Job description

About the Role

We’re looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Junior Designer to join our creative team.

This role is ideal for someone early in their design career who’s eager to learn, collaborate, and grow in a fast-paced environment.

You’ll work alongside experienced designers, product thinkers, and brand strategists to bring ideas to life – whether that’s creating visuals for social media, refining UI layouts, or contributing to brand and product design systems.

What You’ll Do

• Collaborate with senior designers and creative leads on design projects.
• Support the creation of brand and marketing assets across digital platforms.
• Contribute to design systems, visual libraries, and reusable components.
• Participate in brainstorms, design critiques, and collaborative workshops.
• Assist in preparing mockups, presentations, and case studies.
• Continuously explore new design tools, trends, and techniques to enhance your craft.

Requirements

Who You Are

• You’re curious, adaptable, and hungry to grow.
• You’re not afraid to ask questions, take feedback, or iterate on your work.
• You might still be learning, but you care deeply about design craft, storytelling, and impact.
• Have a strong foundation in Figma and/or Adobe Creative Suite.
• Understand the basics of layout, hierarchy, colour, and typography.
• Are comfortable taking feedback and collaborating in a team setting.
• Are self‑motivated, proactive, and take ownership of your work.
• Have a portfolio that demonstrates your process and design thinking.

Benefits

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Mentorship from senior designers and access to structured learning sessions.
• Real‑world projects that build your confidence and portfolio.
• A creative, inclusive environment that values growth and experimentation.
• Opportunities to contribute ideas, not just execute them.
• Hybrid / remote flexibility depending on your location.
