A Taste of What You’ll Do ​

As a Senior Designer in GALLO Creative, you'll shape how wine, spirits and beverage brands look and feel through identity and packaging design, and help activate those brands across marketing channels, with design shaped by how each channel works.

Your work will span innovation, renovation, line extensions and packaging systems across a wide range of brands, from everyday favorites to luxury icons, sold nationally and globally.

In this role, you'll:

• Own your projects from brief through final design, partnering with Creative leadership and brand teams along the way
• Turn consumer insights and business objectives into design that's strategically sound and beautifully made
• Help carry that work into multi-channel brand expressions
• Present your work to creative and business leaders, with clear strategic rationale behind your recommendations
• Bring a refined eye for typography, structure, materials and finishes, along with a considered point of view on what each brand needs
• Grow alongside the team, taking on bigger brand challenges as you go

Success in this role means identity and packaging work that builds a brand's equity and earns its place on shelf.
