Brandbuilders is hiring : Creative | Art Director in Independence

Do you know FrieslandCampina, Arriva, Bar-le-Duc or Verkade? Great! Then you probably already know our work. Besides finding our work a lot in supermarkets, you may also come across our work in digital campaigns, in public (DOOH) or on TV. Nice work, with the power of a good idea. Because that sells. And that’s what our clients want.

We are looking for a designer with ambition. Whether you’re mid-career or senior, it doesn’t matter, as long as you have ambition. Someone who is eager to learn and not afraid to push boundaries. Be it packaging, point-of-sale, a new identity or an eye-catching digital campaign.

You enjoy working in a young team and in an environment with lots of laughter. Furthermore, you have a graphic design degree and ideally some professional experience, in an agency or elsewhere. You don’t have all that, but are still enthusiastic? And you do a lot of design in your spare time? Don’t hesitate to send us a message.

Here, you’ll never sit still. You will work on many diverse projects. Some bigger than others. Sometimes you’ll work alone, but usually together with several colleagues. That is both fun and educational. Variety is guaranteed!

Want to improve your skills in certain areas? We encourage that! Tell us what you need and we will find a way to get it done.

This is how a day unfolds

Yesterday, you completed many projects. For example, you outlined an activation for Campina and drafted a photography brief for Bar-le-Duc. Today, new projects await you. But first, coffee! Or tea. And a chat, of course.

Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important topic among our clients. So too for our client Arturo. They have asked for a concept so they can tell their story about sustainability in an easy and fun way. Barry and Floris have developed an idea as well as some visual style guidelines. It looks cool! It’s up to you to spend most of your day exploring this style further. How can we make it our own? You get started behind your Mac. But soon, you are cutting and pasting. It’s a nice change of pace, as you don’t often do that nowadays. The style calls for a manual touch to showcase the client’s pure and transparent process. How cool it’ll turn out!

In the afternoon, it’s time for something completely different. Together with Vivianne and Inge, you will plot new directions for a cheese brand. Together with Floris, you first need to work out what these directions are. What is important for the brand, what different directions can we envision? The directions are divided and you get to work on one of them. Find inspiration, sketch on paper, consult and go!

Well, that went fast. You take a peek at your schedule. Tomorrow has something else entirely in store for you. Boosting the visibility of a new Verkade chocolate bar on store shelves at Jumbo. Hmmmm… can you get taste it yourself? You pop by Marije, project manager for this project. And yes… there is a box full of chocolate
