Description
The key roles of a senior designer entail supporting the art director from both a creative and administrative perspective, managing large projects across multiple mediums and mentoring junior staff. Similar to an art director the senior designer serves as a single point of contact for the client, which helps to minimize design dilution and maintain a consistent visual approach within the design options. Senior designers also mentor and support the junior team members through project development and performance management.
The Senior Designer will also assist the Information Design team in determining the structure, flow and overall user experience. This is a senior level staff position and is an excellent opportunity for the right person - offering unrivaled opportunities and a chance to work and grow with an established and well-known leader in the region.
Along with your resume please send a cover letter and a link to your portfolio or samples of your work.
Experience with creative leadership focusing on cross mediums is beneficial to this position. A senior designer must possess strong communication skills with the ability to articulate both visual and interactive direction to both client and internal staff. An understanding of brand development and enhancement is also beneficial for this role.
