About the Role

We are seeking a skilled Senior Designer to join our growing team. This role is perfect for someone who thrives on variety, moving seamlessly across touchpoints-from digital and motion to in-store, print, and experiential. You'll collaborate with strategists, researchers, and creatives to uncover opportunities, solve design challenges, and push creative boundaries.

As a Senior Designer, you will bring a sharp creative eye, an ability to translate strategy into engaging design, and the confidence to present and defend your work to both clients and internal stakeholders. You'll also play a key role in mentoring junior talent, helping to elevate the overall creative output of the team.

What You'll Do

• Partner with strategists, creatives, and client teams to deliver integrated design solutions that feel cohesive and purposeful.
• Design across a range of platforms and channels-digital, motion, print, retail, and experiential-ensuring each execution aligns with brand identity and strategy.
• Generate fresh, original ideas that bring energy and impact to customer experiences.
• Present design concepts and rationale with clarity and confidence to clients and colleagues alike.
• Keep pace with cultural trends, design innovations, and new technologies, using them to inspire and evolve your work.
• Provide guidance and mentorship to junior designers, supporting their growth and helping raise creative standards across the team.

What You'll Need

• 5+ years of experience in a creative agency, in-house studio, or customer experience-driven environment.
• A portfolio that demonstrates exceptional craft in visual design, with strong work in branding, digital, and motion. (UI/UX skills are a bonus.)
• Ability to deliver work that combines strong conceptual thinking with commercial impact.
• Proficiency in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, and other standard design tools.
• Experience designing for multiple touchpoints, from digital products and campaigns to experiential and print (artworking ability is helpful but not essential).
• Confidence in presenting work, articulating design rationale, and taking ownership of projects from start to finish.

At Ogilvy, our people are at the heart of what we do: a creative agency that sparks game-changing ideas across culture and business through collaboration, integrity, and a celebration of self-expression.
