• A strong communicator who enjoys working collaboratively and asking questions to get the best outcome
• Open to feedback, with a positive attitude and a willingness to continuously improve your skills

You’ll have a good understanding of design fundamentals and an awareness of current design trends, along with a portfolio that shows your potential across a range of formats.

This role is a fantastic opportunity to develop your creative and technical skills while working on meaningful projects that make a real impact. You’ll be working within a collaborative team that values creativity, innovation and continuous learning.
