Job Description

Experienced designer needed to take flight at Alive!

Prepare for take-off

Do you have a suitcase just bursting with creativity and ideas that you’re ready to unpack?

We’re on the lookout for a mid-weight designer, able to take an idea and launch it into the stratosphere with style and substance.

You’ll be joining our cracking crew of designers and will have an insatiable desire to create great work, with great people, and share our commitment to delivering corking creative communications.

Are you ready for lift-off?

Taking flight

We love nothing more than exploring the unknown and blazing new trails.

You’ll share this passion to create sky-scraping creative and an ability to work across diverse projects and briefs, from the corporate to the crazy.

You’ll have some agency or design experience, ideally 4+ years, strong digital know-how and a command of all types of print.

We’re looking for a smart talent, who understands the best way to get a message across.

You’ll sweat the details and know your way around the Adobe suite and PowerPoint control panels.

Jump on-board

You’ll become one of design crew, helping navigate the best creative solutions to our clients’ challenges:

  • Brimming with top ideas that can make the mundane marvellous
  • Previous experience designing in all print and digital fields
  • An eye for exceptional design
  • Outstanding attention to detail
  • A thorough understanding of Adobe Creative Cloud
  • A great communicator, able to explain and articulate their ideas
  • Willing to take the time to get under the skin of a brief
  • Ideally display one or more supporting skills to enhance our existing team – e.g illustration, animation, web or app development

What’s in your locker?

As well as your sparkling design skills, you’ll also be brimming with these vital personality traits:

  • A friendly and approachable nature
  • A natural curiosity and a desire to always know more
  • An ability to develop and maintain relationships that inspire trust and respect
  • The confidence and capability to contribute towards original and imaginative ideas
  • The ability to prioritise and balance workloads
  • Organised, hard-working and calm in the busy buzz of agency life
  • An eagle eye for detail
  • A proactive self-starter that can use their own initiative
  • …but most of all a great team player with a wicked sense of humour!

Fly in style at Alive

At Alive, we provide the perfect environment for a crew member to flourish.

As a fast-growing, innovative creative comms agency, we’ve been delighting clients with bold and brave work for more than 10 years.

We’ve developed impactful comms campaigns, exceptional employee engagement initiatives, and creative brand and website development for a diverse range of business and organisations, such as Sainsbury’s, TATA Consultancy Services, Ocado, Roche, eBay, KP Snacks and South East Water.

We’ve also been super-proud to support many public bodies through the incredibly challenging response to COVID-19, including the NHS, local authorities and fire services.

This is your captain speaking…

We can’t answer for everyone, but when we asked our champion team at Alive what they love about their job, they were pretty clear…

‘It feels like one big happy family’ – Laura

‘I can be myself and make a difference everyday’ - Rob

‘The constant flow of opportunities to get creative’ - Caroline
