The team and your role

Joining us as Senior Designer, you’re joining our global Brand Design team, led by Claudia, in a hands– on role.

Your mission is twofold: on the one hand, you’ll be acting as a design expert to advise and provide feedback to other team members and local stakeholders to accelerate design excellence across our brand identity and comms templates efficiently.

  • Provide guidance, feedback, and inspiration to a group of 5 designers to ensure design projects are executed effectively
  • Help the team to prioritize tasks and allocate resources
  • Ensure consistency of design across different channels and platforms, maintaining a unified brand identity.
• Your own design work
  • Take ownership of design projects
  • Execute all visual design stages – from concept to final project
  • Design comms layouts and templates for social media, ads, email marketing, as well design for events, ensuring the design is visually appealing, on– brand, and aligned with marketing goals
  • Produce design assets for Landing Pages to support the Global Web Team when necessary
