About the role
- Work directly with our 200+ brands, ranging from early-stage companies to more established brands, universities, and nonprofits.
- Concepting brand ideas, crafting dashing visual identities, designing websites and other (digital) brand applications, and planning and creating visuals for campaigns.
- Take ownership of brand design projects, leading both the internal team and the client.
- Drive the creative process, leading brand work for a client or two from the get-go.
- Guarantee that creative work is aligned with the brand, keeping the client happy, and managing projects in a smooth manner.

Requirements
- 5+ years of design experience – You have an extensive portfolio showcasing brand identity and digital design projects, from strategy to execution.
- Deep understanding of branding – You know that a great visual identity is just one aspect of branding, and understand that your expertise is needed from the first positioning exercise to continuous marketing and communications efforts.
- Simply put: you’re a very good designer – You know this, but you don’t let it go over your head. You value straight talk and direct feedback and want to know when your work is not first-rate.
- You understand the technology and tools your designs are built on – You work well with developers and understand how much time making pixel-perfect work requires. We're mainly working in Figma and Adobe CC.
- Client communications and project management experience – You're confident running interviews, meetings and leading projects by yourself or with a team. You keep a cool head under pressure, and can give and take candid feedback well.
- Quick to understand new industries – We build brands for a great variety of products, services, and companies – from mobile games and quantum computers to electronic performance cars and new textile materials.
- Working proficiency in English – It will be your first working language as we work with several international brands and communicate in English within our team.
