Job Description
The Company
This fast-growing, London-founded snack brand is rapidly scaling across the UK and US, building a new category within FMCG and carving out a distinctive space at the intersection of food, culture, and lifestyle. With strong retail distribution and a growing direct-to-consumer presence, the brand has developed a loyal following and a recognisable, feel-good identity.
Known for its playful tone, bold design, and culturally relevant marketing, the business is on a mission to become a globally iconic snack brand. Every touchpoint — from packaging to social to real-world activations — is treated as an opportunity to create joy, spark conversation, and build lasting brand love.
The Role
The company is looking for a Creative Designer to take a leading role in shaping and elevating the brand as it enters its next phase of growth. This is a hybrid role for a designer who can think big, execute fast, and bring ideas to life across every channel.
Working closely with founders and cross-functional teams, this person will help define how the brand shows up visually and culturally — from shelf to screen to street. The role spans packaging, campaigns, content, retail environments, and social, with a strong emphasis on creating work that is both commercially effective and culturally engaging.
This is not a purely executional role. It requires someone who can concept bold ideas, respond to trends in real time, and contribute to a high-volume, social-first content engine. From reactive, guerrilla-style marketing moments to larger campaign launches, this designer will play a key role in making the brand impossible to ignore.
Key responsibilities include:
- Evolving and elevating the brand’s visual identity across all consumer touchpoints
- Designing standout packaging that captures attention on shelf and translates into culture
- Concepting and creating campaigns, content, and brand moments across digital and physical environments
- Contributing to and building a high-output, social-first content engine
- Developing reactive and guerrilla-style creative that taps into trends, memes, and cultural moments
- Collaborating closely with founders, marketing, and wider teams to bring ideas to life quickly
- Art directing and supporting photo/video shoots and content production
- Leading creative development from concept through to final execution
- Exploring and leveraging new tools (including AI) to scale content and unlock new creative approaches
The Person
The ideal candidate is a creative hybrid - part designer, part art director, part cultural observer — with the ability to move seamlessly between big ideas and hands-on execution.
They will likely have:
- A standout portfolio that demonstrates both strong visual taste and strategic thinking
- Experience working across packaging, brand, campaigns, and social content
- A strong understanding of FMCG, DTC, or lifestyle brands
- Experience creating or contributing to reactive, trend-led, or guerrilla-style marketing
- Confidence working across both polished campaigns and lo-fi, social-first content
- Proficiency in core design tools, with an openness to experimenting with emerging technologies
They are:
- Entrepreneurial, proactive, and comfortable taking ownership
- Fast-moving and able to execute ideas quickly without over-polishing
- Deeply plugged into internet culture, trends, and visual language
- Collaborative and energised by working cross-functionally
- Curious, optimistic, and solutions-oriented
- Motivated by creating work that people notice, share, and talk about
Why This Role
This is a rare opportunity to help shape a brand at a pivotal moment of growth. The work won’t sit in presentations — it will live in the real world: on shelves, across social platforms, in campaigns, and in the hands of millions of consumers.
For a designer who wants to build something culturally relevant, commercially impactful, and genuinely fun, this role offers both creative freedom and real ownership — with the chance to help define the next iconic global snack brand.
