A graphic design role where your work actually makes it onto shelves.
 
Our client is a well-established, globally recognised gifting and lifestyle business, creating eye-catching products for major retailers worldwide. Design sits at the heart of everything they do — from packaging and branding through to product visuals and point-of-sale.
 
They’re now looking for a Graphic Designer to join their in-house studio in Rotherham. This role is ideal for someone who loves packaging, layout, typography and visual storytelling, and wants to see their designs progress from concept through to finished, physical products.
 
This is very much a graphic design-led role, with the opportunity to apply those skills across gifting and lifestyle products.
 
The Role
 
Working as part of a collaborative in-house creative team, you’ll be responsible for producing strong, commercially focused graphic design across multiple product ranges.
 
You’ll be involved in:
 
• Designing packaging, product graphics, artwork and visual assets
• Creating concepts, layouts and final print-ready artwork
• Producing visuals for gift products, retail packaging and POS
• Supporting product managers with clear, engaging design solutions
• Preparing artwork for print and production
• Creating presentation visuals and mock-ups for internal sign-off
• Liaising with overseas production teams to ensure designs translate accurately into finished products
 
You’ll see your work move quickly from screen to shelf — and have genuine ownership over the creative output.

Key requirements:

What’s in It for You

• Salary £28,000–£36,000 depending on experience
