Managing multiple artwork workstreams and competing priorities across a busy EMEA portfolio.
Troubleshooting artwork, proofing, print and supplier issues to minimise risk and keep launches on track.
Supporting packaging-related projects around compliance, sustainability and continuous improvement.
Helping improve processes, systems and ways of working across the artwork function.
Supporting and developing junior team members where required.
What we're looking for: Experience in packaging artwork, print management and FMCG project delivery.
Strong technical knowledge of packaging artwork, print production, proofing, colour management and die-lines .
Experience managing artwork projects independently from brief through to final print.
Comfortable working with printers, packaging suppliers, agencies and cross-functional internal teams.
Someone highly organised who can juggle multiple projects, deadlines and priorities.
A natural problem solver who can make decisions, manage risk and keep projects moving forward.
Experience within FMCG, packaging or another fast-paced consumer environment would be highly beneficial.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join one of the world's most recognisable and exciting brands, working across a diverse EMEA portfolio and getting involved in a huge variety of packaging and innovation projects.
