If you enjoy translating campaign concepts and key visuals into different formats, have a good eye for typography, layout, and color, and want to develop further in a dynamic, hands-on team, then this role is perfect for you. As a Retail Graphic Designer (all genders), you will support our design team in creating creatives across various channels and touchpoints.

This is us!

Maniko is an innovative, fast-growing company in the nail polish industry, offering high-quality products for discerning customers across Europe. We are known for our revolutionary, self-adhesive nail polish technology, which allows our customers to achieve professional results conveniently from home.

Our products are available nationally at dm, dm Austria, Rossmann, and budni – with further renowned retail partners in the pipeline. This is no longer a startup setup: multiple co-packing partners, six-figure order volumes per campaign, and a supply chain that cannot tolerate any failure during peak business.

Our secret? A passionate team that is not content with the status quo and constantly strives to improve. We believe in values that are truly lived – no empty phrases. With us, it means:

• Facts over Ego: Data and results come before everything else – what counts is what's best for the team and the company, not personal ego.

• Challenge accepted: We see every challenge as an opportunity for growth.

• Power to the people: Trust and responsibility go hand in hand with us – your impact matters!

• Who if not you?: If you don't roll up your sleeves and get things done – who will?

Your role with us:

As our new Retail Graphic Designer (all genders), you will independently take ownership of developing creatives across digital channels, social media, CRM, e-commerce, retail, and print from day one – including packaging and displays. You will independently create and check print data and have a keen sense for claim placement and consumer psychology. This way, you will ensure that our brand appears consistently and visually compelling across all formats – in close collaboration with our Art Directors, Brand, Social Media, and Marketing teams.

Your tasks are:

• You will support the design team in developing creatives for digital channels, social media, CRM, e-commerce, retail, and print.

• You will research visual trends and contribute fresh ideas to campaigns and content.

What you bring:

• Experience: At least 2 years of practical experience in graphic or communication design.

• Print Data Experience (absolute must): You independently and routinely create and check production-ready print data for packaging and displays – without this experience, the role unfortunately won't be a fit.

• Portfolio: A strong portfolio demonstrating a good eye for typography, layout, color, and composition.

• Tool Skills: Good working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite, especially Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.

• Design Fundamentals: Understanding of basic print and digital design requirements.
