Junior Designer

About the Role

We are looking for a meticulous designer who can hit the ground running, with a primary focus on creating packaging design solutions for our clients. This includes developing creative concepts, producing digital mock-ups, and preparing print-ready artwork for packaging deliverables. In addition to packaging, your role will also support Minifiglabs in creating digital mock-ups, preparing final artwork for printing, and creating custom sets using LEGO bricks. Examples of things we design are custom sets/minifigs/wall murals made with LEGO elements, building instructions, box packaging, 3D models with textures etc. We also expect someone with an openness to learn new pipelines, and who can work in a highly collaborative and team-oriented environment.

At Minifiglabs, we operate in a casual office environment but are very serious about producing high-quality work with unparalleled results. As part of a growing team where our individual job titles mean little and quality of work means everything, you will be held accountable to a high standard and expected to pitch in where needed across the board.

What A Day Looks Like @ Minifiglabs:

• Understand the design requirements of a project
• Propose/conceptualise ideas with digital mock ups (Adobe Photoshop + 3D software)
• Convert the mock ups into printable artwork (Adobe Illustrator)
• Design building instructions for sets
• Create designs for various formats of packaging
• Occasionally communicate with specific vendors regarding your artwork
• Design custom LEGO sets based on project requirements (training provided)
• We do our best to avoid OT-ing unless necessary. When OT is required, it is accounted for and compensated with time-off

You Will Love This Job If:

• You're a team player
• You like LEGO products
• You are a hands-on person and like to see your creations not just on a screen but physically in reality
• You enjoy learning new pipelines
• You are very confident using illustrator and photoshop
• You like 3D modelling (beginner proficiency is sufficient, no rigging, animating required)
• You like sketching and creating outfits for characters
• You enjoy multitasking and managing time-sensitive projects concurrently

Other Head Turning Criteria:

• Preferably 1-2 years of experience in design related roles, with a strong focus on packaging design
• A portfolio showcasing your best work relevant to packaging design
• Capable of managing multiple projects simultaneously under set deadlines
• Able to cope well under pressure
• Possess a positive attitude & are keen to learn
• Able to demonstrate resourcefulness, resilience and grit

Benefits:

• Group Personal Accident and Group Hospital and Surgical with Major Medical Benefits Insurance
• Dental Plan
