Senior Graphic Designer

Founded in 1995 in Portugal, Slash is a strategic design studio. We think for purpose and impact, driven by our natural makers spirit.

Based in Abu Dhabi, we build brands for a wide range of clients, from cities to organizations in arts and culture, government entities to social initiatives.

We are a living project.

Always evolving, constantly curious and constantly learning, aiming to be better today than we were yesterday.

Right now we’re looking for an ambitious, smart creative to join our team as a senior designer (Ideally 5+ years experience).

As part of a tight knit team of designers, makers and brand strategists, you’ll conceive and build brand and experience identities and play an integral creative role for our clients.

You will consult across industries, on a range of brand topics (e.g., visual identity systems, positioning, brand architecture, naming, and customer experience), and use those insights and references to develop a creative approach to the visual/graphical and experiential challenges faced by the client.

This is an opportunity to join a talented and passionate group in developing and building some of the country’s leading brands. The team-oriented environment allows for exposure to Senior Partners across Slash and the opportunity to be involved in key decision-making processes.

This is a permanent, and full time job, based at our HQ in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Responsibilities could involve:

Gathering, organizing and summarizing references that match the intents of the project, into moodboards

To produce highly creative, credible design solutions

To prepare and deliver presentations to the internal team and to clients

To develop strong relationships with the studio, clients and partners

Job specific requirements

5 + Years experience in similar roles or proven senior design rolls.

High level branding skills

Outstanding presentation and interpersonal skills

Ability to work from concept to delivery

A diverse portfolio that demonstrates strong ideas-based thinking, brand systems – some experience in exhibition and space design would be ideal, but not essential
