Design Director
Apply now
You’re a designer at the peak of your powers. You bring world-class craft, the judgment to know when a concept can drive a whole brand, and the conviction to bring everyone with you. Knowing that the strongest ideas emerge through collaboration. You’re a creative leader who elevates the work and the people around you.
About the role
You’ll be at the heart of the creative process. Setting direction, exploring possibilities, and creating the conditions for everyone around you to do the same. Bringing together strategists, writers, designers, creative technologists and client partners to create work that is stronger than the sum of its parts. You'll bring exceptional creative judgment, a strong point of view, and the conviction to push the work until it's truly great. From early strategic thinking through to final execution.
You’ll take ownership of the quality of the outcome across brand creation, rebrands and other creative challenges. Our work spans the digital and physical, and you’ll help teams create work that is both creatively ambitious and commercially effective across a wide range of applications.
You'll set the standard for creative ambition across the agency through your craft, your curiosity and your generosity. Inspiring clients and colleagues to be braver. And creating work that creates different realities.
Who we’re looking for
You’re actively seeking out new ideas, cultural influences, tools, and technologies. We don’t expect you to know everything, but we do expect a mindset that is curious, ambitious, collaborative, and unwilling to settle for average.
We’re committed to building a diverse, inclusive environment where everyone can feel appreciated for who they are and supported in their personal and professional growth. We encourage applications from people who may not necessarily ‘fit’ the typical branding agency mould. We’re looking for creative people looking for something different, because we are too.
While we have a flexible approach to remote working, we have a studio-first culture. With everyone on the team spending a minimum of 24 hours (roughly 3 days) a week in the studio.
Salary
From £70,000 depending on experience
