At GlassStaff we design and sell tabletop gaming products used by players all over the world. From premium dice to accessories and packaging, everything we make is built to embody our high quality while standing out proudly on a store shelf.
GlassStaff and our brands CritStones and Heroic Feet have grown into a well-known name within the tabletop gaming scene over the past years. Our products are now sold in more than 350 stores worldwide, and we are preparing for the next stage of our journey.
Our team consists of a group of enthusiastic nerds and tabletop gamers who genuinely care about what we create. Everyone here has a passion for the products we make, and you can feel that in everything we design, build, and sell. We are not just creating products, we are creating memorable experiences for players gathering around the table.
We are looking for someone who can help us turn ideas into real products. Not just designing them, but actually getting them produced properly.
This role sits at the intersection of creativity, product development, and production. It is about turning ideas into premium real-world products that are ready for manufacturing.
Specifications:
- Estimated start date: 1st of September 2026
- Location: Boskoop, The Netherlands (Remote work possible)
- 32 - 40 hours a week
- Languages: Dutch preferred, English is a must!
What you will do
You will take product ideas and turn them into production-ready products.
That includes:
- Designing premium packaging in Adobe Illustrator (this is your main tool)
- Preparing print-ready files for manufacturers (dielines, bleed, finishes, exports)
- Creating and refining packaging layouts that feel premium and retail-ready
- Creating designs for products based on specifications supplied,
- Communicating with suppliers and manufacturers to get products produced correctly
- Managing sample rounds and fixing issues like colors, materials, and finishes
- Creating shipping cartons and box markings for logistics
- Working with external 3D designers to develop new physical products
- Reviewing prototypes and guiding them towards production quality
- Helping select and coordinate manufacturers for new products
You will work closely with the founder, who leads the creative direction. Your role is to take those ideas and make them real.
What we are looking for
You do not need to tick every box. We care more about how you think and work than a perfect CV.
What matters most:
- Strong skills in Adobe Illustrator for print and packaging work
- Understanding of print production (CMYK, Pantone, finishes, export settings)
- Ability to create clean, premium packaging designs
- Attention to detail and a high quality standard
- Comfortable working on real physical products, not just digital designs
- Good communication in English
Big plus if you have experience with:
- Packaging design for real products
- Working with manufacturers, especially in China
- Managing product samples and iterations
- Basic understanding of 3D products or working with 3D designers
- Tabletop gaming, D&D, or similar hobbies
- Branding and product presentation in retail
Who you are
- You enjoy building things and making ideas real.
- You are not afraid of repetition, revisions, or fixing small details until something is right.
- You take ownership. If something is off, you fix it or figure out how to fix it.
- You are practical. You understand that a good product is not just how it looks, but how it is produced.
- You are okay with structure not being perfect yet, and you can help improve it over time.
What the role looks like
You will start working closely with us and executing tasks with guidance. Over time, you will take ownership of parts of the product development process and reduce the load on the team.
If you perform well, this role can grow into a key position within the company. There will also be room to help shape new products and contribute your own ideas to future collections.
Level
We are open to both:
- Mid-level candidates who can work independently on packaging and products
- Junior candidates with strong fundamentals who are eager to learn and grow quickly
Location
Preferably based in the Netherlands and able to work from the office regularly.
Remote within the EU is possible for the right candidate.
How to apply
Reply here or send us your application at [email protected] and send us:
- Your portfolio (packaging work is strongly preferred)
- A short message about why this role fits you
If your profile matches, we will schedule a first interview. If we are both enthusiastic afterward, we will ask you to complete a small practical assignment focused on packaging and production.
This role is for someone who wants to build real products, not just design them. If that sounds like you, we would like to hear from you.
