Jobbeschreibung

This is Edenspiekermann

We are Edenspiekermann - an independent design consultancy with 40+ years of experience helping world-leading organizations invent, build, and evolve their products. Our Product Strategy practice works directly with product teams at the intersection of market insight, design excellence, and AI-driven development.

Our interaction designers work in agile and interdisciplinary teams on websites and platforms for major brands as well as for startups. Our teams combine conceptual thinking, a sophisticated understanding of design and a deep knowledge of web and app development to develop a digital product or service with a user-centric approach. In doing so, we advise and coach our clients' teams to provide the best customer experience for their customers.

Description

You are a confident visual designer, creative storyteller and cultural thinker. You drive the creative output of brand-focused projects and work closely with teams and clients to develop strong brand narratives, identities and experiences. Brands today function less as static identities and more as operating systems: adaptive, scalable, and increasingly dynamic across digital products and services. Your role is to help define, design and implement such systems – ensuring they perform reliably across channels, platforms, and use cases.

Your tasks

• Lead the creative development of brand identities, from strategic foundations to visual execution

• Develop brand narratives and creative routes, translating strategy into expressive and scalable visual systems

• Guide and mentor designers, ensuring high craft quality and conceptual clarity

• Work with global brands, publishing houses and public institutions (e.g. healthcare, cities, universities) on complex branding challenges

• Translate brand strategies into digital products and cohesive brand experiences across touchpoints

• Collaborate closely with strategy, product and technology teams to ensure consistency and impact

• Present ideas clearly and confidently to clients, enabling alignment and decision-making

• Prepare remote and on-side workshops and are willing to facilitate them together with our Design Directors

• Contribute to and evolve design systems that function as operational brand platforms, not static guidelines

• Take ownership of projects with a hands‑on mentality, from concept to delivery

Your profile

• 6+ years of experience in brand and visual design, ideally within a design agency environment

• Strong portfolio demonstrating brand thinking, visual excellence, and conceptual depth

• Proven ability to connect strategy, storytelling and design execution

• Deep understanding of visual identity systems, typography, layout and color across digital and physical applications – including designing with and for AI‑driven systems

• Strong knowledge of design systems and digital products, how brands scale across platforms

• Experience leading creative workstreams and mentoring designers

• Ability to apply methodical brand development frameworks and navigate different project phases with clarity and rigor

• A visionary mindset – you embrace the culture and actively challenge and elevate the work

• Hands‑on, pragmatic approach paired with a positive, business‑oriented mindset

• Thanks to your communication skills you contribute to our trust‑and respectful feedback mentality

• Excellent communication skills in English (German is a plus)

Big plus

• You are already a professional in leveraging AI‑assisted tools, automated workflows and emerging software to enhance creative exploration, efficiency and quality

• Experience in overarching motion design principles that translate brand values into movement and make them scalable for all touchpoints

• Strong understanding of current accessibility standards and their impact on brand and design systems

We offer

• A central role in a dynamic, independent design consultancy with an international portfolio spanning enterprise product design, city identity, design systems, and regulated industries

• Direct access to partners and senior leadership – flat hierarchies, real autonomy, and room to shape how we do product strategy

• A dedicated team of high‑profile designers and strategists driven by a no‑ego, high‑craft culture

• Personal responsibility, space for your own ideas, and the opportunity to grow with the company and the practice

• 30 days paid vacation, hybrid work, and a dog‑friendly Berlin office

• Work‑life balance support including a potential four‑day week if needed

• Benefits including Urban Sports Club, food club, and ESPI cuisine

• Regular team gatherings and in‑house coaching and mentoring
