We’re Hiring: Designer

Become part of the Shine family as our new Designer!

We’re Shine – an independent design and branding studio with a 25-year heritage, big ambitions and a small, brilliant team. One of our designers is off to travel the world, so we’re on the lookout for someone seasoned, skilled and genuinely committed to great work.

We’re not after a rockstar, just someone who knows their craft, shows up, gets stuck in, and gives a damn.

We’re looking for someone who’s been around the block, learned a few lessons the hard way, and still loves the buzz of a busy studio. You’ll be joining a team of designers, an all-too-smart copywriter, one of those digital types that somehow understands what coding is about, a technical animator, a hyper organised account lead, and a business owner who obsesses over client satisfaction and the importance of creative storytelling. We’re a tight team – no ego, no hierarchy – just shared standards.

What you’ll need:

  • 10+ years of agency experience (minimum)
  • A solid, adaptable portfolio: branding, campaigns, digital, print, social – you’ve tackled it all
  • Comfort with the entire creative process, and not precious about what aspects you’re asked to handle
  • A storyteller’s eye and the instinct to push good work to great
  • You get the balance between beauty and purpose – and know how to deliver both
  • To be able to work independently and self-sufficiently without the need for micromanagement  

What you’ll get:

  • A seat in a beautiful barn studio in Hartley Wintney – duck pond, pub and cricket green included
  • Proper projects across logistics, conservation, tech, retail and more
  • The chance to make great work, with good people, for clients that trust us
  • Office-based culture, with WFH Fridays to balance it out
  • A fair, grown-up workplace where hard work = shared reward

If this sounds like your kind of work environment, we’d love to hear from you. Send your CV, portfolio and an introductory note to hello@shinecreative.co.uk to apply today!
