Senior Designer (Maternity Cover)

As a Senior Graphic Designer, you’ll collaborate closely with our writers and video editors to bring films and games to life through social media, interpreting them with a distinct and compelling visual style. While our process is highly collaborative and teamwork is a key part of how we operate, you’ll also need to be motivated, and comfortable working independently on projects. Ideal candidates should have the confidence to lead projects creatively. In addition to working with internal teams, you’ll be responsible for briefing and managing freelancers, and engaging with clients when needed. We work quickly and often manage multiple projects at once, so multitasking and time management skills are a must. In a fast-paced environment such as ours, and especially in a position of seniority, a positive attitude goes a long way. Last-minute requests from clients and tight turnarounds means we have to stay agile - so expect the unexpected. Whilst this role supports multiple projects and styles, a genuine love of the movies and games, and an understanding of fandom would be advantageous. Furthermore, successful candidates will have an excellent understanding of the responsibilities and restrictions inherent in working with prestigious global brands. Here at Reach, we believe everyone in our team should be proud of the work they’re doing - and we always do our best no matter the scope of the project.
