Designer

Our client is a small integrated agency, with a roster of great clients, they are currently looking for a new designer:

You will be the cornerstone of the Creative Department, working on design for the entire roster of clients, working across all disciplines; advertising, branding, DM, web, email, brochures, leaflets, packaging, magazines and anything else a concept or brief demands. The work will varied, from projects that require real thought to some elements that may be more day-to- day.

A love of design, a deep seated desire to do amazing work and the ambition to be part of a company where ok is never good enough -this person will have a portfolio that demonstrates a range of work and styles that pushes design boundaries and surprises.

The work you present will have thought and meaning behind it, not just pretty pictures on a page. You’ll need to have a high level of experience with the full Adobe Creative Design Suite and be able to work to tight deadlines. You’ll be curious, eager to learn and enjoy being part of a wider team that shares their ethos.

Fearless, enthusiastic, ambitious and hungry – you will want work to be the best it possibly can be. This attitude shouldn’t only be confined to projects you work on, you should be a champion of design across the entire company and be as excited about helping others achieve success as crafting a piece of work for yourself. You will want to share work you’ve seen and admired and be prepared to critique, cajole and nurture others around you. You’ll want to be learning and growing with every new job and enjoy the fact that each piece of work will be even better than the last.

An upturn in unprompted feedback from our clients, an award win or two and a successful pitch win will be clear markers of success. But beyond that, whooping and hollering from colleagues as work leaves the agency, combined with staff looking at you as a benchmark of great work will all contribute to the success of this individual.

This person will look forward to growing with the company, by excelling in their role they’ll help drive the agency’s expansion and opportunities for career development will be abundant. Their individual ambitions will define the path they take and we will support them in achieving those goals.

Ideally you will have a minimum of 2-3 years demonstrating a ‘whatever it takes’ attitude. You may have been freelancing, working at a design agency, another through the line agency or a more boutique shop. You will need to have worked on and owned a range of projects and be able to speak confidently and passionately about them.

We think this will be one of the last roles we fill where the person will help define us and our future. This person should be excited about joining a growing company that has ambitions for world domination at a stage where their skills and passion will make a real difference.
