Who are we looking for

A Senior Designer who is a solid all-rounder, required to work on various projects, from
big 360 ideas to reactive, social-first ones. They’ll be able to craft creative that clearly communicates these ideas to the intended audience.

The work will cover the full spectrum of disciplines, such as digital design for emails, social and landing pages to graphic design for print and environmental.

They will have been working in a similar position at a creative agency, be highly experienced, hands-on, and be able to work autonomously and as part of a team.

They should be able to effectively manage their own time, juggling multiple projects at any one time.

Experience:

• Experience of working with clients from pitching to delivery of projects.
• A good knowledge of the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, XD) and Google Docs.
• Graphic design: typography, layout, art direction. Print experience is essential.
• Working across the whole spectrum of media communications including traditional ATL, social, web, mobile, email, and print including large format.
• Inspecting and complying with brand guidelines.
• Applying precise attention to detail and determination to bring craft and quality to the creative work.
• Good time-keeping skills and ability to work to deadlines.

Key Behaviours:

• Approachable, personable with an enthusiastic nature and drive for excellence.
• Experience in managing a small team.
• Credible, clear and articulate with good communication and presentation skills.
• Flexible, diplomatic, and tactful with a matter-of-fact approach to resolving design challenges with both the internal teams and our clients.
• Passionate about creativity and design, with an interest in print.
• An eye for detail and appreciation of craft.
• Amend, revise or redevelop creative or campaigns in response to feedback from the creative director, account team or clients.
• Work on several campaigns at once, sometimes under pressure and often to tight deadlines.
• Keep up to date with popular culture and trends.
