The Role We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Retoucher to join our creative production team in India. This role is ideal for someone with strong experience in commercial, advertising, beauty, fashion, lifestyle, and people-focused imagery, who has worked on campaigns for leading brands and understands the quality standards expected on global creative work. You will be responsible for taking professionally shot imagery and elevating it to a global campaign-ready standard, working closely with art directors, photographers, designers, producers, and creative teams across APAC and international markets. The ideal candidate has exceptional technical skills, a strong eye for detail, and the ability to understand the creative intent behind an image—not simply execute a brief. What You'll Do Retouch and finish high-end imagery for global and APAC advertising campaigns, digital campaigns, social, e-commerce, and other brand communications. Work extensively on people, beauty, fashion, lifestyle, and product imagery. Perform advanced skin, hair, beauty, body, wardrobe, and environmental retouching while maintaining a natural and premium finish. Ensure imagery meets the highest global commercial and brand-quality standards. Interpret creative direction and translate visual references and art direction into polished final imagery. Work with complex images requiring compositing, masking, colour correction, clean-up, background work, and image manipulation. Collaborate with photographers, art directors, designers, producers, and global creative teams. Manage multiple images and deliverables while maintaining consistency across an entire campaign. Work within established brand guidelines while also demonstrating creative judgment where required. Handle detailed feedback and revisions efficiently and accurately. Maintain strong file hygiene, layer structure, naming conventions, colour profiles, and production standards. Identify potential quality issues before final delivery and proactively suggest solutions. Support the team on technically challenging or high-priority global projects when required.
