Job Description

As a senior brand & packaging designer based out of our Shanghai studio, you’ll be at the heart of our innovative Design team. We're looking for a passionate and enthusiastic addition to the team, someone who is a bold thinker who will help bring our creative visions to life.

Please note: our recruitment software does not recognise @qq.com email addresses, so please apply with an email from an alternate host.

WHO YOU ARE

You’re a calm, confident creative with a strong voice, a steady presence and a deep commitment to quality. You lead by doing, bringing both clarity and flair to your work, and inspiring others to raise their game. You’re trusted to drive design thinking across multiple briefs, balancing big ideas with fine-tuned detail. You hold yourself to high standards and help others do the same: creating work that’s insightful, strategic and beautifully made.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Creative thinking & crafting excellence You shape creative work from concept to craft, elevating the quality through your own ideas and by raising the standard across the team. You hold space for originality, polish and bravery, and deliver work that is both strategically smart and visually powerful. You apply AI tools with purpose and precision, enhancing storytelling, efficiency and design ambition.

Strategic & brand alignment You hold the brief with confidence, translating it into compelling design while questioning and challenging where needed. You connect dots across projects, ensuring brand truth and creative opportunity stay aligned. You design with intent, not just instinct.

Studio process & project delivery
You manage multiple workstreams with care and clarity. You keep timelines on track, own your output, and create structures that help the team deliver better. You’re a steadying influence who flags risks early and keeps quality moving at pace.

Team collaboration & contribution You contribute to a creative culture where people feel seen, supported and inspired. You give feedback that builds clarity and confidence, and you’re present in critiques, rituals and reviews. You lift the work, and the people who make it.

Commercial acumen You understand how to manage your time and creative ambition within the scope of the project. You protect the integrity of the work by staying aware of budgets, timelines and value. You contribute to resourcing conversations and help manage external contributors with efficiency and care.

EXPERIENCE

You’ll probably have around 5-7 years’ experience in a brand and packaging agency environment with a portfolio that shows how you bring strong brand thinking to packaging and brand worlds, with exposure to and a love for beauty and personal care.

LOCATION AND FLEXIBILITY

This role is based out of our Shanghai studio and is a full-time role (40 hours). We work to a hybrid model of three days in the studio.

WHY WORK WITH US?

What makes JDO special is how we work together. We value conviction without ego, generosity without fuss and craft that holds up in the detail. You’ll be encouraged to bring your point of view, ask better questions, learn from talented people around you and keep developing your voice.

Our promise to you is a career that matters: one where your talent is recognised, your growth is supported and your individuality is celebrated. We want people to do brilliant work, but not by becoming someone they are not. We’re proud to have been named Creativepool’s Best Agency to Work For in both 2024 and 2025. That recognition matters to us because it reflects the kind of place we are building with high standards, real collaboration and a team that shows up for each other.

Alongside a competitive salary, we offer benefits that support rest, wellbeing, creativity and life outside work, including Fri-yays, where our studios close on the last Friday of most months, a day off on your birthday, and company trips.

SOUNDS LIKE A FIT? LETS TALK.

If you are a trusted design lead, creative, strategic and composed, someone who elevates the work and those around you, we'd love to hear from you.

Please note: Regretfully, we can't always respond to every applicant, but we do try. No recruiters please.
