  • Contributing ideas to improve studio processes, workflows and creative standards

Interested? Here’s what we’re looking for:

  • Proven experience in a graphic design role, with a strong portfolio demonstrating creative work for mass communication
  • Confidence designing across both print and digital is preferred but not essential for the right candidate
