As a Senior Concept Designer - Art, Graphics and Branded Environments, you will help steer the future of our brand's narrative, communicating our brand stories in over 4000 Starbucks stores through art, storytelling, and branding to deliver meaningful change for communities near and far. You are organized, confident, and articulate, able to deliver information to a variety of stakeholders through compelling storytelling.

You will thrive working in a fast-paced environment on a huge variety of projects that will be key to the future innovation of our in-store experience.

Working with the senior design manager for EMEA concepts, you will be the subject matter expert when it comes to art, graphics, and branding of our store environments, with the responsibility of commissioning new artists and coaching the wider store design team on graphical principles.

Experience in commissioning artwork/murals/illustrations, art direction, managing design consultants, and connections within the world of art and artists is essential.

The Key Requirements...

• Stakeholder management and ability to partner with a variety of business functions and external partners
• Adobe Creative Suite working knowledge
• Graphic design expertise in relation to physical branded environments
