Come and build
the early work.

Just Jenius is a young studio, which means the person who joins now helps set the standard rather than inherit one. If you care about typography, about why a decision was made, and about the difference between a logo and a brand system — read on.

The role

What you'll be doing

This is a hands-on design job. You will spend most of your week designing, and the rest of it thinking about what to design.

  • Design brand identity systems end to end — logotype, typography, colour, graphic language and layout — along with the guidelines that keep them coherent once they leave the studio.
  • Take those systems out into the world: packaging, print, campaign visuals, social content, presentations and websites, through to production-ready artwork.
  • Develop creative concepts and visual directions that turn an agreed strategy into something genuinely distinctive.
  • Build and look after brand asset libraries, and prepare artwork correctly for print and digital suppliers.
  • Dig into the brand, its market, its competitors and its audience — research that shapes the design rather than decorating it afterwards.
  • Run projects from first brief through concept, presentation and refinement to final delivery, working with our designers, developers and other specialists as a project needs them.

What we're looking for

  • A bachelor's degree or above in Graphic Design, Branding, Visual Communication or a closely related discipline.
  • A portfolio with real identity systems in it — not just marques, but the thinking and the applied work around them.
  • Fluency in Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop, and in Figma.
  • A proper feel for typography, layout, colour and grids, and for the practical business of getting artwork onto paper and screen correctly.
  • The confidence to present work to a client and explain why it is the way it is.
  • Excellent written and spoken English.

Nice to have

  • Packaging, editorial or motion work in your portfolio.
  • Experience of working across more than one market or cultural context.
  • Mandarin — genuinely useful given how much of our work sits between the UK and China, but not required.
  • You have worked directly with printers, fabricators and developers.

What we offer

  • 25 days’ holiday plus UK bank holidays
  • Workplace pension
  • An annual budget for conferences, courses and materials
  • A studio-based role in central London, with flexible start and finish times
  • The chance to shape how a young studio works, rather than inherit how it already does

Applying

How to apply

Send your CV and portfolio — a PDF, or a link — to info@justjenius.com, with JJ-2026-BVID-01 in the subject line. Please keep attachments under 15 MB.

Tell us which piece of work in your portfolio you're proudest of, and why. A couple of sentences is plenty — we'd rather read that than a covering letter.

Applications close on 19 March 2027, though we read them as they arrive and may close earlier if we find the right person. Everyone who applies gets an answer. If we'd like to meet you, it's an informal first conversation, then a longer portfolio session with the Creative Director.

A few practical things

  • We hire on merit, and we welcome applications from everyone. If you need anything adjusted about the process to take part properly, tell us when you apply and we'll sort it.
  • You'll need the right to work in the UK, or to be eligible for it. We check this before anyone starts.
  • We use what you send only to consider you for this role, and delete unsuccessful applications after six months — see our privacy policy, or just ask us to delete yours sooner.
  • We're hiring directly for this one, so no agencies please.
