About the Company
Our client is a custom fine fragrance brand that helps customers create a scent that is uniquely their own. Through US retail studios and an at-home experience, customers explore core fragrances, personalize their blend, and name their scent. Saved formulas make it easy to reorder their custom fragrance.
With a growing eCommerce presence and a bold, modern, playful visual identity, the brand brings its personalized approach to fragrance, gifting, body products, and home fragrance. Its small creative team collaborates across packaging, retail experiences, campaigns, and digital channels.
About the Role
We are in search of a Junior Designer with a strong foundation in print production and packaging design to support our client's custom fragrance brand.

Printer and Vendor Coordination: Work toward ownership of printer and production vendor communication, source vendors when needed, and coordinate artwork handoffs through to print.
Digital and Retail Support: Adapt existing designs for social content, email graphics, advertising assets, web banners, signage, and retail displays as needed, with guidance and training from the Design Lead.
Campaign and Launch Support: Prepare primarily print and packaging collateral, along with supporting digital assets, for seasonal campaigns and product launches.
Asset Management: Keep working files, versions, and final assets clearly organized and accessible; support photo retouching where skills allow.
Creative Development: Build familiarity with the brand and support occasional mixed-media, tactile, or original concept explorations as creative ownership develops.
Collaboration and Delivery: Follow creative direction, incorporate constructive feedback, and communicate progress and agreed deadlines.
