An exciting opportunity has opened for a Senior Brand Designer who loves seeing brands come to life in physical spaces to join an ambitious and growing independent creative studio.
This is a particularly exciting role for a designer who enjoys working at the intersection of brand identity, strategy and the built environment, creating distinctive brand experiences that move seamlessly from digital touchpoints into real-world spaces.

- Experience across environmental graphics, signage, wayfinding or spatial brand applications
- Excellent storytelling and presentation skills, with the confidence to build trust with senior clients
- A strategic mindset and the ability to uncover compelling creative ideas from client and audience insight
