Art Director, Brand

Javvy is on a mission to set a new standard for café favorites with better-for-you beverages that are craveable, convenient, and without compromise. Positioned at the intersection of café culture, convenience, and functional nutrition, we’re reimagining the drinks people buy every day — proving you don’t have to compromise between great taste and quality ingredients. What began as a cult-favorite DTC brand has rapidly scaled into an omnichannel business, now expanding into major retail while building a loyal community around better-for-you café favorites.

Javvy is looking for a highly creative, hands-on Art Director to help shape and execute the next chapter of our visual brand.

We’re looking for a designer at heart

• Partner closely with Operations, Supply Chain, Regulatory, and external production partners to ensure creative is accurate, compliant, and production-ready.

• Maintain a high standard of craft while operating effectively within fast-moving timelines.

• Lead visual development for new SKUs, flavors, formats, product categories, and brand partnerships.

• Develop packaging concepts that balance brand consistency, strong shelf presence, product communication, and consumer appeal.

• Guide packaging from initial concept through approved production artwork.

• Lead creative development across retail, DTC, Amazon, Tik Tok Shop, and other ecommerce channels.

• Oversee retail PDPs, shippers, displays, endcaps, shelf communication, signage, and other point-of-sale materials.

• Partner cross-functionally with Brand, Retail, Ecommerce, Product, Operations, and Regulatory to deliver creative against launch timelines.

• Establish visual direction for product photography, lifestyle imagery, and campaign content.

• Develop creative briefs and provide art direction for photographers and external creative partners.
