Senior Designer - Brand & Ideas

Do you have ideas
people remember?

The bar we’re setting

We’re looking for a senior designer who leads with ideas — particularly in B2B contexts. Someone who thinks clearly, creates boldly and executes with precision.

You bring confidence to your work. You have a point of view. You can take an idea from first thought to final output and make it land.

You’re as strong conceptually as you are visually. And you care about the detail.

The Role
