We’re on the hunt for a Mid-weight Digital Designer with a strong eye for design, a creative mind and a good understanding of user experience - someone who lives and breathes design, and knows how to turn great ideas into beautiful, bespoke websites and branding.

What’s in it for me:

• Work with a friendly, forward-thinking team in modern Reading offices (a short walk from the main station, lots of cafes, right in the town centre).

• Exciting client portfolio across various market sectors, from award-winning London media agencies to UK-wide business startups.
• A creative culture where quality, innovation, and personality matter.
• Competitive salary and the chance to grow your skills and influence within a rapidly evolving digital agency.

Key Responsibilities of the Digital Designer:

• Collaborate with other designers and the Head of Design to deliver brand-led web design projects, from initial concepts through to final delivery.
• Create stunning, user-focused digital designs using Adobe Creative Suite and Figma.
• Produce UX deliverables such as page wireframes, user flows, and interactive design prototypes to bring ideas to life.
• Ensure web designs align with best practices in UX/UI, accessibility, and responsive web design.
• Collaborate closely with developers to ensure design fidelity and pixel-perfect delivery.
• Contribute to branding and brand strategy projects, to craft distinctive visual identities, brand assets, and brand guidelines.
• Work on a variety of other design-related projects, including brand guidelines, video production, print materials, and other marketing collateral.

What We’re Looking For:

• Minimum 3+ years’ professional experience as a digital designer, either in-house or within a design agency. 4-5 years of experience would be ideal.
• Strong proficiency with Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, XD) and Figma.
• A solid understanding of UX/UI principles, wireframing, and general web design best practices.
• A keen eye for design, typography, and composition, with the ability to translate brand strategy into compelling designs and visuals.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills - you need to enjoy working as part of a team and contributing with your ideas.
• Be able to provide a portfolio of current website design work, plus a range of other design material or projects.
