About the Role
The Senior Designer, US plays a leading role in shaping how Blue Bottle comes to life across the US market. This is a multidisciplinary design role for someone who thinks in ideas and systems rather than a single medium, translating creative ideas across channels while maintaining a cohesive Blue Bottle point of view.
Responsibilities
- Lead design from concept through execution across digital, print, merchandise, and physical brand experiences, creating cohesive ideas that translate thoughtfully across mediums
- Develop visual concepts and systems for integrated campaigns, product launches, seasonal initiatives, and other key US brand moments
- Design packaging, merchandise, and branded products with an understanding of how individual expressions contribute to a larger brand system
- Create digital experiences and assets across eCommerce, email, social media, paid media, and other evolving digital channels
- Design physical and printed brand expressions including cafe signage, menus, environmental graphics, marketing collateral, wayfinding, and consumer-packaged goods
- Translate creative concepts across scale and context—from a social asset or email to a package, café window, product, or physical activation—without losing the strength of the original idea
- Prototype ideas through 2D and 3D mockups to explore, communicate, and refine concepts before production
- Partner with Marketing, Product, Cafe, Digital, and other cross-functional teams to understand business needs and turn them into strong creative solutions
- Present creative concepts and design rationale clearly and persuasively to cross-functional partners and senior stakeholders
- Lead projects through iteration, production, and final execution, maintaining a high level of craft and attention to detail throughout
- Guide and provide feedback to full-time and freelance designers, helping establish clear creative direction while supporting their development
- Partner with vendors and production partners to explore materials, fabrication techniques, printing, packaging, and other methods of bringing ideas to life
- Contribute to the continued evolution of Blue Bottle’s brand standards, visual systems, and design guidelines
- Stay curious about culture, design, technology, materials, and emerging creative mediums, bringing new ideas and approaches into the work
Requirements
- 8+ years of professional design experience within an agency, in-house creative team, studio, or similarly multidisciplinary environment
- A portfolio demonstrating exceptional conceptual thinking and versatility across multiple mediums, including digital, print, packaging, product, and/or physical brand experiences
- Experience leading integrated projects or campaigns from initial concept through production and execution across multiple channels
- Experience leading, mentoring, or directly managing designers and creative collaborators
- Strong experience in print and packaging design, including preparing press-ready files and overseeing production and press checks
- Strong understanding of digital design across eCommerce, email, social media, and other digital platforms
- Experience designing within established brand systems while knowing when and how to thoughtfully evolve them
- Fluency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign), Figma, and Google Workspace
