The speed read:
A chance to finely tune your project and account management skills, working closely with a revered design leader in a small team (within a larger set up).
The facts:
You will love this role if you like the challenge of the completeness of running a small design team. You get to feel like you're running a small business (because you will be!), so you will have an unenviable skill set the other side of this contract.
You get to work cheek by jowl with a design leader and day to day you run from the granular to the big picture, and you have a love of both.
There's a strong functional day to day element of the role: making sure that the small team of designers are moving the brand identity projects along well and that they have the support they need; assessing and preparing scopes of work for incoming branding projects; upwardly managing the needs of a busy design leader; demonstrating high financial literacy with the FD.
There will be 4-5 projects on the go at any one time and the clients cross sectors. It really is a case of no job is too big or too small and you get to be a caretaker and gatekeeper.
You'll have:
* An authentic love of graphic design
* Around 7+ years account and project management experience, agency side.
* Great social and listening skills
* An 'I've got that covered' mentality
You'll be:
* A master juggler
* Unflappable
* The best of listeners
* A natural eye for detail (nothing gets past you).
Hybrid working. Contract circa 12 - 14 months.
