• Own the artwork process from design development through to final print-ready files, ensuring excellence at every stage
• Apply strong attention to detail to elevate execution through craft, balance, and precision
• Collaborate closely with the Head of Design & Consumer Experience and the broader design team to deliver bold and distinctive outcomes
• Bring passion, curiosity, and a willingness to go the extra mile to continuously raise the bar on quality and execution
