WHY WE THINK YOU WILL LOVE THIS ROLE
The Junior Retoucher helps transform raw visuals into standout assets for the North American Studio Team — and at times, our global partners — by enhancing print & digital assets with precision and creativity. From perfecting food and packaging to polishing color, contrast, and composition, you’ll craft images that feel crisp, cohesive, and ready for the spotlight.
With a sharp eye for detail and consistency, you’re someone who notices what others might miss. You’re highly organized, visually intuitive, and comfortable working in a fast-paced studio environment. A natural sense of design — understanding how typography, layout, composition, and color work together — helps you craft polished, compelling visuals that support our creative vision.
