Currently working with a leading global entertainment company, looking for a Content Retoucher to join their international creative team on an initial 12-month contract.

This is a specialist, hands-on role for a retoucher who takes genuine pride in the craft of finishing. The ideal candidate will confidently take an approved composition and transform it into pixel-perfect, production-ready artwork.

Working closely with Content Designers and Art Directors, you'll be the final creative pair of hands on many assets before they move into production & publishing.

  • Delivering high-end retouching across skin, wardrobe, environments and detailed image cleanup
  • Creating seamless composites from multiple sources, including unit photography, episodic stills, and layered PSDs
  • Managing technically complex imagery, while maintaining consistent lighting, perspective, tone, and visual quality
  • Applying precise colour correction and grading to ensure consistency across a title's artwork
  • Working across multiple assets and titles simultaneously, managing priorities independently against tight deadlines
  • Partnering closely with Content Designers and Art Directors to understand creative intent and proactively resolve technical challenges

Key Requirements

  • 6+ years' professional experience as a Retoucher within a high-end environment, ideally within entertainment, editorial, advertising, publishing or streaming
  • A genuine passion for image craft and an exceptional eye for detail
  • Expert-level Adobe Photoshop skills, including advanced retouching, masking, and compositing
  • Extensive experience working with layered PSDs, raw stills and mixed-resolution source material
  • Strong understanding of production-ready artwork, formats and templates
  • Experience working at pace and delivering to demanding deadlines without compromising quality
  • Familiarity with entertainment, streaming or on-platform asset specifications would be a strong bonus
