Major Players is hiring for a Mid-to-Senior Creative Brand Designer / Design Lead for a sustainable athletic brand in London.

• Campaign creative across channels
• Email design, working within Klaviyo
• Website design work, within a modular Shopify build
• Product packaging and print collateral, including PR boxes
• Taking a brief and elevating it rather than simply executing
• Working with a good understanding of platform and production constraints

Required Skills

• 4+ years' design experience at midweight to senior level
• Strong Adobe Suite skills across the full range of outputs above
• A creative eye with art direction instinct, able to interpret a brief and offer an opinion, not just replicate a reference

• Comfortable working with autonomy and light direction

Ideal Experience

• A connection to athletics, personally or professionally
• Experience in small teams and environments with fast-turnaround
• UX/UI experience, motion and animations are nice-to-haves
