About the role

This is a design role for a creative with a strong portfolio, a genuine interest in brand storytelling, and the instincts to work beyond pure execution. You will join an in-house creative team embedded within a corporate environment, contributing directly to how our brand shows up across every channel, audience, and touchpoint.

We are looking for someone at a meaningful juncture in their career: past the learning curve of junior production, not yet in a formal art direction position, but already demonstrating the visual intelligence and conceptual thinking that will take them there. You can translate a brief into a compelling creative response, shape visual narratives with purpose, and make strong independent decisions—while still operating effectively within a structured organisation and benefiting from senior creative guidance.

In this role, you will balance creative ambition with commercial reality. You understand that great design in a corporate context means marrying visual craft with business objectives, brand consistency, and stakeholder needs. You are collaborative, clear-headed under pressure, and serious about doing the work well.
