Are you ThinkPlace's next Business Designer?
If this job advert caught your attention, we think ThinkPlace would too!
We work at the crossroad of social change and design. We engage with the complexity and the messiness of real human experiences — how people live, work and play; how people experience products, services or regulations; how they navigate systems they interact with. We tackle some of the world’s most complex challenges using design-led, human-centred approaches.
As we step into an exciting future, we are looking for multiple Business Designers with a focus on Service and Visual Design to join our team. If the requirements below haven't ticked all your boxes, please don't rule yourself out just yet. We want to see your whole self, not just what you are on paper. Diversity for us is beyond a manifesto, we celebrate it.
