Designer - Brand Studio

About JtA:

We’re a group of architectural, interior, and brand designers who create meaningful designs and extraordinary experiences. We create unbelievable spaces that people can dine in, work in, live in, play in, and truly love day in and day out. We create brands that people connect with and want to be a part of again and again. We obsess about every detail and we craft everything we design with this in mind. But above everything else, we’re down-to-earth people who pride ourselves on doing all of this in a personal, hands-on, and service-focused way.

About the Role:

We’re currently looking to add a Designer to our Brand Studio with 7-12 years of experience. A portfolio, previous design experience at a design firm or agency, and experience creating brand identity systems are a must.

We're looking for someone who has great design sensibilities, range, and constantly wants to make them stronger. We’re looking for someone who can do both the conceptual and the tactical, the artistic and the technical, and the tangible and the digital. We’re looking for someone who values the entire design process– strategy, exploration, collaboration, refinement, execution, and implementation. We’re looking for someone who loves to work to get to great design and takes pride in it.

You’ll work on a range of project types in a bunch of different mediums. You’ll create logos, identity systems, collateral, signage, wayfinding, environmental graphics, packaging, stationery, menus, apparel, websites, and more. You’ll work on restaurants and bars, retail, fitness and wellness, social and entertainment venues, developments, universities, big brands, startups, and whatever else comes our way. You’ll work directly with your own clients, manage your own projects, and get your hands on every aspect of them.
