Join the team, shape the future
We’re looking for a Senior Graphic Designer to join our ambitious team. An exciting opportunity to help shape the future of some of the world’s most exciting, disruptive consumer brands.
As a multi-disciplined creative, your primary role is to act as the design lead, working directly with our Creative Director, John Taylor and our studio and client team to deliver beautifully crafted, conceptual thinking that communicates the clients’ brand strategy.
We’re looking for someone with a strong creative point of view, who enjoys solving complex creative challenges. You’ll love the challenge of taking brand systems to the next level or creating entirely new ones for maximum impact.
You’ll be bold enough to make strong design decisions, driving the work from conception to delivery. You’ll also be confident when presenting ideas and creative work and humble enough to embrace both internal and external feedback.
As a small but well formed team, we’ll also encourage you to be involved in guiding the design direction on creative projects in the studio, while contributing and sharing knowledge and experience to the development and growth of the creative team.
Come join us.
Be brave, be bold, be Better.
What you'll need:
Have extensive experience - you should have a deep understanding of branding and identity design and extensive experience crafting, developing and delivering brands across multiple brand touchpoints. You should also have experience of being the lead designer on brand projects.
Be conceptual - you generate original ideas favouring brave and surprising solutions. You are interested in the underlying principles of an idea and comfortable explaining its rationale. You should develop concepts that focus on the core ideas that drive a brand and help to articulate those ideas visually.
Create impact - you are brave, persuasive and articulate. You clearly express your point of view and support others in developing and articulating theirs. You should be confident when challenging your team and adept at spotting gaps in thinking that can result in weak conceptual foundations.
Take responsibility - You meet the deadline and are focused on ensuring the task at hand is fully completed. You champion your craft and are meticulous about the detail.
