Junior Designer

For a quarter of a century, the Jellycat family have brought joy, wonder and playful fun to people of all ages, in every part of the world. Utterly original and in a class of their own, they are currently among the most loved and collected toys of their kind. How has this gentle tribe endeared themselves to so many? Perhaps it is their whimsical expressions. Or the deliciously soft fabrics. Or the beautiful way in which they sit in your hand. Whatever it is, there is something magical and unmistakeable about each one of them.

This is an exciting role for someone who wants to be part of our expanding creative team, as we develop and refine our high-end creative output.

The Junior Designer will play an important supporting role in shaping Jellycat’s creative marketing. With a strong focus on digital assets for campaigns, this role involves designing engaging and consistent outputs across web, email, and digital advertising.

You’ll work collaboratively with senior designers and copywriters to bring the brand to life online - gaining experience across multiple platforms and helping deliver creative projects that align with Jellycat’s joyful identity.

This is a fast-paced role and the successful candidate will need to be adept at juggling multiple projects and ad-hoc requests with ease (and a smile). A friendly team player, you’re always open to feedback (crucial – there is a lot ) and come to brainstorms brimming with ideas. Equally, you should feel comfortable working on your own, managing your time efficiently.
