Sweet Squared is a multi-award-winning distributor of some of the most exciting, creative global brands in the professional hair and beauty industry, including CND SHELLAC and KEVIN.MURPHY. Since 2006, we've proudly served salons and pros across the UK and Ireland, always with “love & respect.” This is a rare opportunity to join a company where ideas are valued, passion for our brands and customers is contagious, and creativity is our lifeblood.
The Role
We're looking for a charismatic, visually-driven Creative Graphic Designer who brings flair, speed, and style. You'll help bring some of the industry’s best-known brands to life through standout content across print, digital, and events. This includes repurposing supplier assets and creating original content. We work in all media formats, including video and custom edits. There are opportunities to create new visual identities for events, campaigns, or promotions. No two days are the same.
You’ll thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and be a trusted member of our marketing team that loves what they do.
We embrace all design tools — and we're excited about AI's role in helping creatives explore faster, experiment more, and expand possibilities. Experience with AI design tools like Adobe Firefly, Midjourney, or ChatGPT is a plus. Curiosity and willingness to learn are equally valued.

* Develop concepts for digital and social media campaigns, websites, events, and emails
* Design brochures, eBooks, packaging, and other marketing materials
* Maintain brand guidelines across all S2 brands
* Manage multiple projects with tight deadlines
* Collaborate with marketing and sales teams to create impactful designs
* Video editing and basic motion design (Premiere/After Effects)
* Organize and manage digital assets
* Monitor live campaigns to ensure assets display correctly
What You Bring To The Table
* At least 1 year of experience in graphic design (agency or in-house)
* A diverse portfolio showcasing your skills and creativity
* Proficiency in Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator (bonus: Premiere and After Effects)
* Positive attitude — embraces challenges and solutions
* A love for good design
* Calm under pressure — composed and ready to adapt
* No formal degree required — skills and passion are what matter
What We Can Offer You
* In-depth brand training
* 25 days annual leave + 8 bank holidays (increasing with service)
* Private healthcare and cashback scheme
* Perks and discount schemes
* 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme
* Access to 24/7 GP Service
