Middleweight Designer

You’ve done the time. You’ve sharpened your skills. Now you’re ready to push boundaries.

We are Halo! A bold, brand-first studio in Bristol, partnering with household names, global giants, and the next wave of disruptors. From supermarket shelves to luxury spirits to future-first start-ups, we bring clarity, strategic impact, and a punch of creativity to every project.

We trade in ideas. We value thinking. And we’re looking for a mid-weight creative with serious conceptual firepower and at least four years in a brand agency to help us bring the magic.

This isn’t a background role. We want a thinker and a doer, someone with a sharp eye, a restless brain, and a hunger to craft brands that mean business. You’ll be developing big ideas, rolling up your sleeves in execution, and making sure everything sings from pack to screen.

You’ll be joining a tight, talented team where your ideas matter and your voice is heard.

What you’ll do

• Create original, insight-led design that builds impact.
• Translating those ideas across multiple channels, from packaging and print to digital and campaign.
• Collaborating with strategists, writers, and fellow creatives to elevate the work.
• Getting your hands dirty in the detail, layouts, typography, guidelines and rollout.
• Pushing craft and consistency, without ever losing sight of the big idea.

What we’re looking for

• 4+ years of experience as a middleweight designer in a brand agency environment.
• A folio that shows strategic thinking and strong conceptual development.
• A balance of big ideas and tight execution, you’re just as comfortable brainstorming as you are refining.
• Confidence working both collaboratively and independently.
• A love for design systems, not just one-off pieces.
• Fluency in Adobe Creative Suite, the usual suspects: InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop.
• A keen interest in creative technologies. 

What’s in it for you?

• A seat at the table in a creative, inclusive, and genuinely supportive agency culture.
• The chance to shape exciting brands, big, small, global and local.
• Room to grow and push your craft with mentorship, trust, and opportunity.
• Hybrid flexibility with a Bristol base.
• A team that values personality, authenticity, and point of view as much as polish.
  

Our commitment to diversity & inclusion
