Job description

Why blend in when you can stand out?

Our vision is to be the brand that redefines soft drinks, inspiring new ways of drinking. All of our drinks can be enjoyed on their own or paired with craft spirits or alternatives, in modern mixing moments. We’re proving that bold, creative and beautifully made can be the everyday choice.

The Artisan collection

The Artisan Drinks Co. collection consists of a range of mixers and functional soft drinks, crafted to make you feel good.

Our Mixer collection features 12 flavours: Classic London Tonic, Skinny London Tonic, Pink Citrus Tonic, Violet Blossom Tonic, Yuzu Tokyo Tonic, Barrel Smoked Cola, Smooth Ginger Ale, Fiery Ginger Beer, Agave Lemon, Tailor Made Lemonade, Bubbly Soda Water and Pink Grapefruit Soda.

Our Feel Good Soda range is functional soft drinks full of flavour: Spicy Ginger Soda, Pink Grapefruit Soda and Cloudy Lemon Soda, all with vitamins and electrolytes.

Our values

Four values shape everything we do: how we work, who we work with and what we create.

• Simplicity: we put the customer first, set clear goals and focus on the things that make a difference. Less is always more.
• Courage: we have the courage to do things differently, learn by doing and adapting, and give everyone a voice.
• Creativity: we challenge the status quo, always look for a better way and never blend in when we can stand out.
• Excellence: we make the best-tasting drinks, set the bar high and always strive to improve, as a proud certified B Corporation.

What makes us Artisan

• 100% natural ingredients
• No artificial colours, flavours or preservatives
• Plant-based
• Certified B Corporation
• Made in the UK at a state-of-the-art low-carbon facility
• Sold in 28+ countries

Your role at Artisan Drinks

“You haven’t got enough experience.” Sound familiar? If you’re studying graphic design or have recently graduated and you’re looking for your first break in social media, this one’s for you. Reporting to our Brand Manager, you’ll help fire up the Artisan socials, creating scroll-stopping content and graphics for our Mixers and Feel Good Soda. It’s a paid, remote internship with real projects and plenty of live work for your portfolio.

Responsibilities

Create stand-out social content

Create at least three pieces of content a week across our social channels, from static posts and carousels to Reels and TikToks. Help plan our content calendar, bring fresh ideas to the table and keep an eye on trends so Artisan always stands out in the feed.

Design across the brand

Design graphics and assets in Canva and Adobe Creative Suite, from social templates and email banners to website imagery, sales deck pages and event materials, all in line with our brand guidelines. Support the team with photo and video editing and help keep our asset library organised.

Community and partnerships

Help manage our online community, replying to comments and messages in the Artisan voice. Support outreach to creators, influencers and brand partners, and help pull together collaborations and giveaways.

Insight and reporting

Track how our content performs on each channel, pull together a simple monthly report and share what’s working, so we keep doing more of what our community loves.

Learn and grow

Work alongside our Brand Manager and the wider team on live campaigns, with regular feedback and support. You’ll get hands‑on experience of how an independent drinks brand and certified B Corporation is built.

Your experience

• Studying, or recently graduated in, graphic design or a related creative subject
• A portfolio that shows off your design skills (we’d love to see it)
• Confident with Canva and Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign)
• A passion for social media and creative content, with an eye for what’s trending
• Bonus points for video editing skills (CapCut, Premiere Pro or similar)
• Organised, proactive and happy working remotely to deadlines

What we offer

• A paid internship, 3 days a week for 3 months, starting ASAP
• Real, live projects for a certified B Corporation to add to your portfolio
