Graphic Designer
Cambridge
We're looking for a Graphic Designer to join the creative team at Raspberry Pi Trading in Cambridge. This role will suit someone with experience working in an environment where design tasks can be very varied, with the flexibility to work across several different kinds of platforms, including print magazines, web, those decal thingies you stick on cars, and much more.
Ideally, you'll have experience of online and print-based design, typesetting and perhaps photography. This role will suit a fast-thinking person with a slightly bonky sense of humour and good attention to detail. You'll love design, and enjoy trying new ideas. You'll be able to take direction, and to work within our established visual style, but also not be shy about proposing new ideas. You'll be have a good knowledge of trends in the design industry and social media, and be able to apply this to your work.
Raspberry Pi Trading is a great place to work; we're a friendly and close team that works hard, and prizes individuality, creativity and wit. We take our colleagues' development seriously: you'll have the opportunity to broaden your skills through formal training. And there's free soda and ice cream in the office kitchen.
