Senior Digital Designer

SLIK is looking for a full-time Senior Digital Designer to join our Sydney team. (Applicants must be Australian residents)

You’ll join a lovely bunch of passionate creative thinkers, designers and doers delivering award-winning insight-led campaigns through beautiful storytelling and technical excellence.

We’re a flexible, agile independent agency, and our best hires are those that love wearing a few hats. We’ll value your point of view, ensure you’re in the mix with new client opportunities and support you to mentor junior team members with infectious enthusiasm.  

Our clients love us for our persistent drive for quality and excellence, and it’s this pride in our work that makes it shine. We love poking at things, opening our minds (and others) and broadening perspectives. We constantly ask ourselves “What else?”. We also know how to have fun with laughter, pub lunches, office doggies and ski trips. We’re all for fun and fun for all.
