How&How are seeking a full-time Senior Designer to join our London team. You will have raw talent, curiosity and a strong creative instinct—and help us deliver work for our clients which is bold, conceptual and different. You will be a team player who will be generous with ideas and have strong beliefs—loosely held.

You will be the driving force behind creative output, and work in our design team to develop the creative vision of a project. The majority of the creative heavy lifting takes place by you, and it's essential you’re not afraid to get stuck in on all levels of work. Egos get left at the door.

You will need to be comfortable working in various design and illustration aesthetics and have a cohesive understanding of how their frames will translate into animated pieces and design projects. Motion skills are highly desirable.

Your Responsibilities:

• Assist with pitches, and carve creative brand routes from ideation phase to design development and roll-out

• Be primarily responsible for the visual thrust behind any ideas being presented, but also contribute as much to the strategic thinking and conceptual rationale behind those ideas

• Be the lead creative on a particular project. This requires you to have the basic skills necessary to manage both yourself and the projects of other designers—leading and inspiring juniors and mids, and delivering compelling work from beginning to end

• Have your finger on the pulse of current trends in the world of design / art / fashion / creativity / culture and bring that information and enthusiasm for popular culture into the design studio everyday

• Know when to follow design rules, and when to break them

Your Skills:

• 6+ years hands-on experience as a Brand Designer

• Able to get under the skin of client’s issues

• Able to build personal relationships and trust with clients

• Articulate, confident and assertive in presenting work

• Strong creative instincts and willingness to push further through experimentation

• Motion skills extremely desirable

• Additional tools are a big plus: code, illustration, etc

Your Vibe:

• Interested in more than just design

• Can-do positivity and optimistic attitude :)
