Role Overview
*Please note: this Senior Graphic Designer role is maternity cover and will be a nine-month fixed-term contract.
Joining as a Senior Graphic Designer, you will lead and motivate a team of two designers to deliver a challenging schedule of design and creative projects.
The team sits within the wider marketing team but is a key enabler and support to a multitude of stakeholders, functional areas, five distinct audiences/communities (customers, TCs, colleagues, suppliers, clients) and the overall brand, so an audience-centric approach is essential.
Key Accountabilities
* People management and development
* Creative concept development
* Co-creative direction of brand photography and video
* Project, workflow, and process management
* Agency and freelancer briefing and management, as required
* Creation and supervision of the production of high-quality artwork, assets templates, and materials across a variety of digital and print channels, including digital publishing platform templates and video
* Event branding – supporting the events team in producing collateral, event materials, and theming.
* Defining asset and artwork management processes
About You
The marketing team is going through a growth period, and we’re looking for someone with significant experience in a design or creative leadership role managing teams and workflows to deliver exceptional, timely results.
You will be accustomed to working collaboratively with a small, busy team. This is a hands-on role that will require you to personally prepare high-quality design work across multiple channels, both digital and print, alongside the wider team and project management. You’ll bring creative flair, strong organisational and interpersonal skills, and a great eye for detail.
As with every management role at Travel Counsellors, you will look for ways to drive efficiencies and improvements and won’t be fazed by shifting priorities and the need to respond quickly yet creatively to market conditions. B2C and B2B experience is welcomed; experience designing for a premium brand would be an advantage.
