Job Description
We need an exceptional, relentlessly creative and design obsessed midweight designer to join our team and have the confidence to exert their influence on our studio and creative output from the get go.
You must have at least three years’ professional experience, predominantly in an agency environment, and be proficient across the Adobe Creative Cloud, and also, really importantly, be extremely proficient working in Figma.
We’re looking for our new recruit to have ambition, be as passionate about our company as we are and to grow as we grow, both professionally and personally. We also need the right candidate to have the desire to develop quickly into a more senior creative leadership role, keen to guide, motivate, advise and inspire their colleagues across all levels of the business.
Conceptually literate as well as design focussed, you’ll possess great attention to detail, be a good communicator and able to work quickly and to a high standard within a fast paced creative environment. We want someone who is inquisitive, informed, and really interested in life, in culture, in music and who ideally (although this wouldn’t be a dealbreaker) knows a thing or two about football and the culture that surrounds it.
You must be a confident presenter, with natural people skills. The ability to spot growth opportunities with existing clients, as well as new business opportunities from outside our existing client rosta, would be a big bonus.
Any knowledge and skills in the following are desirable although not essential: Glyphs, AfterEffects, Cinema 4D, HTML, CSS and JS. We also welcome any keen photographers or wordsmiths! We need someone who is primarily a great designer, but any other skill sets and passions you can bring to the party will be warmly welcomed.
HeyBigMan! is a multidisciplinary creative agency with a weighting towards strategy-based brand design, so experience in visual identity creation, coupled with a love of branding is a must. We have a varied, cross-sector mix of clients, and you’ll also be contributing creatively to our own self generated initiatives within the HBM! ecosystem. No two days are ever the same and designers love working with us as we produce such an eclectic mix of work. You’ll almost certainly be doing things you’ve never done before and so your learning curve will be steep!
Our studio is in vibrant Hackney Wick, London, a lovely place to work but that’s alive with creative energy. But in our post pandemic world of work, you won’t be expected to be studio based every day.
Salary and wider benefits to be advised on application.
