About us
Were albelli-Photobox Group, the experts in printing high-quality personalised photo products, from photo books and wall decor, to calendars, cards and more.
We create JOY by connecting people to the moments that matter most. Inspiring people to create and share their stories with us. Were searching for fresh thinkers and team players who are passionate about their work, collaborate to solve problems, constantly challenge themselves to learn and innovate, and thrive on delivering an exceptional customer experience.

The impact you’ll make

The ideal candidate has a solid sense of graphic design principles, can navigate (nearly) all of the Adobe Creative Suite with your eyes closed, a love of creativity and an eye for detail. In addition, the ideal candidate has experience with managing teams of graphic designers in a studio setting.
Youll be joining a multi-discipline, multi-lingual (well, some of us anyway), international creative team. We have diverse backgrounds with a team of copywriters and designers - but we all share a common passion in advocating for our customers, delivering the best solutions and never saying the words, "it’s impossible”.
