TL;DR

Love video games? Love the beautiful game? Love video games about the beautiful game?? Love playing with beautiful designs for video games about the beautiful game??? We’re on the hunt for a graphic designer who knows their way around a creative brief, can turn pixels into pure platinum, and isn’t afraid to push visual boundaries.

For this role, a love of football would be a bonus. You may have gathered that.

You’ll bridge the gap between our producer’s vision and the final creative - delivering eye-popping, scroll-stopping assets that don’t tick a box, they smash it to bits.

Please note that this role is on-site at our Leeds city centre office only. Remote working is not an option for this one.

WHO ARE OTHER THINGS?

We’re a creative agency with a focus on the gaming and entertainment industries. We produce a lot of videos, websites, marketing and brand assets, and all the other creative bits in-between, for some of the world’s biggest gaming brands.

We’re called Other Things.

WHAT’S THE JOB?

We’re looking for a sharp, detail-loving graphic designer who can take a brief and run with it - concepting, designing, and delivering work that’s as bold and exciting as the games we’re shouting about. A big focus of this role will be to work on a well-known AAA football game, so we’re looking for someone who understands the language of football, both IRL and online.

You’ll be working across a broad mix of static design work: social content, print assets, key art, campaign branding, pitch decks, and whatever else lands on your desk. You’ll be responsible for the design and execution of stills and static assets, ensuring every piece is visually spot-on and creatively on-point.

You’ll act as a vital bridge between the content producers and the final deliverables - turning ideas and campaign plans into polished visuals that bring it all together. You’ll work closely with our creative leads, writers, and motion designers, keeping the visual language consistent and the quality high.

This is a hands-on role for someone who cares about craft. Whether you’re refining a logo, wrangling layout options for a pitch deck, or designing scroll-stopping artwork for socials, you know what excellent looks like and you don’t stop until you get it.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Take the lead on the design and execution of stills and static assets across a range of formats: digital, social, pitch decks, print and more
• Concept, design, and refine visual ideas from initial sketches to final delivery
• Collaborate closely with writers, motion designers and creative leads to ensure alignment across formats and platforms
• Work within existing brand worlds and be adept at shaping new ones from scratch
• Act as a creative bridge, translating the vision of producers and creatives into compelling visual outputs
• Stay plugged in to visual and cultural trends — especially in football, gaming, and fan culture.
• Keep your files organised and your assets ready for motion, dev or client handoff

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• A strong portfolio full of well-crafted branding, digital design, social and campaign work
• Experience working in a fast-paced creative studio or agency
• Confident in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) and able to produce polished work efficiently
• Strong creative thinker - not just a doer, but someone who brings ideas to the table
• Detail-oriented - especially in layout, composition, and typography
• Ability to manage multiple projects at once and work to tight deadlines
• Someone who can take feedback without ego and make the work stronger
• Passion for games, football, pop culture and creative storytelling

NICE-TO-HAVES

• Bonus points if you’ve worked on football or sports brands before
• Motion graphics or video editing skills
• Illustration, 3D, or concepting experience
• Storyboarding experience
• Familiarity with tools like Trello, Slack and Google Suite
• A well-trained eye for what makes a campaign stand out visually
• Can pick up a controller and competently take part in gameplay capture sessions

WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME?

Apart from some cold, hard cash? You’ll get to work on major campaigns for top-tier clients in gaming and entertainment, focusing on work that sits right at the intersection of football, video games, and culture. You’ll be part of a small, passionate team where your ideas matter, and you’ll help shape the look of content seen by millions of fans.

WHAT ELSE SHOULD I KNOW?

Location: On-site at our Leeds city centre office

Hours: 40 hours per week. Flexible working will be available as some weekend work during the football season will be required.

Job Type: Permanent, full time

Pay: Competitive based on experience
