Apply for this role

In this category small details carry a lot: the weight of a closure, the radius where the bottle meets the cap, how the frosting reads in the hand.

You will design bottles, closures and packaging for retail products, working with the tooling and fill-line constraints from the start.

What you will own

  • Bottle and closure form, through to the frosting and finish specification
  • Packaging structure, and how it works with the product and the graphics
  • Drop-test performance and shelf presence considered as part of the design
  • Staying with the design through tooling and first-shot trials

What we need

  • Three to eight years in product or packaging design for retail goods
  • Bottle, closure or rigid packaging work that reached production
  • Understanding of blow moulding and injection moulding constraints
  • Comfort working to a landed-cost target

What helps

  • Personal care, wellness or home fragrance categories
  • Structural packaging and dieline work
  • Experience of working around fill-line constraints

Being straight with you

A lot of this work is iterative. You may be on the fifth revision of a closure profile because the earlier ones will not eject cleanly.
