Associate Design Director at Media.Monks

MediaMonks is hiring a brilliant and thoughtful hands–on Associate Design Director to design for the world's highest–profile brands.

What you’ll do

Translate brand values, creative concepts, UX documentation and user–stories into functional and expressive design solutions by yourself, and brief and review designers on producing these designs.
Working directly with your clients and internal teams, you’ll ensure we’re going above and beyond the original brief to push what’s possible on both a creative and technical level.
Present and substantiate the work created by you and/or your team in person or through video calls when working on pitches and proposals, or during production. You’ll create prototypes and/or animations of designs where needed to provide additional clarification.
Provide verbal and written (narrative driven) conceptual thinking and design rationale to articulate and strengthen your (and your team’s) proposals.
Have opinions and not be afraid to voice them.

Become our new Lead Designer

Working at MediaMonks means you’ll be part of a fun, successful and fast-moving company that constantly pushes the envelope when it comes to creative production. Challenges are part of the job, but so is our casual company culture. If you meet and exceed this profile, we’d love to meet you.

What you’ll bring

You are a great designer yourself and you don’t mind getting your hands dirty. You prove your visual prowess through your online portfolio and relevant working experience across the field of digital and web design. Beyond aesthetic excellence, your portfolio demonstrates exemplary presentation, research, troubleshooting and problem–solving skills.
Your unwavering curiosity never stops you from learning and progressing. You love pushing the envelope both personally and professionally.
A critical eye but you’re not critical. You understand that a combination of kudos and critique makes people want to go the extra mile.
A thorough understanding of design fundamentals such as typography, interaction design and usability, grid systems, white space, aspect ratios and color theory, tying all of these elements together with obsessive attention to detail.
You feel confident in tackling high–end projects in collaboration with colleagues and clients alike.
Mastery of all modern design and prototyping tools (Adobe CS, Sketch, Figma, Principle…). You’re tidy, and you know how to organize your files, layers and folders to make the lives of colleagues easier.
Based on your experience and expertise, you can judge on the quality of the user experience, and explain what needs to be achieved to make it better.
Mindful of your time and schedule, you are flexible and willing to put in the time and dedication needed to make each project you and your team work on a success.

Please send your resume in English and know that most interviews will be held in this language.
