We’re GetYourGuide – the number one travel experiences booking platform.

Working closely with Creative Leadership, you will concept, develop, design and iterate creative assets across a range of channels – from OOH to display assets – that’ll be used in global campaigns. Well-versed in both print and digital, with a discerning eye for brand-defining art direction, you will be adept at working with a copywriting partner to deliver on-brand, innovative work that transforms the brief. Together, you’ll create work that will live in destinations across the globe, and resonates with customers who can’t wait to travel again.

You will be comfortable collaborating with stakeholders across the company to understand their creative requirements and will be able to translate these into exceptional, pixel-perfect design. You need to love working in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same.

• Skills in iconography/illustration, basic motion design are a plus.
• Entrepreneurial spirit with a bias for action. You love to work fast and make things happen. You are always looking for ways to make GetYourGuide better through design.
• Able to juggle multiple projects to deadline and expectations independently.
• Passionate about the power of feedback. Able to receive feedback from a range of teams with a positive attitude and ensure it is captured, validated and implemented properly. 
• Speciality/higher education degree in the field of communication design, graphic design, media design, or similar qualification preferred.
