• Content + digital curiosity — interested in motion, screens, social and emerging creative tools.
• Amazing communications skills and a passion for creativity and sharing ideas.
• Excellent hands- on design and artwork capabilities with impeccable attention to detail.
• Excellent skills across the Adobe Creative Cloud particularly Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign. Experience with After Effects, Figma or other motion/content tools would be a real advantage. SketchUp or other 3D experience would be a bonus
• A fast, accurate and disciplined designer.
• A great team player someone who is highly collaborative and enjoys contributing ideas and getting stuck in at pitch/concept stages.
