Your mission
We're looking for a curious, collaborative and creative, Senior UI / Visual Designer with an impeccable eye for beauty to join our independent design agency in Shoreditch.
As a Senior Designer, you’ll help define the future of our digital output, shaping remarkable experiences for brands across sectors like tech, healthcare, wellness, and automotive. You'll lead visual design excellence across platforms, from beautiful UI systems to emotionally engaging motion design and 3D prototypes. You’ll mentor others, influence the creative direction, and collaborate with some of the world's best designers, developers, anthropologists, strategists, and engineers.
Oh, and you'll make work that pushes boundaries, challenges perceptions, and - occasionally - changes the world.
Your profile
We won't insult you with a spiel about proficiency using Figma, Miro, and Adobe Creative Suite. That's a given. Instead, here's an idea of the sort of Senior UI / Visual Designer we hope is reading this:
- Experienced & Agency-Tested: You’ve honed your skills in a fast-paced, creative agency environment, where you’ve delivered high-impact work across a range of industries.
- ID Background Welcome: Your industrial design (ID) background brings unique dimensional thinking to screen-based experiences.
- Cross-Disciplinary Fluent: You understand 3D, motion, and storytelling – bridging the gap between tactile and digital.
- Visionary Thinker: You bring creative thinking and technological curiosity to every challenge. You push what’s possible and influence others to do the same.
- Leadership & Collaboration: You guide more junior designers while collaborating across disciplines in our Shoreditch studio.
- Craft-Led: You're obsessive about typography, hierarchy, layout, and interaction, with an eye for flawless visual execution.
- Adaptable: We're not afraid to scrap an idea. Sometimes, we build it, test it, and start again. If this doesn't fill you with dread, you'll make the work of your life at Native.
- Fun: We're not asking for stand-up comedy routines, but a passion for what you do is essential. We believe the best creatives genuinely enjoy their work.
Why us?
Yes, there's complimentary breakfast and plenty of snacks, but that's not all we have to offer. Here's what you can expect from us:
- Competitive Pay: Fair, reliable, and competitive. You also get a generous pension scheme, which you should definitely make the most of.
- Paid Holidays: 25 days of annual leave plus bank holidays. And yes, we expect you to take them all.
- Parental Leave: Enhanced maternity and paternity pay. We want to support new mums and dads, not add stress.
- Health Insurance: Bupa provides private medical insurance, including 24/7 access to GPs, nurses, mental health care, and menopause support.
- Gym Membership: Get 40% off the Hussle Gym network and with provider YuLife you’ll have access to mindfulness and fitness apps, plus the chance to join company-wide challenges where your competitive streak can earn you extra redeemable rewards.
- Personal Development: You'll get loads of in-house opportunities for development and training. We also love a trip to the museum, the odd industry talk, and inviting big thinkers in for fika.
- Company Socials: We throw a couple of big bashes a year and might occasionally block out the afternoon to take a pottery class or be beside the seaside.
- Complimentary Breakfast: There's toast, snacks, cereal and a pretty swanky coffee machine at your disposal. And yes, there's vegan butter, lactose-free milk, and gluten-free bread. We got you.
- Sweet Location: Shoreditch is easy to get to, has loads of good places to eat, and plenty of independent shops and market stalls. We love it here.
- Independent Studio: Native is one of the last proper indie studios in the East End. We've been here for twenty years, and we won't be selling up, or selling out, anytime soon.
