Job Details

​

• Job Type: Full-time 6-month contract with the potential to become permanent.
• Salary: £40-50k pro rata.
• Start date: Immediate

​

Summary

​

We’re looking for a positive, proactive and ambitious Senior Digital Designer to join the Crown and Co. team. You might be an experienced senior designer or a middle-weight designer looking for your next challenge. Either way, you can lead digital marketing projects from concept to final delivery, whether it’s a website, seasonal campaign or digital ads – primarily for clients in the fintech space.

This role will start as a fixed-term position and after six months could turn into a full-time position if the fit is right.

​

Skills and Experience

​

• You have a strong portfolio and 5 years of experience across various projects in an agency environment.
• We’re especially keen to see what you’ve done across digital marketing (e.g. websites, ad campaigns and social) as this will form the majority of your work.
• You can develop high-quality visual designs with a keen eye for typography, accessibility, colour theory, grid systems and knowledge of user interface approaches across a range of digital platforms including responsive web and app.
• You’re a strong communicator and can clearly articulate your design thinking and process with robust rationale for your design decisions.
• You can be both tactical and strategic with an ability to think through business objectives, technical implications, and users’ needs to create smart, cost-effective solutions.
• You’re a creative problem solver, you push boundaries, and you are an ambitious and exciting designer.
• You can build rapport with clients and will be comfortable working closely with our client’s marketing, design, and product teams.
• You can self-manage projects and deliver within the constraints of deadlines – you know when it’s time to stop iterating, make a decision, and ship it.
• You’re a good team player and people enjoy working with you, but you can also work autonomously.
• You have a strong ‘care factor’ – you put a layer of empathy and care on top of everything you do.

​

Tools and Workplace

​

• You’re a Figma and Adobe CC pro.
• You explore new tools and ways of executing work.
• Video/animation skills would be handy but it’s not a deal-breaker.
• Our hybrid team works between our East London studio (3 days per week) and home.
