Job Description

About us

We are Poppins, a London-based branding and digital creative agency, focused on delivering beautiful identities and building impeccable digital products. We believe our work stands out because we pride ourselves on striking an emotional chord with our clients, through a love for truly great design.

We are a family of designers, writers, strategists and developers, growing rapidly in size and reputation.

About the role

We’re looking for an enthusiastic problem solver with a love and hunger for building brands. You'll be working on projects spanning a wide range of disciplines, being exposed to design challenges across brand creation, brand campaigns and digital experiences.

Our work is ideas based and strategic, so your primary job will be to own and drive projects forwards — through immersive storytelling, magical ideas, meticulous design and clear, rational thinking.

You'll be expected to...

  • deliver ideas and concepts that combine a creative and strategic understanding
  • think beyond the logo, providing well-rounded brand identity systems
  • see challenges as opportunities
  • think digitally, creating brands that feel as much at home online as they do in print
  • have an eye for detail, with solid craft and technical understanding
  • be great at organising and prioritising your and others’ workloads
  • effectively collaborate with clients and team members
  • be an excellent communicator, articulating your ideas with clarity and confidence

You'll need

  • 5+ years experience
  • A portfolio full of strong conceptual ideas that are executed to the highest standard
  • A passion for all things branding and digital
  • A high level of accuracy and an obsessive attention to detail
  • A positive, proactive, can-do attitude
  • Knowledge of print and digital design best practices (animation is a big bonus)
  • Awareness of current design trends and new ways of working
  • Excellent communication skills
  • A proactive appetite for learning new skills

Our culture

Poppins’ culture is really important to us. We are building a diverse and inclusive team, underpinned by values of creativity, integrity and support. We care about our work and we care about each other. The studio is fast-paced and constantly growing, so you'll need an open mind, a good sense of humour and to be able to take the initiative.

We're a social bunch too, so we're looking for someone who's as comfortable working hard on a pitch as they are enjoying a post-work wind-down.

Benefits

  • 25 days holiday
  • Flexible working — option to work up to 2 days from home per week
  • Generous personal health & wellness package
  • Quarterly wellness workshops
  • We will match charity fundraising efforts
  • Up to four weeks a year working from anywhere in the world
  • Join a growing and exciting studio with excellent growth opportunities
  • Working with a fun, highly-motivated team where there’s never a dull moment
