Midweight Designer
At BEAUTY BAY, we're all about sharing our beauty obsession with the world. From trend-led product drops to standout campaigns, we create beauty moments our customers are obsessed with. None of it would be possible without our dynamic, inspiring, diverse and dedicated team.
Our in-house Creative team is the engine behind how our brand looks, feels and connects with customers, and it’s central to how we show up across every touchpoint. We create standout work across digital and print, supporting key commercial priorities and bringing new launches to life through strong, on-brand creative.
As a Midweight Designer, you’ll be part of a fast-paced, ideas-driven environment, working across a variety of creative outputs from product launches and campaign rollouts to packaging, digital and social. You’ll collaborate closely with the NPD, Studio, Social, Influencer, Trade and Buying teams to bring the BEAUTY BAY brand to life across static, animated and printed formats.
