We are partnering with one of the most distinctive and influential names in contemporary luxury fashion to appoint a Senior Graphic Designer to its London visual team. This is a rare opportunity to help shape and evolve the visual expression of a globally recognised fashion brand. Working closely with the Head of Visual and Head of Visual Production, you will lead creative projects across brand identity, campaigns, editorial, print, digital experiences, e-commerce and physical applications.
The team is looking for a highly accomplished graphic designer with exceptional typographic judgement, layout precision and the confidence to develop creative routes independently. You will be expected to bring ideas to the table, propose considered layout options and carry work through from concept to immaculate final delivery.
The ideal candidate may have started in graphic design, visual communication or art school before moving into fashion, luxury or culture. A genuine curiosity about art, architecture, furniture, materials and the wider cultural landscape is just as important as commercial experience.
What you’ll be doing:
- Developing and executing creative concepts across branding, digital experiences, campaigns, garment graphics, printed collateral and editorial publications
- Helping maintain and evolve the brand identity across every customer-facing touchpoint
- Proposing thoughtful creative and layout directions rather than simply executing established briefs
- Defining and maintaining visual standards across digital, e-commerce and website content
- Leading projects from early research and concept development through to production and delivery
- Producing and overseeing high-quality, production-ready artwork for print and digital
- Developing visual concepts for photography, video, social content and integrated campaigns
- Supporting art direction across still-life and video shoots
- Overseeing image post-production and helping maintain consistently high visual standards
- Supporting video editing and post-production using Premiere Pro
- Collaborating with Digital, E-commerce, UX, Marketing and PR teams
- Working with photographers, developers, writers, fabricators, printers and other external creative partners
- Mentoring and supporting junior designers through constructive direction and feedback
- Managing multiple projects, deadlines and stakeholders within a fast-moving studio
- Establishing organised workflows, archives and file structures
- Researching emerging creative practices, technologies, materials and cultural references
What we’re looking for:
- Around seven or more years of relevant graphic design experience gained in-house or within an ambitious creative agency or studio
- An exceptional portfolio demonstrating conceptual thinking, typography, editorial design, layout, image-making and brand systems
- Sophisticated typographic judgement and meticulous attention to composition and typesetting
- Significant print and editorial experience, with strong knowledge of production processes
- Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, including InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop
- Working knowledge of Premiere Pro and experience contributing to video or motion projects
- The ability to prepare precise, production-ready artwork across print and digital
- Experience designing digital experiences and collaborating with developers
- Basic familiarity with Figma, with the ability to build further proficiency in the role
- Experience mentoring or guiding more junior designers
- An understanding of printers, fabricators, production partners and creative collaborators
- Strong communication, organisation and time-management skills
- The ability to maintain exceptional standards under tight deadlines
- A deep interest in contemporary fashion, photography, art, film, architecture and design culture
- Experience in luxury fashion, editorial or a culturally influential creative studio would be highly relevant. Packaging experience would be a strong advantage.
- An awareness of exhibition, spatial or environmental design is also highly desirable, particularly an interest in architecture, furniture, materials and fabrication.
- Additional skills in 3D, type design, writing or motion are beneficial but not essential.
The opportunity:
This role offers significant creative ownership within a close-knit visual team and the chance to influence how an important contemporary fashion brand is experienced across both digital and physical environments. It would suit someone who combines strong ideas with exceptional execution, enjoys operating at a high level of detail and wants to create work with genuine cultural and visual impact.
You must have the right to work in the UK. You must be able to work from the West London studio five days a week.
