The Studio
Aaward-winning creative agency with over 20 years of experience transforming brands through powerful design, communications and marketing communications. With an established team of specialists across Creative, Strategy and Client Services, the studio brings together a collaborative mix of creative thinking, strategic insight and commercial understanding.
Working predominantly across retail, the environment is fast-paced, varied and highly creative. The team works with an exciting range of well-known brands, delivering work across multiple channels and touchpoints. It’s a place for people who are passionate about creativity, enjoy working collaboratively and thrive on the energy and variety that comes with a busy studio. The team are together in the studio 3 days a week (these days are flexible and non-set).
The Opportunity
We’re looking for a talented Senior Designer to join the creative team and play a key role in developing innovative, engaging design solutions for two pillar clients.
You’ll take projects from initial concept through to production, developing creative responses that meet both client objectives and the needs of their customers. You’ll have the opportunity to lead projects and take ownership of specific client work, working closely with Creative, Strategy and Client Services.
The role will involve developing concepts, presenting creative ideas internally and to clients, interpreting briefs, using research and insight to inform creative thinking, and producing high-quality artwork across relevant channels including print, campaigns, point of sale and digital.
You’ll also be expected to contribute to the wider creative team — sharing knowledge, supporting and mentoring more junior creatives where appropriate, collaborating with colleagues and confidently contributing your perspective to the development of work.
This is a hands-on role for someone who can balance strong creative thinking with commercial awareness, excellent attention to detail and the ability to deliver high-quality work to deadline and budget.
The Ideal Candidate
- An experienced senior Designer with a strong background in graphic design, ideally gained within an advertising or creative agency environment and working across a broad range of marketing and communications channels.
- Has outstanding creative and design skills, with a strong eye for layout, typography, brand and visual communication, combined with the ability to develop innovative ideas that respond effectively to a brief.
- Is commercial and brand-minded, with a thorough understanding of brand management, marketing and how creative solutions can support wider business and customer objectives. Retail or shopper marketing experience would be particularly valuable.
- Needs to be a confident communicator and collaborator, comfortable presenting creative ideas, explaining design rationale, working with clients and building strong relationships with Creative, Account Management and other specialists.
- Is highly organised and detail-focused, with experience taking projects from concept through to accurate final artwork, managing multiple deadlines and maintaining consistently high standards under pressure.
- Is proactive, curious and positive, with the confidence to work independently, solve problems, challenge constructively, seek feedback and contribute ideas, while also being approachable, inclusive and supportive of the wider team.
