Graphic Designer | Global Apple Brands
Design work seen by millions. Brands recognised around the world.
If you're a designer who thrives on bringing global brands to life through brilliant execution, this could be one of the most rewarding contract opportunities you'll find this year.
We're looking for an experienced Graphic Designer to join our Global Marketing team on a parental leave contract from August 2026 through to April 2027. You'll be the creative engine behind three of the world's most recognised premium apple brands – Envy™, Jazz™ and Joli™ – helping deliver high-quality design work that reaches consumers across Asia, Europe, North America and beyond.
This isn't a concept development role. The strategic and creative direction already exists. Instead, you'll be trusted to take established global brand assets and execute them flawlessly across packaging, retail, digital, social, e-commerce and shopper marketing channels.
If you love variety, enjoy managing multiple projects at pace, and take pride in producing exceptional work with consistency and attention to detail, we'd love to hear from you.
What's in it for you?
Work on genuinely global brands
Your work won't sit in a local market. You'll create and adapt assets used across multiple countries, cultures and channels, helping shape how consumers experience some of the world's leading premium apple brands.
Variety every single day
One day you could be updating packaging artwork across dozens of formats. The next, you'll be creating retail activation materials for Chinese New Year campaigns, developing e-commerce assets, supporting global presentations, or producing point-of-sale materials for international markets.
Join at an exciting time
Our brands continue to evolve and grow globally, creating a steady stream of new projects, packaging developments, market activations and campaign rollouts.
Work with a passionate global team
You'll collaborate directly with brand managers, marketers and agency partners around the world, becoming a trusted design partner to teams across multiple regions.
Flexibility and autonomy
This is a global role, so we value outcomes over rigid schedules. You'll have flexibility in how you manage your workload while supporting colleagues across different time zones.
A genuine handover
You'll start mid - August, allowing time to work alongside the current designer before they commence parental leave. You'll be set up for success with a structured handover and support from the wider marketing team.
About the role
Reporting into our Global Head of Marketing, you'll own the day-to-day design execution across our global apple brands.
This is a high-volume, fast-paced role where organisation, prioritisation and quality are equally important. You'll manage a diverse pipeline of work through Jira, balancing multiple stakeholder requests while ensuring every asset remains aligned to our global brand standards.
Your work will include:
Packaging updates and artwork management across a wide range of packaging formats
Point-of-sale and in-store activation materials
Retailer and shopper marketing assets
Digital, social and e-commerce creative
Market adaptations of global campaigns
Sales presentations and internal communications
Brand asset management and key visual rollouts
Supporting major seasonal and cultural campaigns, including Chinese New Year and Mid-Autumn Festival activations
What you'll bring
You'll be an experienced designer who combines strong creative execution with exceptional organisation.
You'll likely have:
5+ years' graphic design experience within FMCG, retail, agency or brand-led environments
Advanced Adobe Creative Suite skills, particularly InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop
Experience producing work across print, packaging and digital channels
A strong eye for layout, typography and visual consistency
The ability to manage multiple deadlines and stakeholder requests simultaneously
Experience working from established brand guidelines and creative frameworks
Confidence collaborating with teams across different markets and cultures
Basic video editing skills & AI assisted creative workflow experience
