United Kingdom Jobs

We’re looking for someone who wants to craft, hone and energise brands through exceptional creativity and skill. We build brands through collaboration and creative endeavour, and our incredible team is growing and on the hunt for someone with a minimum of three years of experience in a design team to come and bring big ideas and even bigger aspirations for our clients projects.

What you’ll be doing

• You will be tasked with creating brands with strong graphic foundations that bring our strategies to life in bold and exciting ways.
• Strategy leads to great creativity, and it’s at the core of every piece of work we deliver. You should bring evidence of how you’ve brought strategies to life through creativity – and showcase the outcomes of your work.
• Design principles form the foundation of everything you create. Beautifully considered layouts, perfect positioning, composition and evocative movement – a satisfyingly succinct structure to every creative outcome.
• Creative flair will be at the core of who you are – bringing your unique perspective, ideas and aspirations to every brand expression. You will bring gut instinct as much as considered logic to really challenge each outcome.
• The outcomes will be a focal point of our projects and you should relish the craftsmanship of creativity and produce every piece of work with our maker’s mark of quality.

But above all, we’re looking for someone with fearless creative flair. Perhaps you know that you’ve got that, but haven’t had the space or confidence to flex it yet. So know that if you want to be this person, but need a bit more confidence to get there – know that you’ll be surrounded by a great team who’ll be your cheerleaders to get there!

If you love to experiment, push the boundaries and challenge the conventions, this might well be the role for you. Ideas that realise an organisation’s potential are the core of what we do as an agency and clearly communicating that potential through brand design, and championing movement is our shared creative mission.

The day-to-day:

• Working as part of the creative team to formulate, create and deliver international brand identities
• Delivering brand projects from concept to completion
• Working across the agency to support wider communication work
• Pitch and craft compelling visual identities through the creative mediums that you enjoy
• Bring ideas and examples of how your brands and visual identities could be brought to life through motion (you don’t need to be an animator just be able to show you can think about design in a holistic way)
• Collaborate with colleagues, copywriters, digital designers and clients to realise creative projects

All of these will be in collaboration and with the support of your teammates, but we’ll also look to you to have confidence and enjoyment in leading work in your discipline.

Software

• You have a strong skill set in Adobe Creative Suite and Figma
• You should have a personal interest in new technologies and sharing those learnings with others.

Personality

As our name suggests, we are a UnitedUs – an ambitious tight-knit team of experts each bringing our own unique perspective and experiences to every project, therefore you need to be a team player with individual flair and creativity. You should be someone who enjoys the creative challenge and is always looking for a better solution to every question. You should be someone who loves to interact with others, someone who enjoys elevating others as much as yourself and someone who is driven by the collaborative quality of the work we produce.

• A solid understanding of core graphic design principles – either through formal education or self-taught

• Superb attention to detail and ability to scamp your ideas and designs
