Graphic Designer

This is an onsite (non hybrid) role

US

Ministry of Sound opened in 1991 in a disused bus garage in a forgotten corner of South London. It was the first nightclub in the UK to have a 24-hour licence, didn’t serve alcohol and featured an earth-shaking sound system in a specially constructed dance box.

We went on to become the world’s largest independent record company (now owned by Sony) and stage giant dance events, including one for 50,000 people at the Millennium Dome. We were pioneers in electronic music and have a history of taking risks, innovation, and colourful and creative marketing.

Thirty years later we opened The Ministry, a workspace run as a member’s club, in a 50,000 sq. ft Victorian warehouse in SE1. There’s excellent F&B, a state-of-the-art gym and fitness studio with daily classes, together with a cultural and business events programme. The design is relaxed but functional with a bar, opening windows, an outside courtyard and plenty of space to sit, relax, work and socialise – everything you wouldn’t expect to find in a standard office.

As a business we don’t take ourselves too seriously, like to laugh and have fun, but we have high standards, a relentless attention to detail and the continuous improvement of our product, and we work hard as a team.

We hate cliché, doing things the way others do and continuously seek to differentiate our brands and products almost as a point of pride.

YOU

We are on the search for a talented Graphic Designer with excellent typographic and motion graphics skills to join our in-house team of creatives.

You will be at the forefront of all things Ministry of Sound, our world-famous nightclub. We’re the home of dance music and you will already be ingrained in the clubbing and rave scene.

This role is vital in creating designs that excite our hugely diverse audience and that promote our brand across various platforms. Your expertise will help us to deliver captivating visual experiences that enhance the venue, our marketing campaigns, events, and digital content.

You will be happy to work within a productive team who work at rapid pace to deliver a high volume of assets, promoting ticket sales and brand awareness.

You will be agile and enthusiastic to take on a range of different tasks, passionate about your work and music, and you’ll have plenty of experience to handle projects from briefing to completion.

You will collaborate closely with other in house creatives who sit across our other businesses. You will be adept at communication, keen to understand the requirements of others and able to achieve the right results.

You will hold project management experience within platforms like Asana or similar. You will possess layout skills and digital design knowledge from graphic to user interface design and have an understanding of UI/UX.

You will also be proficient using InDesign, AfterEffects, TouchDesigner, Canva & the remainder of Adobe suite.

You are on top of industry trends, techniques, and software, bringing fresh and innovative ideas to the team whilst also challenging and developing our style.

You will have a willingness to visit club nights and work evenings / weekends as required.

All other duties as assigned.
