What you’ll be doing

• Packaging project experience would be the dream, but equally, we’d love to hear from you if you bring branding or artwork experience.
• You’ll have a genuine love for the brand, be able to talk credibly and articulately around these passions and a positive team player attitude.
• The office is based on the outskirts of Bath, this is a hybrid role but you will need access to a car.
• In-depth knowledge of MS 365 including Teams and project management tools.

You can expect a salary of up to £45k and benefits including hybrid working, and possibly condensed hours, different/flexible working patterns
