The Opportunity

We aren’t just creating products. We’re creating moments that stop people in their tracks.

At Selkirk, every detail matters, and packaging is often the first physical interaction someone has with our brand. It’s more than a box. It’s a first impression, a storytelling canvas, and a critical part of how we bring premium products to life.

This role is ideal for someone who understands how thoughtful design can influence buying decisions, elevate a brand, and create shelf presence that immediately captures attention.

You’ll partner closely with our Creative Director and Product teams to design premium packaging experiences that balance visual impact, functionality, production realities, and consumer behavior. From concept through production, you’ll help shape how Selkirk products show up around the world.
