About the Client

The Client is a distinguished and reputable jeweler specializing in high-quality diamonds, engagement rings, wedding bands, and fine jewelry. With a strong online presence and a commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and customer service, we are looking for a talented and experienced Senior/Head Designer to elevate our brand's visual identity across all digital platforms and marketing materials. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in shaping our brand's aesthetic and driving our online success.

About the Role

We are seeking a highly experienced and creative Head of Design and Branding who will take full ownership of all design-related tasks across the business. While the majority of the work will revolve around digital assets—primarily web design and email templates—there will also be occasional needs for print collateral such as business cards, brochures, or leaflets. This role requires someone highly experienced and versatile, capable of delivering consistent and high-quality visual output across both digital and print mediums.

We are looking for a creative leader who not only has technical expertise but also a deep understanding of branding, particularly within the luxury space. The ideal candidate should have a refined aesthetic sensibility and a strong appreciation for maintaining and evolving the brand's visual identity, ensuring every asset—whether on the website or in print—aligns with the brand’s tone, values, and positioning.

We’re looking for someone who is not only technically capable but also inspired and inspiring—a designer who takes initiative, offers insight, and contributes to the ongoing growth and evolution of the brand.
