Creative Designer

The role

capsule. group is looking for a talented, culturally curious Creative Designer to join our growing team and become our first dedicated in-house design hire.

Working across some of the world’s leading beauty, wellness and consumer brands, this is a multidisciplinary role spanning campaigns, brand experiences, social, digital, content and presentations.

Our portfolio includes some of the leading names in beauty and wellness: Laneige, Bubble, Touchland, Innisfree, Lumene, Hero, Batiste, Aestura.

We’re looking for someone who can do more than make things look good. You’ll be involved from the beginning of the creative process, translating strategic and cultural thinking into compelling visual ideas, developing creative territories and taking them through to polished execution.

Lead the creative design process, bringing brand worlds to life through immersive, real-world experiences, and oversee creative execution across standout pop-ups, consumer experiences and brand activations.

One week might see you developing the visual world for a major London brand launch; the next creating a social campaign, designing a new-business presentation, art-directing content or helping transform a strategic idea into a physical consumer experience.

As our first dedicated designer, you’ll also have the opportunity to help shape how creative and design operates within capsule. group as the agency continues to grow.

What you'll do

Campaigns & creative concepts

• Translate strategic and creative briefs into strong visual concepts and campaign territories
• Develop key visuals, moodboards, typography, graphic systems and creative toolkits
• Help teams visualise ideas at an early stage, from initial concepts through to client-ready creative
• Adapt creative systems across multiple channels and formats

Consumer experiences

• Create visual identities and assets for launches, pop-ups, events, dinners, gifting experiences and brand activations
• Design invitations, menus, signage, POS, event collateral, spatial graphics and branded touchpoints
• Create high-quality visual mock-ups that bring experiential concepts to life
• Work alongside internal teams, production partners and suppliers to ensure creative is executed to a high standard

Social & content

• Design social-first creative across Instagram, TikTok and other relevant platforms
• Create static, carousel, Stories, paid-social and lightweight motion assets
• Develop flexible social design systems that allow brands to communicate consistently without becoming repetitive
• Support content shoots through treatments, storyboards and art direction where appropriate

Digital

• Design landing pages, campaign microsites, email assets and other digital experiences
• Work confidently in Figma alongside Adobe Creative Suite
• Translate brand identities and campaign concepts effectively into digital environments
• Collaborate with external developers and specialist partners where required

Presentations & new business

• Elevate the visual storytelling of client presentations, strategic decks and creative proposals
• Bring new-business pitches and credentials to life through compelling design
• Turn complex thinking into clear, visually engaging narratives
• Create templates and systems that improve the quality and consistency of presentations across the agency

capsule. group

• Help evolve and protect the visual identity of capsule. group
• Create assets across our website, social channels, credentials, case studies, awards and new-business materials
• Establish useful templates, systems and design standards for the wider team
• Help define how design operates within the agency as the capability grows

About you

You’ll likely have 3–5 years' experience within a creative agency, design studio, brand agency or similarly fast-moving creative environment.

We’re more interested in the quality of your portfolio and thinking than whether you’ve previously worked specifically within beauty or wellness.

You should have:

• A highly considered portfolio demonstrating excellent visual taste and attention to detail
• Strong typography, composition and layout skills
• The ability to think conceptually as well as execute
• Experience working across brand, campaign, social, digital and print
• Advanced knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite
• Strong working knowledge of Figma
• Experience creating polished client presentations and visual mock-ups
• An understanding of social platforms and how creative needs to behave within them
• The ability to move confidently between different brands, aesthetics and audiences
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple briefs simultaneously
• Confidence presenting and explaining the thinking behind your creative work
• A collaborative approach and the confidence to work with strategists, communications specialists, social teams, producers and senior clients

Experience in motion design, After Effects, content art direction, photography, experiential design, UX or AI-assisted creative workflows would be advantageous, but isn’t essential.

The opportunity

This isn't a traditional in-house graphic design role.

capsule. group works at the intersection of communications, consumer, community and creative, meaning design is involved in everything from global brand launches and cultural activations to social campaigns, content and digital experiences.

You’ll have direct exposure to major international brands and the opportunity to work on projects that move between earned media, culture, creators, physical experiences and digital channels.

Crucially, you’ll be joining as our first dedicated design hire. We want someone who is excited by the opportunity to help build the capability: bringing new ideas into a fast growing agency, raising our creative output and helping define what design at capsule. group can become.

We’re looking for someone with exceptional taste, genuine curiosity about culture and brands, and the ability to turn a strong idea into something people want to see, experience and share.

Please reach out to Ross at [email protected] with your cover letter and portfolio for consideration by Friday 13th November.
