We're IF – creators of award-winning, design-led gifts and stationery for book lovers, sold exclusively to retailers worldwide. For over 25 years, we've turned everyday reading into something special with inventive book lights, clever bookmarks, stylish notebooks and reading-themed accessories. Beautifully packaged, retail-ready, and always a little unexpected – that's IF.
The Role in a Nutshell
We've got the ideas – now we need you to make them shine. As our Creative Artworker, you'll take our quirky, book-loving concepts and turn them into perfectly polished, print-ready creations. One day it might be a UFO book light package, the next a dragon-themed stationery display, a social media visual, or an exhibition stand graphic. If you thrive on tidy files and pixel-perfect precision, we'd love to hear from you.
Key Responsibilities:
* Preparing and perfecting artwork for print and digital formats – packaging, POS displays, catalogues, marketing visuals, social media assets and exhibition graphics.
* Ensuring all artwork meets technical specifications for manufacturers and printers, including bleeds, dielines, and correct file setups.
* Translating creative design drafts into flawless, f-ready files.
* Managing file versions, keeping assets tidy, well-labelled, and easy to find.
* Working with the sales team to create polished visuals and layouts for customer presentations.
* Collaborating closely with the design team to ensure everything stays on brand.
* Supporting the production team with ad-hoc tasks such as designing and printing product labels or stickers.
What We're Looking For:
* Experience in a similar creative/artworking role, ideally with printed goods, packaging, retail, or at a creative product studio.
* Strong fluency in Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop.
* Solid understanding of print production processes and technical artwork requirements.
* A laser-sharp eye for detail and layout, every pixel matters.
* Great time-management skills so you can juggle multiple projects and meet deadlines.
* Able to work full-time in an office based role in Pickering, North Yorkshire.
