Responsibilities:

  • Build precise mechanical files from approved direction; ensure alignment to dielines, bleeds, safety, and print specs across cartons, labels, inserts, and secondary packaging.
  • Creation of bottom labels and updating copy-heavy files.
  • Prepare vendor-ready art: correct color builds (CMYK/spot), overprint/knockout, trapping, white/varnish/foil plates, and separations; package all assets with linked files and fonts.
  • Design simple, commercially viable fragrance collections (graphics, line architecture, color, typography) optimized for mass retail.
  • Translate brand and creative direction into scalable SKUs, size variants, and line extensions; maintain consistency across formats and substrates.
  • Preflight and QC all files; manage revisions, feedback, and version control to minimize errors and rework.

  • Maintain asset libraries, naming conventions, dieline repositories, spec sheets, and production checklists.
  • Ensure compliance with retailer guidelines and regulatory/labeling requirements as applicable (e.g., FPLA, barcodes, claims placement).
  • Support cost-reduction through smart material/finish choices, efficient layouts, gang runs, and plate/finish consolidation.

It's a plus:

  • PowerPoint for editing decks
  • 3D rendering for bottles and packaging (glass and plastic bottles; caps in various materials such as metal, wood, and plastic). Tools could include KeyShot, Adobe Dimension, Blender, or Cinema 4D.
