About the Role
Bring world-class creative ideas into the real world. Working as an integral part of the Brand & Activation team, you'll partner closely with designers from the earliest stages of a project, helping transform creative concepts into beautifully crafted physical products and experiences. From packaging and branded merchandise to retail displays, point of sale and campaign activations, you'll own the journey from concept through to global production, ensuring every physical touchpoint reflects the quality, personality and attention to detail the brand is known for.
This is a rare opportunity to sit at the intersection of creativity, product development and production, playing a pivotal role in how one of the world's most recognisable brands comes to life.
The Role:
You'll work alongside the creative team from day one, helping shape ideas as they're developed rather than simply delivering them once they're finished. Your role is to challenge, refine and guide concepts through development, balancing creative ambition with manufacturing expertise, commercial thinking and exceptional execution. You'll lead branded product development across packaging, retail displays, POS, branded merchandise and activation assets, managing everything from supplier relationships and sampling through to production, quality and global delivery. You'll become the person who gives designers the confidence that their ideas can be realised without compromise.
What Success Looks Like:
You'll become a trusted partner to the creative team, involved from the earliest conversations through to final delivery. Designers will rely on your expertise to solve problems before they arise. Suppliers will trust your judgement and clarity. Stakeholders across the business will know that when a project is in your hands, it will be delivered beautifully, on time and to the highest possible standard. Ultimately, your success is measured by how seamlessly creative ideas become exceptional physical experiences.
Experience
Significant experience leading branded product development and production within premium consumer products, retail, lifestyle or brand-led environments. Strong understanding of packaging, POS, retail displays, branded merchandise and physical marketing assets. Experience managing global suppliers and manufacturing partners.
About you
You understand manufacturing and supply chains, but just as importantly, you understand designers. You know how to protect an idea while making it manufacturable, commercially viable and deliverable at scale. You bring excellent commercial judgement, project leadership skills and a strong appreciation for materials, craftsmanship and product quality. You are able to build trusted relationships across creative, production and operational teams.
Qualifications
No specific qualifications are stated, but a background in product development, production management or a related field is implied.
