Wordsearch is a global branding agency that creates places and tells their stories. We articulate vision, define purpose, and build brands that bring developments to life. With 6 studios worldwide, we collaborate across disciplines and borders to deliver some of the industry’s most ambitious and influential placemaking, destination, and real estate branding projects.

• A thoughtful approach to feedback, knowing when to challenge it, when to embrace it, and how to build on it.
• A long‑term view of brand health, not just the next deliverable.
  A steady eye for quality and consistency, regardless of format, scale, or deadline.
• Strong critical thinking and problem‑solving skills. You don’t just tick boxes or wait for direction, you take initiative and make things happen.
• Practical experience working with printers, suppliers, developers, and production partners to ensure ideas are delivered as intended.
• Embrace AI tools as part of the creative process, from ideation to execution.
• A calm, honest, and reliable presence, with the heart, humour, and hustle that makes the studio a better place for everyone.

About you:

• A strong portfolio that demonstrates creative thinking and exceptional design craft.
• 4+ years of experience within a branding agency or design studio.
• Experience developing brand concepts from strategy through execution and activation.
• Ability to manage multiple projects and adapt to evolving briefs and priorities.
• A commitment to producing high-quality, creative, and distinctive work and pitches.
• Proficiency in Figma, Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign.
• Experience in UI/UX design, motion graphics, and/or 3D design is a strong advantage.
• Chinese language proficiency and confidence designing in Chinese is a plus.
