Nobody’s Child is for the free thinkers, the dreamers, and the go-getters. Born in 2015, we’ve spent the last decade creating clothes that feel as good as they look for people who embrace individuality, live with purpose, and want to leave the world a little better than they found it. It’s been 10 years of creativity, growth, and bold ideas, and the values that guide us haven’t changed.

We are looking for an experienced and creatively ambitious Lead Graphic Designer to join our team.

Reporting to the Head of Creative, this is a hands-on creative leadership role responsible for driving the quality, consistency and evolution of Nobody’s Child's graphic design across all brand touch points.

Combining strong design expertise with proven people management experience, you will lead and develop the graphic design team while remaining actively involved in the day-to-day design and delivery of creative across campaigns, digital marketing, e-commerce, CRM, paid media, social and print.

You will take ownership of the end-to-end graphic design process, from initial briefing and creative development through to execution and rollout, ensuring our creative is distinctive, engaging and commercially effective.

We're looking for someone with a strong design aesthetic, an instinct for fashion and visual storytelling, and a genuine passion for creating great work. You'll be equally comfortable developing creative concepts, designing day-to-day assets, guiding your team and contributing fresh ideas for brand content.
