What we’re looking for
A Senior Designer works within our creative team to deliver extraordinary design by imagining unique answers to creative problems, developing striking and compelling designs, thinking on their feet to help the creative cause and inspiring their colleagues and companions. This role is on the consumer side of our business working primarily with our FMCG clients so we will need to see experience of the creation of brands and products from strategy to concept through to the delivery and a demonstration of the ongoing management of the more detailed principles for managing product messages, pack hierarchies and range navigation.
How we’ve created brand identities in the past is not enough to meet the demands of today. Immersive Branding goes beyond 2D visual design and includes visual, sound, touch, sensory and behaviour – and we’re looking for a creative who can connect these sensory expressions together and create holistic, original brand experiences.
Who we are
We are a global brand agency based in London and New York using strategy, creativity, and design to build immersive brands. For almost 45 years, we have partnered with some of the world’s biggest companies, including Formula 1, LEGO, Huawei, American Express, Post Office, Merck, Nationwide, Tesco, and Boots.
We enjoy the best of both worlds: we’re the perfect balance of big and small. We attract our own clients as a nimble group of about 40 people, whilst also being a part of WPP, the largest branding and advertising network in the world. We are a friendly, down-to-earth team – backed by the creativity, resources, and influence of a global network.
