Job description

About the role:

TALA, known for activewear that keeps up with busy lifestyles, has been on a rocket ship since its founding in 2019 by entrepreneur Grace Beverley. Built on largely organic socials, today we are a digital-first, multichannel women's athleisure brand with a multi-faceted growth and retention strategy, trading on impressive numbers. TALA recently opened a 2,000-square-foot, double-fronted Store on London's iconic Carnaby Street as part of our ambitious growth strategy, backed by a recent funding round.

We're looking for a Senior Graphic Designer who's passionate about design, fast on their feet, and knows how to balance craft and polish with a playful, social-first edge. You'll bring fresh ideas, sharp execution, and help shape how our brand shows up across every touchpoint.

Tasks

Day to Day you will:

• Championing TALA's visual identity across every touchpoint, from our physical stores to our digital storefront, packaging, and social channels, ensuring consistency, clarity, and impact.
• Translating brand and campaign briefs into bold, scroll-stopping creative that reflects our values: conscious design, female-led innovation, and effortless style.
• Partnering with Brand & Marketing leads to interpret briefs and turn them into standout creative
• Bringing social-first, conceptual ideas that cut through the noise
• Leading a small team of two designers, managing workflow, priorities and ensuring top-quality delivery at pace
• Balancing brand and customer needs, keeping both at the heart of every design decision
• Playing a hands-on role in shaping the next chapter of TALA's visual storytelling as we scale across new categories, channels, and communities.
• Some art direction and content creation as required

Requirements

What you will bring:

• 5+ years experience in art direction (ideally in women's fashion, lifestyle, or activewear)
• Experiencing leading and mentoring junior team members
• A broad visual vocabulary and genuine love for great design
• Strong presentation skills and ability to bring ideas to life with clarity and confidence
• Highly motivated, collaborative, and always willing to get involved with ideas
• Expertise across Adobe CS and Figma (video & AI skills is a bonus)

Benefits

What we can offer:

• A competitive salary and package
• Fun, start-up working culture including: team social events, brand collaborations, sample sales, and awards
• A sense of mission and contribution to the greater good
• Experience in a high-profile, fast-growth, VC-backed startup
• Employee discount and allowance on the best sustainable athleisure clothing in the UK
• Beautiful and bright offices in a historic building in central London (near Vauxhall) with other startups on site

About us

TALA is an activewear brand built to actively solve problems without creating new ones for people, the planet, or anyone else. Every collection prioritises functionality and thoughtful design, combining premium fabrics with multi-way versatility and flattering fits that deliver maximum impact with minimal effort. Each piece is crafted with attention to detail, ensuring women can look and feel their best with ease.

When founder Grace Beverley shifted from fast fashion to more sustainable options in her everyday clothing, she found a host of responsibly made options in every category other than activewear. Founding TALA in 2019, the proud female-led brand is on a mission to make consciously made active and off-duty styles accessible and inclusive without sacrificing performance or fit.
