Summary:

We’re looking for you - a talented and passionate Designer/Developer to round-out the existing Design department. It’s a small department that answers directly to the Managing Director, but as such you’ll have a lot of room to move quickly and initiate projects / make decisions. This position needs someone who can adapt hour-by-hour, and requires a wide range of skills, pulling on a needed wealth of experience. Telepathy is a plus; Telekinesis might freak us out. The ideal candidate will revel in solving problems, taking on challenges, and can quote The Goonies verbatim. You’ll be spending long hours in close quarters with the Head Of Design, so being a rad human being is important. To be honest, when is being a rad human NOT important?

You’ve been at this for a while, and you know that Design is absolutely the right career for you. The only problem is when you’re not working, you watch A LOT of movies, and have always wondered if there was a place for a Designer like you in the film finance industry. I mean, you take great pride in crafting awesome solutions for web, print, & business collateral, right? It’s just that you haven’t found somewhere that lets you sink your teeth in to almost all aspects of a project. This position is right for you.
