About the Role
We’re looking for a creative and collaborative Designer to join us on a six-month fixed term basis to help bring our brand to life across all areas of Dementia UK, from high-impact campaigns to the essential materials that support our day-to-day work. This is an exciting time to get involved, as you will play a key role in the creative development and roll out of our new visual identity across all touch points.
Responsibilities
Working closely with our Senior Designer, you will play a key role in embedding our visual identity across everything we produce. You will work on a wide variety of print and digital design projects, from fundraising campaigns and clinical resources, to social media content, reports, leaflets, and internal communications. This is a hands-on, varied role where you’ll take creative concepts from idea to execution, always ensuring your work is accessible, on-brand, and impactful.
You will be responsible for delivering high-quality, compelling design solutions that meet the needs of teams across the charity. You will manage your own projects from start to finish, handling timelines, feedback, approvals, and production. As Designer, we will expect you to contribute to our brand development, support improvements in our creative processes, and offer guidance on accessibility in design. Above all, you will work closely with colleagues across fundraising, campaigning, and clinical services helping to ensure our visual identity is consistent, creative, and meaningful wherever it appears.
Requirements
We are looking for you to bring significant experience working in-house as a multi-disciplinary designer, with a track record of taking creative concepts from initial idea right through to final artwork and delivery. You understand how to interpret and apply brand guidelines with care and precision, ensuring every piece of work is consistent, high quality, and fit for purpose across a range of formats and channels. Naturally organised and proactive, you’re comfortable managing multiple projects at once with the ability to prioritise your workload effectively and deliver great work, even when things get busy.
