Candidates can apply to a maximum of three positions. Any additional applications will not be considered.
The Opportunity
The Brand Creative Studio team drives the brand for Emerson Collective and our priority areas, working to change hearts and minds with world-class storytelling and creativity-big ideas such as advertising, marketing, and brand films, all the way to day-to-day content for brand channels. Design is also an output-from logos to events design and more.

They must be open to feedback and have a working knowledge of Figma and Adobe Creative Suite. They will be included in creative discussions and the intersection of brand building and design.
