• Contribute to business development, branding and marketing materials.
• Contribute to asset management, collation and archiving.
• Learn new skills, stay abreast of technical and digital design developments, and successfully apply these to work practices to improve processes and procedures.
• Foster high design standards at Kablamo by mentoring team members and contributing to design critiques, helping shape a strong and inclusive culture within Kablamo Studio.

• Experience in an agile environment, collaborating end-to-end across product lifecycles : working with Product, Engineering, QA and Business Development
