Senior Graphic Designer

Your Creative Process:

We give our Designers the freedom and space to play, there are client deliverables to meet within our Creative Process but how you get to these is up to you.

As a Senior Graphic Designer, you will be contributing to the entire lifecycle of a project, from concept through to completion, working closely with the wider Design Team, Production Team and fabrication partners. This role requires a conceptual thinker that can confidently articulate their ideas and bring them to life in a diverse range of spaces. Previous experience in environmental graphic design is crucial and we’d love to see examples of these projects and your creative process in your portfolio.

Our Creative Process:

Phase 1: Discover - Understanding the brief, the client and the space. Researching themes and narratives to inspire the designs.

Phase 2: Design - Creating concepts derived from the chosen theme for the space. We call these idea cards, they are loose, sketchy and conceptual. The chosen ideas are then refined further.

Phase 3: Develop - Developing the chosen ideas, considering materiality and creating fully formed designs ready to be artworked, fabricated and installed.

Phase 4: Detail (Production Team)

Phase 5: Deliver (PM Team)
