Full Time, Mid-Weight Designer

Mantra Brand House is a specialist branding agency, based in Dalston, London. We’re a small team plotting big things and are looking for a new designer with a minimum 4 years experience to join us.

We work with ambitious brands on both one-off and long-term projects - with some relationships spanning 14+ years. Clients stay with us because we become their oracle, their cheerleader and a part of the team.

As an integral part of the Creative team, you will collaborate with the Creative Director on projects from concept to final delivery.

The role requires an original thinker who understands the strategy behind a brief and then takes ownership of the project to deliver a considered, coherent and elevated creative solution.

A passionate and organised creative, you'll be applying your design skills across print, digital, large scale interiors and OOH, advertising and marketing collateral - whilst working on original and established brands. You will also be brought into meetings and liaising directly with clients, therefore experience in presenting your work and navigating client relationships is as important as on the Mac.

We are based in the open plan work space of Print Club London, Dalston where there is a network of designers, illustrator, artists, animators and project managers - plus the benefit of an on-site screen printing room, training and use of which comes as a major perk. You will be required to come into the workspace initially to get into the role, however a WFH time split can be agreed once you’re established.
