Graphic Designer jobs in Maidstone

The Role

We’re looking for a well-rounded Midweight Designer who’s confident across print, digital and video.

You’ll also have ownership of specific brands and projects as part of your day-to-day responsibilities.

Submitting a portfolio, website or relevant examples of work is mandatory as part of your application. Applications without this will not be considered.
