI tools
  • Ability to move seamlessly between big-picture brand thinking and hands-on execution
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills
  • A proactive, entrepreneurial mindset with a bias for action

Desirable Skills

  • Photography, video, animation, illustration, or motion design
  • Experience creating engaging, culturally relevant social content
  • Ability to translate everyday retail moments into culturally resonant experiences

Culture & Values
The company values individuals who bring:

  • Entrepreneurial drive
  • Positive, solution-oriented energy
  • Curiosity and creativity
  • Ownership and initiative
  • A collaborative, “make it happen” mindset
  • A sense of humour and appreciation for simple joys

Why Join
This is a defining moment in the brand’s growth trajectory. The business is scaling quickly, and this role offers the opportunity to make a tangible impact—creating work that reaches millions across shelves, screens, and real-world experiences.

For the right candidate, this is more than a job—it’s a chance to help build the next iconic snack brand from the inside out.
