We're looking for a talented and experienced Designer and Motion Graphics Artist with a strong eye for packaging design, digital brand storytelling, and visual merchandising.

You’ll work across a portfolio of leading skincare brands, creating visually impactful packaging, social media content, website visuals, and in-store displays that bring our brands to life — both online and in-store.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop packaging concepts, layouts, and final artwork for print production.
• Create digital marketing content — including reels, stories, product videos, and campaign graphics.
• Manage and design social media videos & posts, ensuring cohesive brand identity and messaging.
• Design website assets such as banners, product visuals, and landing page layouts.
• Design visual merchandising materials — retail displays, shelf talkers, posters, and point-of-sale elements.
• Collaborate with marketing and product teams to maintain brand consistency across all touchpoints.
• Prepare production-ready files for printers, manufacturers, and suppliers.
• Support packaging development from concept to production, including material choices and finishing.
• Assist with procurement coordination, supplier follow-ups, and sample approvals.

Requirements

• Minimum 4 years’ agency experience in graphic design.
• Strong portfolio showcasing packaging, digital, and visual merchandising work.
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, After Effects or Premiere).
• Strong understanding of colour, typography, layout, and brand systems.
• Experience in beauty or lifestyle brands will be a strong advantage.
• Familiarity with social media management tools and basic web content design is a plus.
• Experience with video creation & AI tools such as Veo 3, Runway, Sora, Midjourney, and HeyGen.

The Ideal Candidate

• You’re a creative thinker with a balance of design flair and commercial understanding.
• You’re detail-oriented, proactive, and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
• Most importantly, you’re passionate about building brands that look beautiful and perform exceptionally — from shelf to screen.
