Head of Design New London

We're Beauty Pie. We're the world's first luxury beauty and wellness buyers' club. And we're disrupting the beauty industry, one face cream at a time.

Before we arrived on the scene, if you wanted really great beauty products, you had to shop at traditional beauty retail - and overpay for all the crazy markups. Now, our members have access to shop from the best-quality beauty and wellness products (from the leading labs in France, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Japan, Korea, etc) and get a bigger piece of the Beauty Pie.

Beauty Pie is looking for a Head of Design to join the brand's creative studio as they embark on a new chapter which sees the elevation and refinement of the brand's visual language across all touchpoints. They will be responsible for maintaining a comprehensive understanding of company strategy, customer needs, and brand goals, whilst spearheading an evolution of the brand's design aesthetic. The ideal candidate is a highly creative, positive, and detail oriented leader with exceptional design, typography and branding skills. They'll be eager to take on challenges, introduce fresh ideas, and implement new approaches and concepts that are still on brand.

• Working with internal teams such as PR and Influencer Marketing to support on delivering marketing assets for both physical and digital events

• Prior experience in people management, with proven ability to build, mentor, and motivate teams
• Exceptional 360 design and concept thinking, demonstrating craft and meticulous attention to detail, must also be obsessed with process and material
