Description

Job Summary

We’re recruiting a Senior Graphic Designer to join our in-house creative team on a fixed-term contract.

Job Description

We're looking for a graphic design expert who can fulfil a brief from concept to execution, with some specialist skills in digital and motion. You'll collaborate with other designers, writers, UX experts, and the wider marketing team to create impactful and original work that engages National Trust audiences.

This is a fixed term contract due to end when the postholder returns to the role. At this point we can't confirm exactly how long this contract will last, but it's unlikely to be more than 12-months.

Internally, you'll be known as Senior Designer.

We'd love to find out more about you and your creativity, therefore, please include a portfolio of your work with your application.

What it's like to work here

The National Trust protects special places, so that people and nature can thrive. At the forefront of our marketing work is the internal creative team, who help shape and deliver brand communications that are meaningful and memorable. Our work is varied, from immersive experiences to fundraising campaigns.

As this is a national role, there's flexibility on your contractual place of work. Our hybrid working policy means you can balance office and home working with site visits and meetings at other National Trust places. We'll talk about this in more detail at interview, but you should expect to be at a National Trust site for 40-60% of your working week.

Job Requirements

Who we're looking for

  • creatively brave, with technical expertise across print and digital design
  • proven ability to craft compelling, audience-focused visual storytelling, including motion design
  • experience with delivering thoughtful, innovative design solutions across channels
  • collaborative team player, confident working with creatives and stakeholders alike
  • supportive leader, committed to nurturing and inspiring junior team members
  • knowledgeable of trends and best practice across the charity and not-for-profit sector
  • dedicated to inclusive design that connects with and reflects diverse audiences

Job Responsibilities

What you'll be doing

Reporting to the Design Lead, you'll play a leading role in the Trust's in-house creative team. You'll be responsible for crafting innovative online and offline design solutions, specialising in motion design and digital experiences. You'll have the opportunity to work for different business areas including fundraising, commercial, membership, visitor experience and more.

You can view the full role profile for this role in the document attached. You don't need to have all the knowledge, skills and experience listed in the role profile; this is just to provide a full picture of what's possible in this role.
