About the Role
At Notpla, we’re at the forefront of sustainable innovation, creating natural alternatives to single-use plastic packaging engineered to help build a healthier planet. Founded on the belief that nature knows best, we are an innovative, action-oriented scale-up developing and manufacturing uncompromisingly natural packaging solutions from seaweed and plants. We are looking for a Graphic Designer who can elevate how Notpla shows up across every touchpoint. This is not a production-only role; we want someone who can think, shape and execute, bringing ideas to life across campaigns, storytelling, sales enablement and brand moments. You will work closely with the Head of Marketing and commercial teams to translate complex sustainability and materials innovation into compelling visual communication.

This is an exciting time to join Notpla as we approach a record-breaking year for revenue and are on track for major growth in the next 18–24 months.

Beyond meaningful roles and a vibrant working environment, Notpla offers competitive compensation including EMI Share Options, a zero-carbon pension scheme, discounts with local businesses, and subsidised social activities. Our office-first hybrid working policy supports productivity while maintaining a dynamic and collaborative atmosphere.

As a Graphic Designer, you will collaborate closely with a junior designer, providing creative direction and hands-on guidance to strengthen and evolve Notpla’s visual identity across channels. This is a rare opportunity to join a fast-scaling, award-winning, mission-led company and play a key role in defining its creative identity. Working within our creative-driven marketing team, you will design bold, high-impact campaign assets across digital, social and events; translate strategy into clear, memorable visual storytelling; help evolve Notpla’s brand as we scale globally; create sales materials that win business; build assets supporting distributors, partners and ingredient branding; collaborate with commercial teams to clarify complex propositions; design social-first storytelling; support product launches and innovation narratives; bring personality and humanity into the brand; support trade shows, activations and experiential moments; create standout visual presence across real-world environments; maintain and evolve visual consistency across channels; contribute to brand guidelines and creative direction; and help raise the overall creative bar at Notpla.

Experience
Proven experience in brand, communication or graphic design with a strong portfolio spanning brand, campaigns and commercial work. Ability to move between conceptual and executional design and confidence designing for both digital and physical outputs with strong typography and layout fundamentals.

About you
Creative thinker with the ability to shape and execute ideas across multiple channels. Collaborative team player who can provide guidance and support to junior designers. Passionate about sustainability and innovation with a desire to work in a fast-scaling, mission-driven company. Comfortable working autonomously and taking ownership of your domain.
