• Crop and prepare PDP imagery for fresh.com and e-retail sites according to platform specifications and protocols
• Partner with Global Design on templates, guidelines, visual systems, and other ad hoc project.
• Present creative concepts and clearly articulate the thinking behind design decisions.
• Collaborate with Creative, Marketing, Digital, Social, and external creative partners to bring work to life
• Stay current on design, digital, social, cultural, and emerging technology trends and explore new tools, including AI, to push the work forward
• Manage multiple projects and deadlines while maintaining a high standard of craft and attention to detail
• Oversee junior designers and freelancers to make sure all work levels up to creative expectations and brand consistency

The Ideal Candidate

• 5-7+ years of professional design experience, ideally in beauty, fashion, lifestyle, luxury, retail, or another consumer-focused industry.
• Bachelor’s degree in graphic design or related area
• Exceptional written and visual communication skills with an impeccable eye for detail
• Strong conceptual thinking and the ability to develop an idea, not just execute one.
• Excellent typography, layout, composition, art direction, and visual storytelling skills.
• Strong understanding of social-first design and digital experiences across web, e-commerce, email, and paid and organic social.
• Ability to work independently, make creative decisions, and confidently present and defend ideas while remaining collaborative.
• Curious, proactive, highly organized, and willing to challenge the expected and explore new creative solutions.
• Strong attention to detail and a high standard of design craft.
• Comfortable working collaboratively in a fast-paced, ever-evolving environment
• Hands-on experience designing packaging, PR mailers or gifting experiences is a major plus
