The role

Norton is looking for an experienced Packaging & Graphic Designer to manage, review, and refine packaging designs for motorcycle parts, accessories, merchandise, and related products.

Working closely with Alternative Revenue and Ownership Experience (Aftersales), this is a brand guardian position that requires strong organisational skills, a sharp eye for detail, and the ability to manage a high volume of packaging approvals across multiple suppliers.

• Manage multiple concurrent packaging projects with accuracy and speed.
• Maintain asset libraries, packaging guidelines, and design documentation for internal and supplier reference.
• Liaise with internal teams across product, marketing, and aftersales to ensure cohesive execution of brand visuals.
• Manage workload and ensure timely delivery of all projects, meeting all sign-off points and flagging up any potential risks or delays

Personal Specification

• 5+ years’ experience in packaging design, preferably in consumer goods, automotive, or lifestyle brands.
• Proven experience in packaging design.
• Expert-level skills in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign).
• Strong knowledge of packaging production processes, dielines, and print specifications.
• Exceptional attention to detail and ability to spot inconsistencies quickly.
• Highly organised with strong project management skills to handle large volumes of design approvals.
