We're looking for a Senior Designer who turns sharp thinking into jaw-dropping creative, someone who sees what's next before the world does—and brings it to life with craft, conviction, and cultural edge.

At Bulletproof London, you'll shape brands people love (and envy) across the globe. You'll be part of a creative force that thrives on breaking norms—an independent powerhouse of 400 minds, and one obsession: creating desire through disruption. This isn't about following briefs; it's about redefining them. You'll push craft, lift ideas, guide others, and spark change from the inside out—all while surrounded by a team that backs bold moves and real collaboration.

This is where ambition meets opportunity. If you've got the hunger, we've got the stage.
