Job Description

Middleweight Creative Artworker - 10 Month Fixed Term Contract (Maternity Cover)

Are you an experienced, unflappable and detail-obsessed Creative Artworker? (You know who you are.)

We're looking for a talented Middleweight Creative Artworker to join Red Central on a 10 month maternity cover contract. If you love popular culture, thrive on precision, and relish the opportunity to work with some of the world's biggest entertainment brands, we'd love to hear from you.

You're the kind of person who spots the 0.1mm shift, the rogue font, or the colour profile that's about to cause chaos before anyone else does. You take pride in producing technically flawless artwork and ensuring every file is ready for production.

Overview

Start Date: Immediate

Contract: 10 month fixed term maternity cover

Salary: Competitive, matched to experience

Location: Bath (beautiful studio between Bath and Bristol with free parking)

Working Culture: Hybrid (2-3 days working from home each week)

The Role

You'll be part of a three-strong Creative Artworking team, supporting our wider creative department and bringing designs to life across a broad range of outputs.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Preparing and adapting artwork for production across print and digital applications
• Pre-production file work, image retouching and asset preparation
• Packaging artwork and amendments
• Layout and production of style guides, look books and presentations
• Advertising and retail POS artwork
• Creating product and packaging mock-ups
• Managing versioning, localisation and artwork updates where required
• Ensuring all artwork is accurate, compliant and delivered to specification

You'll be confident interpreting brand guidelines, licensing style guides, retailer specifications and legal requirements, ensuring every asset is consistent, technically correct and production-ready.

A key part of the role will involve collating, checking and preparing complex design files for real-world application, including print production and reproduction onto garments and consumer products. Working closely with client guidelines, you'll ensure work leaves the studio accurately prepared and ready for manufacture or publication.

About You

• Significant experience working as a Creative Artworker in a studio or agency environment
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, particularly Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign
• Strong understanding of print production processes and artwork best practice
• Comfortable working in PowerPoint and Keynote
• Exceptional attention to detail and file management skills
• Able to manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously
• Calm, organised and solutions-focused under pressure
• Experience working with licensed brands, packaging or consumer products would be advantageous
