We are hiring: Art Director

We are looking for an Art Director.

What is the difference between a graphic designer and an art director, you may ask. Experience, confidence, open-mindedness and vision, perhaps?

Brand Manual is one of the leading service design and branding agencies in Estonia. We can honestly say, that we’ve worked with every type of client from beer to medical services. The best thing though, is that our clients are getting bigger and work is getting more and more challenging. We use service design to create concepts, services and brands that are easy to use and fall in love with. Your art direction will play a big role in making all the bits and pieces work together.

You’ll never work alone.

You’ll have a whole team at your disposal – strategists and team leads on one side and graphic designers on the other. Together we will help our clients overcome their challenges and deliver tangible results through research, strategy and great execution. You’ll be able to work directly with our clients – business owners and actual decision makers.

Take the first step.

Please don’t be shy and share your portfolio with us. Especially your projects on branding and graphic identity development – symbols, patterns, typefaces, interior, packaging or other everyday applications, environments and carriers based on the identity systems you have helped to design.

You’ll fit in perfectly if you:

• have worked as a senior graphic designer / AD in an agency
• need a change of environment and some professional growth
• want to continue creating strong brand identity concepts
• are ready to share your talent and learn a lot in the process
• are fluent in Mac and Adobe
• speak good English (Estonian and other languages are nice to have)
• live in Tallinn, because that’s where most of the magic happens.

We have plenty to offer in return:

• a comfy Kalamaja office with all the tools you need
• great company of international talents to work with
• flexible working hours and a competitive salary
• legendary movie nights, events and spontaneous chill
• sports allowance, health days, glasses compensation and dogs in the office
• a unique experience of combining strategic service design with branding
• opportunity to teach us new tricks and grow professionally yourself.

Please send your portfolio, favourite playlist and other thoughts to jobs@thebrandmanual.com and let’s have a chat. Feel free to write in Estonian or English – whichever is more suitable and comfortable for you. Confidentiality guaranteed.
