Junior Designer (Coley Porter Bell)

Our story

Coley Porter Bell is global brand agency based in London and New York using strategy, creativity, and design to build immersive brands. For almost 45 years, we have partnered with some of the world’s biggest companies, including Formula 1, LEGO, Ferrero Group, The Coco Cola Company, Post Office, Muller, Premier Foods, Tesco, and Boots.

We enjoy the best of both worlds: we’re the perfect balance of big and small. We attract our own clients as a nimble group of about 40 people, whilst also being a part of WPP, the largest branding and advertising network in the world. We are a friendly, down-to-earth team – backed by the creativity, resources, and influence of a global network.

What we’re looking for

A Junior Designer with a passion for branding and packaging to join our creative team. You’ll be a highly creative individual with a keen eye for detail and a desire to learn and grow within an agency environment. You’ll be supporting our Midweight and Senior Designers in bringing brand identities to life, contributing to the development of compelling designs for our FMCG/Packaging clients. We’re looking for someone with an understanding of brand development, from initial concepts to finished artwork, and an eagerness to expand their knowledge of brand identity systems.

How we’ve created brand identities in the past is not enough to meet the demands of today. Immersive Branding goes beyond 2D visual design and includes visual, sound, touch, sensory and behaviour – and we’re looking for a creative who can connect these sensory expressions together and create holistic, original brand experiences.

What you’ll do

• As part of our creative team, support Design Directors and fellow Designers to come up with innovative creative solutions that support client goals.
• Conduct conceptual exploration, coming up with alternative design solutions to ensure no stone is left unturned.
• Evaluate design options, develop and push to find ‘big ideas’ based on design strategy and creative brief.
• Evaluate and develop competitive and breakthrough design strategies and plans.
• Partner and interact with internal teams and clients to showcase your passion for creative excellence, branding, packaging, motion and visual communication.

What you’ll need

• Eagerness to breakthrough into the brand and design world.
• Outstanding Adobe Creative Suite skills, Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.
• A thirst and knowledge for how digital and new tech can be purposefully embedded into brand stories.
• An impressive portfolio, demonstrating work with a track record of creative idea generation and development.
• Current creative and design trend knowledge and skills.
