Who we'd like to find

Since 2004, we’ve grown from only four to over a hundred by finding the right people – people that don’t only slot right into our studio culture, but bring something incredible to it.

This role calls for someone who brings:

Big ideas – As a studio we work across visual, verbal, 3Dimensional and digital experiences – but the big idea is always the most important part of what we do. You're developing your conceptual thinking, contribute ideas with confidence, and enjoy exploring different creative directions.

Strong design craft – Typography, composition and visual communication are your foundations. You have a portfolio that demonstrates precision, attention to detail and a genuine love of graphic design.

Whether it's Figma, motion, AI workflows or emerging technology, you're excited by how they can enhance creativity and help shape the future of design.

Curiosity & experimentation – You enjoy exploring new techniques, technologies and cultural trends, and aren't afraid to experiment. You actively seek inspiration from beyond graphic design and are always looking to learn.

Something unexpected – Alongside your graphic design skills, we'd love to see what else you bring. Whether it's animation, photography, filmmaking, illustration, creative coding, writing, music or something we've never considered before, we want to see what makes you uniquely you.
