Mid-Weight / Junior Designer
YOM | Full-Time | (London / Hybrid)
About the Role
YOM is an exciting beauty startup building something groundbreaking — a brand that’s creative, impactful, and doing things differently. We’re looking for a Mid-Weight / Junior Designer to join us at a pivotal moment and help shape how our brand shows up in the world.
This is a rare chance to be part of something from the ground up. You’ll bring our brand and product story to life across social, email, and the full 360° mix, and you’ll work closely with our founder to help build out her personal channels too. We’re after someone ambitious, talented, and genuinely excited by the idea of building a brand — someone who thrives working closely with a small, fast-moving team and isn’t afraid to bring bold ideas to the table.
What You’ll Do
- Bring our brand and product story to life across social, email, and the full 360° mix — social, digital, print, OOH, packaging, motion/video, and in-store or experiential assets
- Design and build EDMs/email campaigns in Figma, following brand and template guidelines
- Create scroll-stopping social content, including Reels and other short-form video, tailored to each platform’s format and audience
- Support our founder in building out and growing her personal channels, creating content that feels authentic to her voice while staying true to the brand
- Translate brand guidelines and creative briefs into polished, channel-appropriate executions
- Contribute creative ideas and concepts in brainstorms — we want your point of view, not just your execution
- Partner closely with the founder and wider team to bring campaigns from concept to final delivery
- Manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously without compromising quality
- Prepare and adapt artwork for various formats and specs (social crops, email templates, motion frames, etc.)
- Stay current on design trends, platform best practices, and beauty/category work
- Maintain brand consistency across every touchpoint as the brand scales
- Take feedback constructively and iterate quickly in a fast-moving startup environment
What You’ll Bring
- 2–4 years’ experience in an agency, in-house creative team, startup, or studio environment — beauty or lifestyle brand experience is a big plus
- A strong portfolio demonstrating range across social, email, and print/OOH work
- Solid proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign); After Effects or Premiere a strong plus
- Strong working knowledge of Figma, particularly for building and adapting email/EDM designs
- Confidence creating short-form video content (Reels, TikToks, Stories) for social channels
- A good understanding of typography, layout, colour, and brand systems
- A genuine passion for beauty and building brands, with an eye for what makes content feel authentic and scroll-stopping
- Strong attention to detail and consistency, especially when adapting one core idea across many formats and touchpoints
- Good communication skills and comfort sharing and presenting creative ideas
- Ambition and drive — you’re excited by the idea of helping build something from an early stage, not just executing a brief
- A collaborative, hands-on mindset — comfortable working closely with a founder and small team, wearing multiple hats where needed
Nice to Have
- Basic motion design or video editing skills
- Experience working directly with clients or in client-facing presentations
- Familiarity with social platform specs and best practices (Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, etc.)
