General
Random Studio’s Amsterdam and Paris offices are looking for a Senior Graphic Designer to join our creative team.
As a Senior Graphic Designer, you will primarily work with our Nike client. We are looking for someone with a love for typography, branding and motion graphics. Given that most of our work is spatial, you need to have a strong interest in translating your graphic and motion skills into physical and interactive spaces.
This is a senior, hands-on role. You should be comfortable taking graphic ideas through to meticulous, production-ready artwork, often within short timeframes, while also bringing a creative perspective on how graphic design can become part of the spatial experience.
Qualities we are looking for
- Someone with a sharp portfolio of typographic-based projects and a keen eye for good graphic-led animations;
- Highly experienced and hands-on, with the ability to produce detailed, production-ready artwork to a high standard and at pace;
- Comfortable using design tools such as Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop and After Effects.
- Experience with motion design (After Effects, preferably).
- Very good understanding of production for graphic elements, printed and digital.
- We are looking for someone with a love for the Nike brand. A good understanding of their ways of working is a plus.
Responsibilities
- Lead several projects for our Nike client.
- In some cases, manage junior and/or mid-level designers.
- Collaborate with team members across different disciplines to reach a holistic aesthetic.
- Design for digital products using technologies such as touch interfaces or other input devices.
- Create examples of motion design with tools such as After Effects and Figma Prototyping to hand over to developers.
- Explore how graphic design, typography and motion can translate into and interact with physical space.
- Location: Paris or Amsterdam
- Start date: ASAP
