Job description

Grip is experiencing exciting growth and expansion. To help us on the challenging journey to create the most beautiful and best-performing experiences for both clients and customers, we are looking for a Retoucher to join Grip!


As a Retoucher, you'll demonstrate exceptional attention to detail and creative problem-solving abilities. Your expertise in seamlessly removing products from their original backgrounds and accurately reconstructing the surroundings will be essential. You'll also excel at flawlessly integrating 3D renders into existing images, ensuring a perfect blend that matches the original image's color palette, lighting, and shadows.


What’s Grip?

As INDG's software branch, Grip is an end-to-end content automation platform that generates infinite ad variations by combining CGI, rule-based generative AI, and post-production into an easy-to-use automated content generation platform that transforms master ad creatives into endless variations—empowering brands to scale content production globally without compromising on quality or brand consistency.


Grip works by taking master content supplied by brands or their agencies and converting it into a deeply modular configurator. This allows marketers to create their own visual adaptations and variations effortlessly, saving millions in production costs while maintaining brand consistency.


What will you do?

  • Take images of new products and seamlessly integrate them into existing photographed scenes - meaning you will retouch products (bottles, cans) to make them look real alongside the models or objects in the photograph
  • Retouch the photograph to allow space for the new product to fit in. This can include removing the old product as well as retouching the model's fingers/arms/hands to make the new product fit
  • Add reflections and shadows from nearby objects in the scene onto the new products
  • Colour grading, matching sharpness/blurriness, matching noise levels, and adjusting the size of the products
  • Follow our standardised method of working on the Photoshop files/layers so team members can easily work on the file too

Job requirements

Would be amazing if you have:

  • A background in product photography or similar and you understand what a technically good image is (lightning, compositing, etc).
  • Worked as a Retoucher and understand how to translate clients’ needs to our internal team.
  • Excellent Photoshop skills
  • A good understanding of lighting; i.e. how an object should reflect both the lights and other nearby objects, how it should cast shadows, how light travels through liquid, how a glass bottle should distort the objects behind it, etc. And to be able to look at a photograph and understand where the lights are coming from, their size, colour and the type of shadow they will cast
  • Excellent attention to detail
  • Communication skills to discuss issues or potential improvements to the workflow
