Mid-weight Designer

A rare and exciting opportunity for an experienced mid-weight designer with an all-round design skillset, but with a specialisation in video editing and motion graphics, to join Getty Images – a company that is best-of-breed in supplying the world’s creative industries with award-winning photography, video and music.

We’re looking for someone to join the small, hard-working, EMEA Regional Marketing team, based remotely for the foreseeable future but potentially in our Camden offices at a later point. The role is initially on a ‘retained freelance’ basis with an initial term of one year (with the opportunity to renew at the end of that term). This position reports to the Senior Designer, EMEA and works directly for the EMEA Regional Marketing team.

As a varied role, working on a broad range of digital and printed customer-facing materials, it’s a chance for someone with strong design skills to develop and showcase conceptual thinking and bring fresh inspiration to a creative and design-led brand.

Who You Are

You’re naturally creative, versatile, with a great eye for design and a passion for everything visual. You’ll be working in a varied role, supporting our Senior Designer and Designer in owning the look and feel of all branding, sales tools and marketing collateral for the Getty Images and iStock brands across EMEA.

You’ll be comfortable multi-tasking and ready to lend your expertise and experience beyond the brief. Whilst able to work on simple layout, resizing, localisation and amendment jobs, you’ll balance this with making time to think big – generating conceptual thinking that can bring our creative brand and beautiful products to life for our customers.

Calm, organised and flexible under pressure, you’re happy working on multiple project streams at once, and produce consistently high level work, even to tight deadlines. With experience working within a corporate environment, you’ll be confident in your ability to build productive relationships both internally and with suppliers; streamlining your workflow and prioritising the demands of your stakeholders to ensure you’re making the best use of your time.

And you’ll be a people person: enthusiastic and eager to learn and share your experience within your networks. You’ll understand that in a large corporation with partners and stakeholders all over the world, the ability to build relationships, trust and consensus through effective communication is the key to success.

• Tackling a broad range of design projects, working on all of Getty Images’ EMEA customer-facing materials such as multimedia sales presentations, pitch materials, landing pages, emails, video sizzle reels and digital advertising.
