Jobbeschreibung

International Brands is a fast-growing Swiss company in the Personal Care / FMCG space. With our brands, we bring products into tens of thousands of retail locations worldwide, from drugstores and leading retail chains to e-commerce.

We build brands that work on shelf.

Fast. Visible. Tangible. Scalable.

We develop and scale brands that combine design, product and performance without compromise and win exactly where it matters most: in the market.

More than 90,000 retail locations worldwide.

And we are nowhere near our limit.

We are looking for an Art Director (100%).

We are looking for the creative mind behind our entire brand powerhouse.

Someone with a deep understanding of FMCG design. Someone who knows what stops consumers at shelf, captures attention and drives sales.

Someone who takes ownership. From packaging and brand worlds to the smallest details that ultimately make the difference.

Someone who challenges existing ideas, wants to improve things and does not accept "the way it has always been done."

This role is demanding, fast-paced and highly hands-on.

We are not looking for an administrator.

We are looking for a builder.

Someone who takes ownership, moves fast and executes with high quality.

Someone who wants to actively shape and grow brands. Not only conceptually, but all the way through to finished products in the market.

You own everything that moves our brands visually and creatively forward with a clear focus on FMCG performance in the market.

• Develop and execute creative concepts across all brands with a focus on visibility, recognition and impact
• Build, sharpen and continuously evolve strong brand worlds with a consistent visual identity
• Challenge existing approaches and actively improve things instead of simply maintaining them
• Design packaging with clear FMCG logic: attention-grabbing, brand-right and built to convert at shelf
• Develop web, social and marketing assets focused on performance, not aesthetics alone
• Turn ideas into reality quickly, pragmatically and efficiently without getting stuck in endless feedback loops
• Actively leverage AI and modern tools to improve workflows, speed and creative output
• Lead projects independently from idea to finished product in market
• Manage freelancers and external partners with a high quality standard
• Work closely with the Head of Brands and the broader team
• Think beyond design with a holistic perspective from products and communication to the physical environment

Turn design into products that sell. Turn creativity into performance.

Qualifikation

• 2–5+ years of experience in a creative role (Design, Art Direction or similar)
• Strong portfolio with real FMCG or retail work and proven execution
• Very strong Figma skills with experience in UI and web
• Experience across packaging, social media, web and print
• Deep understanding of FMCG design, retail and consumer behavior
• You challenge things and constantly look for ways to improve them
• You do not only think about aesthetics, but about impact, performance and results
• You are independent, hands-on, fast and solution-oriented
• You take initiative and actively drive projects forward
• You take ownership instead of waiting for instructions
• You use AI as a practical tool in your daily creative workflow

What does not fit this role:

Purely aesthetic thinking without understanding market dynamics, consumers and commercial impact

Creative profiles without genuine interest in FMCG, retail and market-driven design

Very rigid or overly process-driven ways of working

People who wait for instructions instead of taking ownership

People who love concepts but struggle with execution and speed

Direct collaboration with the Head of Brands

Real impact on brands, products and their success in market

Fast decisions instead of endless alignment rounds

High ownership and the opportunity to truly build and shape things

If you want to build something meaningful, this is the place.

You will not simply design.

You will build brands.

You will develop products that get noticed.

Products that stop consumers at shelf.

Products that win.

Products that people buy.

If you are someone who wants to create things that are not just beautiful, but successful, we should talk.
