Junior Designer - Boxed Red, Knutsford Cheshire

Junior Designer 

Boxed Red is a full-service marketing agency with a strong client list specialising in leisure & tourism and property & construction, but we service a wide range of clients across multiple sectors. We understand the work/life balance and are all driven individuals with an unrivalled enthusiasm and passion for what we do.

We are looking for a talented graduate with an insatiable love for design and a strong portfolio to join our team. The perfect candidate will be expressive, bursting with fresh ideas and have a good grasp of working commercially.

If this sounds like you, we have a great opportunity for you to work with other talented creatives and develop your skill set while you work on live briefs for our fantastic clients.

We are not looking for a brew maker but for someone who wants to challenge themselves in a fun and relaxed environment while growing as a creative designer.

You will be working on an array of conceptual work from branding and printed material to design for digital and will have the chance to work on briefs from initial conception through to implementation and delivery, so an understanding of production methods is advantageous.

We would require that you not only have great ideas but also good technical skills when it comes Adobe Creative Suite. In particular InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop.

Good banter, a great taste in music and the willingness to laugh (often at rubbish jokes) are also important traits but not essential.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

Support the creative team to deliver high quality client work
Assist in creating and preparing for pitches
Maintain the brand image of Boxed Red through preparation of web content and printed materials
Participate in generating ideas with the team
Develop a strong understanding of artworking and production methods

Qualified to degree level in a relevant subject

Proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, particularly InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop
The ability to work independently on a creative brief
