Join Our Team

If you have a collaborative mindset and a love of package design, we want to hear from you.

Calling all creatives and packaging gurus!

If you'd enjoy a dynamic entrepreneurial culture combining the stability and resources of a firm with the creative vibe and collegiality of a blue-chip design agency, you should get to know us.

Studio One Eleven is the design and innovation division of Berlin Packaging, the premier packaging supplier. We grow our clients' businesses through impactful packaging and product innovations, from marketing strategy and napkin sketches to the sourcing and supply of the components themselves.  

 

We are always on the hunt for new talent. 

We are interested in meeting designers with fast-moving consumer goods and/or rigid packaging design experience to support our growing practice in downtown Chicago.

Ever on the upswing, we've moved four times in the last ten years just to keep up with our team's growth. Our workspace is filled with the food, music, tools, and toys that make it feel as much like a tech startup as the productive, design juggernaut that it is.

 

We are firm believers in hiring and retaining the best people.

Berlin Packaging provides a superior compensation package including excellent benefits. From a 401(k) plan with a company match to great health, dental, and life insurance (and much more!) – we take care of our team members. Oh, and coffee – lots and lots of really great coffee!


We're looking for all types.

The ideal candidates will excel in all phases of the design process and enjoy floating between them with dexterity and enthusiasm. Our people are sharp, well-spoken, and confident (but never cocky). In a given week, a designer on our team might lead a kick-off meeting with an automotive client, climb into a mini-van for an ethnography study of kids' personal care products, prepare a category analysis of the premium spirits category, or pull a next-gen pharmaceutical packaging prototype from one of our prototype machines.

  • Industrial Designers: We want big-idea-generating ID'ers with a sensitivity to brands, a burning desire to create impactful experiences, and ninja-like sketching and visualization prowess. If you watch un-crating videos on YouTube, we should talk.

  • Engineers:  Seeking super-skilled engineers who are sensitive to design with expertise in packaging materials and processes. Our engineers enjoy putting manufacturers on their heels and pushing the envelope of what's possible.

  • Branding Designers: Your significant other might not understand why it takes you 30 minutes to buy a bottle of shampoo at Ulta, but we do. A strong sense of typography, color, and methodical approach are a given; your passion for branding sets you apart.

  • Production Artists: We'd like to expand our kerning police force – the kind of people that know the Pantone color of their t-shirt and still remember Rubylith. Typos fear them; we love them.
