Melbourne, Australia Base Melbourne Full time

BaseMEL is looking for a Mid-Weight Designer, a concept-led thinker who lives and breathes brand but can stretch into digital, motion and/or campaign work, then land it with craft and clarity.

As the newest Base, Melbourne is a tight-knit team of six (plus a circle of collaborators) working across arts & culture, beauty & fashion, architecture, tech, media, sport and hospitality. You’ll join us to conceptualise, create and run the day-to-day, contributing to a wide mix of projects and keeping the work sharp and on-track.

At Base Design, we not only accept diversity, we celebrate it. As an equal-opportunity employer, we actively seek a wide and varied pool of applicants. We select candidates based on individual qualifications, merit, and business needs. Because we know that the more inclusive we are, the better our work will be.

We’re hiring full-time. We run hybrid, with Tuesday–Thursday in-studio and optional WFH on Mondays and Fridays.

If the list of qualifications in this offer doesn't 100% apply to you, but you feel you have something extraordinary to add, please contact us and tell us why.

Responsibilities:

- Relentlessly pursue unique and original creative concepts that transcend design trends.
- Translate strategy into brand identities, campaigns, print, digital, packaging and more.
- Support senior designers on larger projects while owning your own, driving experiences and design systems from spark to finish.
- Iterate quickly, refine through feedback loops with senior team designer, and keep an eye on craft.
- Find and brief the right collaborators (illustrators, photographers, animators, developers, writers, etc.).
- Partner with PMs to scope, schedule and hit deadlines.

Qualifications & Qualities:

- 3+ years studio/agency experience.
- Confident across typography, layout, art direction and basic motion; digital skills a plus, not a must.
- Fluency in Figma and Adobe CC; After Effects, 3D or prototyping tools a plus.
- Collaborative, proactive, rigorous; equal parts creative & strategic.
- Restless thinker who challenges, surprises and raises the bar.
- Detail-driven executor who can scale an idea across any medium.
- Communicative Both when presenting work and internally with the team and project management.
- Culturally engaged and perpetually curious.
- Melbourne-based with full Australian working rights.
- Full-time (9 am – 6 pm, Mon–Fri). Freelancers with senior-level digital skills are welcome to introduce themselves.
- Immediate start preferred.
