Head of Design

London, Greater London, United Kingdom FAIRFIELD INN & SUITES OF SLC AIRPORT Full time

We are Wiser, an award-winning Employer Branding & Early Talent agency. We build employer brands to guide the best in the biz into their dream career with our clients.

We're a home for people who think big and expect more; where creative and recruitment meet to change the way people think about work — not to mention having the only rainforest in Farringdon.

Our creatives use design, product, film, strategy and marketing to capture what makes companies great and showcase it in the market. Our recruitment teams introduce the right people at the beginning of their career to set these companies apart.

We believe that people will do their best work when they're in a space that enables it. And that's what we've shaped at Wiser — a culture where everyone can be real and back themselves, surrounded by high performers who take ownership of their career and make moves, no matter what their background.

To find out more about us, take a look at our website or check us out on Instagram @wearewiser.

ROLE

We're looking for a Head of Design to lead our team of talented designers and set an industry leading standard for creative work across the agency. We've been building our design function and we now have 5 incredible, multidisciplinary designers ranging from junior to senior levels. They flex across all our global brands, delivering creative across a range of mediums and formats from visual identities, motion graphics, on-boarding materials and presentations.We need someone to come in to lead the charge, managing and coaching the team, bringing new techniques and creative thinking into the mix, driving ideation, concept development, art direction and presenting to clients.

WHAT WILL YOU SPEND YOUR TIME DOING?

  • You'll be the centre of all things design at Wiser - developing the team and representing us to our clients
  • The role will be a combination of being a brilliant manager managing and mentoring the team to the team, but also being a brilliant designer yourself. We'd love someone who's as happy building visual identity moodboards for a client as they would be coaching a junior designer
  • You'll set the bar for our creative across the board - working with the Films team to make sure our visuals translate into video work, and our Product team to make our websites are as beautiful as our brand guideline

QUALIFICATIONS
  • 6+ years design agency experience
  • Experience managing a team - the current setup has 5 designers, and we're looking to grow more in the next year so people management experience is a must
  • Ability to flex across a range of different clients - we work with some of the most creative brands (hello Depop, ASOS, Brewdog) but also a lot of the big corporates, so you need to be cosy switching between them all and delivering thoughtful design to suit.

OUR VALUES:

At Wiser, we're building a culture rather than a company. Every strong culture starts with realistic values that everyone can believe in. We use ours to guide everything we do:

  • Be Real. Be yourself when everyone's watching, there's no shame here.
  • Back Yourself. Believe in your own abilities – confidence is contagious.
  • Take Ownership. Take it, make it yours, and be proud of it.
  • Make Moves. Use your initiative and act with purpose for everyone's gain.
  • Expect More. Push your potential and inspire excellence in others.


BENEFITS:

  • A high performance company culture that will help you to progress quickly and thrive.
  • The chance to develop and work in a fast growing company, with regular check-ins with your manager and a structured goal system.
  • Regular events and socials to keep everyone engaged and level up our cross-team collaborations.
  • Breakfast provided in our award-winning* HQ in Farringdon, central London (yep, our office won an interior design award).
  • Amazing support from our Happiness team and Culture Council who keep our happiness and wellbeing at the top of the agenda.
  • Kitted out with a full suite of Apple goodies and any additional tech you may need, with our very own in-house Apple Genius.
  • An office environment and team dynamic that will bring the very best out of you.
  • Additional wellness support in the form of our performance coach, therapy budget and vitality health insurance.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU:

You will have the chance and encouragement to take, own and shape your own team of the best talent in the business. This is a golden opportunity to use your expertise to make your mark on a growing company.

THE ROAD TO WISER...
  1. Apply (Go on... do it)
  2. Intro call with Talent Team
  3. Video call withHiring Manager
  4. Tour of the Gaff & a task
  5. Final
Our promise to talent is that we'll change the way you think about work. We don't want to swap our brain points for money and stress — we know there's more to work than siloes and circling back. If you want to make work that won't be forgotten, in an environment where happiness matters just as much as high performance, apply now.
