At Hotel Chocolat, packaging is more than just wrapping – it’s at the heart of our mission to make people and nature happy through the reinvention of chocolate. Our packaging tells the story of who we are: farmers with dirt under our nails, pioneering sustainable cacao farming, and a premium, witty, bold chocolate brand.

You’ll bring ideas to life from the first sketch to finished product, working closely with our development team and under the guidance of our Senior Manager.

* Bring the global brand strategy to life through innovative, impactful, and commercially minded packaging ideas.
* Generate and articulate clear concepts.
* Collaborate with internal and external partners throughout the packaging development process.
* Help dream up designs that are unexpected, charming, and full of personality.
What We’re Looking For:
* Outstanding portfolio of packaging work.
* Experience in packaging design and branding for luxury brands or retailers (in-house or agency).
* Packaging range rollout and range architecture experience.
* Ability to work independently and collaboratively, managing multiple projects.
* Fluent in Adobe Creative Suite CC (Illustrator and Photoshop essential).
* Strong understanding of materials, print finishes, surface graphics, and packaging print techniques.
* Knowledge of InDesign and Dimensions.
