A major beauty retailer is looking for a Sr. Designer of Global Packaging who is as skilled in Industrial Design as they are in Graphic Design. This is a unique opportunity to act as a strategic creative anchor for one of the world's most iconic beauty brands.

Responsibilities:

• Drive the strategic development of primary and secondary packaging, creative mailers, bags, and seasonal collateral.
• Create innovative concepts utilizing renderings, drawings, and models to identify new physical packaging opportunities for the brand.
• Manage all departmental DTOs and packaging standards; oversee retouching and attend press/production runs to ensure flawless execution.
• Design across various consumer touchpoints, including specialized open-sell and specialty-multi environments.
• Partner with Comp Houses on presentation materials and lead status meetings with cross-functional teams in Marketing, Tech Development, and 360 Creative. 

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of beauty industry experience with a BA/BFA in Industrial Design, Packaging Design, or Graphic Design.
• You must be a conceptual thinker with a strong sensibility for shape and 3D visualization. Proficiency in SolidWorks, Rhino, or other 3D modeling programs is mandatory.
• Expert-level proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign) within a Mac environment.
• Deep knowledge of industrial processes, finishes, and materials to ensure designs are not only beautiful but manufacturable.
