We are passionate about curating just the right audience—because there’s no substitute for great chemistry. With a deep commitment to creativity and quality, we deliver experiences that feel anything but routine, while delivering tangible business results.

The role:

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Graphic Designer to join our in-house creative team and lead the development of digital and marketing assets that elevate the This is Beyond brand. This pivotal role will involve shaping and delivering graphic solutions for our events, requiring expertise in digital media, branding, and marketing campaigns. You will collaborate closely with the marketing, product, and content teams to create compelling visuals that drive engagement and conversion.

In a dynamic, collaborative environment, you will work on a variety of projects, from large-scale campaigns to smaller on-site activities, producing assets across digital, social, print, and OOH formats. You will also be involved in artwork for multiple projects, ensuring all designs adhere to marketing strategies and business objectives.

With high-level technical skills, an eye for detail, and the ability to meet tight deadlines, you will play a crucial role in supporting the Creative Team in delivering assets across marketing channels.

• Trend Analysis & UX/UI Support: Stay updated on industry trends and best practices in digital design, applying insights to enhance projects. Collaborate with web developers to optimise user interfaces and ensure a cohesive visual experience across platforms.
• Performance & Team Contribution: Demonstrates a proactive, creative approach to problem-solving, consistently meeting deadlines and efficiently completing tasks. Contributes positively to team collaboration and morale, while effectively communicating with internal stakeholders across Sales, Marketing, Operations, and other departments.
• Leadership & Development: Lead and mentor two direct reports, fostering a commitment to continuous professional development for both yourself and your team.
• Team Collaboration & Event Support: Promote a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Build strong relationships with colleagues and stakeholders to achieve event objectives. Work closely with the Project Manager to organise workflows, ensure task accuracy, and, when necessary, supervise onsite teams, fostering an inclusive environment.

What you will need:

• 7+ years in a fast-paced design or integrated agency, with at least 2 years in a senior creative role.
• Degree in design or equivalent professional experience.
• Strong portfolio showcasing work across multiple channels, including social, OOH, and digital campaigns.
• Proficient in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects a plus), Figma, and other relevant tools.
• Strong understanding of digital marketing, including SEO, email marketing, and social media advertising.
• Ability to take designs from concept to production for both digital and print.
