They are currently looking to recruit a German speaking Brand Guideline Designer to join their highly talented team.
In this role you will be creating brand guidelines in German and English language for two of the world's biggest retailers.

* You must display excellent organisational and time management skills, keen attention to detail and the ability to work independently managing multiple, concurrent projects.
* You will be self motivated and thrive in a deadline-driven and fast-paced environment.
* Fluency in InDesign and Illustrator, is essential. Experience in Photoshop would be advantageous.
* You must be able to work independently as well as in a team.
Duties & Responsibilities:
* Provide expert advice to the design and artwork departments about which master elements of the new brands need to be prepared, artworked or retouched before work can commence on the guidelines.
* Systematically and logically analyse the projects, and advise on the most logical structure and content of guidelines.
* Understand which elements of the new brands need to be included, explained and detailed in the guidelines.
* Foresee, identify, discuss and solve any potential problems in relation to creating new brands.
* Manage the setting up of new guidelines in German, based on existing templates and guideline examples including the design and layout of individual pages.
* Ensure that all design examples within the guidelines are consistent and fully comply with all associated guidelines.
