Director, Packaging Design at Sol de Janeiro

You will join a team that has helped turn Sol de Janeiro into one of the most celebrated names in beauty since its launch in 2015. Inspired by Brazilian rituals and built on clinically proven formulas and transportive fragrances, the brand now reaches consumers across the Americas, Europe, and beyond, earning recognition as a TIME100 Most Influential Company, a Fast Company World’s Most Innovative Company, and a WWD Beauty Inc Power Brand. As Director, Packaging Design, you will shape how that story looks and feels on shelves and in every physical touchpoint.

What you'll be doing

• Lead the creative development and regional adaptation of 2D and 3D packaging across every channel, translating global concepts into retail-ready solutions that perform at Sephora, Ulta, Amazon, and department stores.
• Direct the design and production of permanent and promotional packaging, merchandising units, POP displays, shelf signage, gift sets, and in-store collateral while overseeing external agencies, structural engineers, and vendors from first render to final execution.
• Collaborate with Marketing, Retail, and Global Creative teams on seasonal launches, 2D visual assets for OOH campaigns and events, and the day-to-day management of timelines, resources, and budgets that keep every project on brand and on schedule.

What you'll bring

You bring at least eight years of hands-on experience in 2D and 3D packaging and merchandising design, preferably within beauty, luxury, or lifestyle categories. Your portfolio demonstrates mastery of structural packaging, retail environments, and graphic execution, and you are fluent in the realities of materials, engineering, and print production across multiple substrates. You are highly proficient in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign) and bring working knowledge of 3D tools such as SketchUp, V-Ray, or Cinema 4D. You have partnered successfully with major U.S. retailers, led cross-functional projects from concept through shelf, and can present and defend ideas confidently to senior stakeholders. Strong project-management instincts, clear communication, and a collaborative, solution-oriented mindset complete your profile. Fluency in English is required.

What you'll get

We offer a salary range of $150,000–$180,000 USD along with a competitive bonus program. You will work in a flexible hybrid environment that balances focused work with in-person collaboration, and you will join an inclusive culture that values diverse perspectives and supports individual growth. As part of a fast-growing, award-winning global beauty brand, you will have the opportunity to shape the physical expression of a product line loved by multi-generational consumers worldwide.
