Senior Brand Designer | Built Environment
Central London | £55,000-£60,000 | Permanent | Studio-based
I'm partnering with an internationally recognised design studio on the search for a Senior Brand Designer to join a growing team working at the intersection of brand, architecture and the built environment.
This isn't a traditional branding role, nor is it a pure environmental graphics or wayfinding position.
Instead, it's an opportunity to help shape places through branding, creating identities and experiences that live within physical environments across hospitality, retail, mixed-use developments, destinations and lifestyle projects.
Working alongside architects, interior designers and strategists, you'll develop brands from the earliest stages of a project, translating ideas into experiences through environmental graphics, placemaking, installations, wayfinding and branded environments.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Why you're a good match

Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme — client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What they're looking for
More than anything, they're looking for a conceptual designer.
Someone who enjoys asking questions, building narratives, developing ideas and presenting them with confidence, rather than simply executing finished concepts.
They're far more interested in how you think than whether you've spent years producing fabrication drawings or signage packages.
The ideal person will enjoy collaborating across disciplines and seeing projects evolve from early strategy through to delivery.
Backgrounds that could work
This is deliberately a broad search. You might currently be working in:
- Brand Design
- Property Branding
- Placemaking
- Environmental Graphic Design (EGD)
- Branded Environments
- Spatial Design
- Experience Design
- Retail or Hospitality Branding
- Architecture Graphics
- Destination Branding

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
If you've worked alongside architects, interior designers or multidisciplinary design teams, even better.
What will make you stand out
We're looking for portfolios that demonstrate:
- Strong conceptual thinking
- Storytelling and design rationale
- Brand strategy translated into physical space
- Confidence presenting ideas to clients
- Research, process and creative development, not just polished final visuals
The essentials
- Permanent opportunity
- £55,000-£60,000
- Central London
- Five days a week in the studio (this is a firm requirement)
- Applicants should already be based within commuting distance of London or planning to relocate
If your work sits somewhere between branding, architecture and experience design, and you enjoy creating ideas that people can physically interact with, I'd love to hear from you.
