SENIOR DESIGNER - (FTC Six month fixed - with possible extension)
At Blacklist, we're looking for a talented creative to spearhead design work for one of our biggest European clients. Whether you're already a Senior Designer or a confident Design Middleweight looking to step up, we want to hear from you. This is a hands-on, multi-disciplinary role where you'll bring ideas to life across high-impact print, digital, and experiential projects, with motion graphics as a welcome bonus skill.
You'll be driving the development of out-of-home print campaigns, digital out-of-home assets, social content, and dynamic digital banners, as well as conceptualising innovative experiential activities that engage audiences and amplify our client's brand.
This role starts fully remote, transitioning into a hybrid position after a couple of months - splitting your time between home and our London studio. Salary will depend on experience.

WHAT YOU'RE HERE TO DO

• Lead the design and execution of compelling out-of-home print campaigns that align with brand standards and marketing objectives.
• Develop and implement digital out-of-home and digital banners that engage and drive brand recognition.
• Conceptualise and design experiential activations, translating the brand into immersive, memorable experiences.
• Create and roll out branding updates and refreshes, working closely with the client throughout every stage of the campaign.
• Present ideas and creative concepts confidently to high-level clients.
• Maintain a consistent and high-quality visual identity across all design outputs.
• Act as a brand guardian, ensuring everything feels cohesive and on-brand.
• Collaborate with marketing and brand teams to understand objectives and deliver outstanding creative work.
• Keep up to date with industry trends, emerging technologies, and design best practices to push creative boundaries.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

• Proven experience as a Senior Designer, or a confident Midweight ready for their next challenge.
• Strong portfolio showing expertise in print and digital design; motion graphics skills (After Effects) are a plus, not a must.
• Comfortable presenting and pitching ideas to stakeholders.
• Proficiency with Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, plus bonus points for After Effects and Premiere).
• Strong conceptual thinking and the ability to develop innovative design solutions.
• Great communication and collaboration skills; able to work with internal teams, freelancers, and clients.
• Passion for storytelling and conveying brand narratives through design.
• Degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communication, or related field is preferred but not essential.
• Most importantly - a great attitude, a collaborative spirit, and a good sense of humour.

WHAT WE OFFER IN RETURN

• 28 days holiday plus bank holidays.
• A hybrid working environment, with weekly half-day team meet-ups for breakfast, brunch, or lunch.
• Pension scheme in line with statutory requirements (employer contribution 3%, employee contribution minimum 5%).
• Reports to: Art Director
• Department: Creative & Design
