About you
We are looking for a UI and digital graphic designer with a minimum of 2-3 years of experience to join our team full-time in our London office, located near Hackney Wick. We also embrace remote work, so it's not required to be physically in the office every day, most of the oio team works remotely.
You will be working within our design team, supporting both client projects and internal work as the person responsible for the visual production, ultimately contributing to oio’s long-term visual language and brand identity across a wide range of public assets.
We are looking for someone with a strong leaning towards digital (rather than print and analog media), as most of our work is focused on visualising digital products and strategic opportunities through the creation of future scenarios. You’ll be in charge of creating the supporting visual assets, bringing to life interfaces (web, mobile, and devices that don't exist yet), future scenarios, infographics. Even if UI and UX are a strong component of this position, we are looking for a designer with wider horizontal visual production skills who can also support on higher level design assets. It’s not a strictly UX/UI role, as you’ll be working within the wider Design Team in the creation of supporting documents and presentations, ultimately bringing our narratives to life. You will become an essential player in our small team.
