What does a DI Artist (Print & Key Visuals) do at WPP Production?
We are looking for a talented DI Artist with a passion for beauty and premium brand aesthetics to join our post production team. In this role, you will deliver world-class colour retouching and digital finishing across high-end beauty and personal care campaigns, working at the intersection of technical expertise and artistic sensibility to realise a cohesive and elevated final image.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the colour and DI process across a range of projects including hero key visuals, print campaigns, digital assets, and global adaptations, with a strong focus on high-end beauty content
Retouch and finish beauty-specific stills material to the highest standard — with particular attention to skin tone rendering, complexion consistency, product colour accuracy, and overall brand look and feel
Collaborate closely with photographers, art directors, and agency partners during client-attended sessions, translating creative vision into a technically precise and aesthetically refined result
Manage conform and finishing workflows, ensuring all elements are correctly assembled and delivered to print and digital specifications
Perform quality control across all deliverables, applying a thorough knowledge of large-format print standards, CMYK colour profiles, and global delivery requirements
Work alongside retouching, compositing, and production teams to ensure a seamless handoff and consistent visual language throughout post production
Manage multiple projects simultaneously, providing accurate time estimates and communicating clearly with producers on workload and delivery timelines
Stay current with evolving colour science, retouching tools, and beauty advertising trends — bringing new techniques and perspectives to the team

Requirements

Minimum 4–5 years of professional experience in an advertising agency, production house, or high-end retouching studio, with FMCG or beauty and personal care work strongly preferred
A portfolio that demonstrates both complex, high-end compositing — including the creation of master key visuals — and flawless technical adaptation work such as product swaps, label extensions, and language localisation
Proven experience working with regional or global brand guidelines, including the ability to unpack, modify, and preserve the integrity of a master toolkit across multiple markets
Expert-level proficiency in Adobe Photoshop and Capture One; knowledge of additional colour and retouching platforms is advantageous
Deep understanding of colour science, colour profiles, resolutions, and formatting requirements across large-format print (CMYK) and digital channels
Exceptional eye for skin tone, light, and colour — with a clear understanding of the visual language and quality bar expected by premium beauty brands
Hyper-attention to detail and a pixel-perfect mentality — proactively flagging issues, offering solutions, and making creative suggestions even when the brief appears straightforward
A craftsman's mindset: the creative ability to build a master image from scratch, balanced with the patience and humility to execute repetitive pack-shot label exchanges without losing focus or quality
Ego-free and adaptable — equally comfortable leading on high-end creative work and executing localisation and versioning tasks with the same level of care and precision
