1. SENIOR DESIGNER
We’re after someone with 7 or more years of first rate design experience working on identity, packaging and print projects for premium brands, primarily in the food sector. Ideally you will have worked across a number of design disciplines and will have a thorough knowledge of all the design processes. You must be able to draw and articulate your ideas using traditional media as well as Illustrator + Photoshop.
We are looking for someone really special who has a real passion for design and the best things in life. You must love typography and image making more than life itself. We believe that variety is the spice of life and our ambition is to enjoy every single day of our lives and make the most of every opportunity we are given.
Added to this, we have one of the best views in London, which makes coming to work even more pleasurable. Click here to check out the view from your new desk. If you’ve read this far and seen the view, you’re probably quite interested in the job, so please send us your CV + samples of your work as specified above. Good luck!

2. ARTWORKER
Same view, same desk but a very different job to the one above. We’re looking for someone who can craft layouts, setup style sheets, create and perfect templates before rolling them out to 30 packs in 4 days, someone who can take in hundreds of amends and return the proofs in a near immaculate state, who can retouch high-end images with pixel perfect precision, cut masks, balance colours, set type, draw cutter guides, understand what colour calibration means, visualise layouts and generally be the most important person in the studio or possibly the world!
As if this wasn’t enough, you’ll need to score 10 out of 10 in Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign and be pretty nifty at spotting a typo, bad line break, hickey or colour shift. You’ll also need to be super hot on general Mac stuff.
If you like the sound of this kind of challenge then we’d love to hear from you. Please send CV+samples of your work to studio@bigfish.co.uk ensuring that it conforms to the specification at the top of this page. Best of luck!

3. WORK PLACEMENTS
We do run a work placement scheme as we believe studio experience is a vital part of the learning process. You will be asked to do a range of ad-hoc tasks and overseen by a junior designer during your stay with us.
To qualify you must have at least two year's training in design and willing to work almost for FREE!
To apply please e-mail studio@bigfish.co.uk with your cv and examples of your work in PDF format. It is vital that you make the subject line of your email 'Work placement: your name'. Please do NOT e-mail files totalling more than 5MB.
