About Stirling Brandworks

At Stirling Brandworks, strategy, creativity, marketing, and technology come together to help brands discover how powerful they can be.

We’re a full-service creative agency that builds brands and digital experiences for professional services, financial, higher-ed, healthcare, and B2B clients. We’re as comfortable in Figma as we are sketching on napkins. We care about clarity of message, beauty of form, and creative that performs.

Our culture values craft, curiosity, and accountability — we hire people who think deeply, push creatively, and collaborate fearlessly.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Senior Designer who can bridge concept and execution… someone who’s equal parts strategic thinker and pixel-perfectionist.

You’ll collaborate with the Creative and Strategy teams to build brand identities, design websites, and develop cross-channel campaigns that make people stop, think, and act. You’ll also help mentor younger designers, ensuring every deliverable that leaves the studio meets Stirling’s standard of clarity and craft.

What You’ll Do

• Design and evolve brand identity systems, visual languages, and guidelines.
• Create digital and web design layouts in Figma for responsive experiences.
• Develop creative for multi-channel campaigns — digital, print, social, email, and environmental.
• Translate brand strategy and creative direction into purposeful, beautiful design.
• Collaborate with copywriters, UX, and developers to ensure cohesive storytelling.
• Oversee production-ready files and quality control for both print and digital assets.
• Contribute ideas, critiques, and inspiration that move the work (and the team) forward.

What You Bring

• 5–8 years of design experience in an agency or creative studio setting.
• A strong portfolio showcasing brand identity, web design, and campaign work.
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud and Figma (bonus for motion, After Effects, or prototyping tools).
• Understanding of responsive design, accessibility, and UX fundamentals.
• High attention to detail and comfort working in a fast-paced, iterative environment.
• Ability to present and explain design decisions clearly to both creative leads and clients.
• A sense of humor and curiosity — you love learning and sharing what’s next in design.

Why you will love working with us

Beyond the work, we’ve built an inclusive culture where people are invited to bring their whole selves to the agency. We’re not just Strategists. Creatives. Technologists. Marketing Experts. Or UX/UI Professionals. We’re also Podcasters, Wedding Planners, Food Influencers, Amateur Hot Sauce Makers, Landscape Photographers, Craft Brewers, Fire Spinners, Four Legged Fluff Balls and Published Poets.

We Offer:

• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with employer contribution
• Paid time off and holidays
• Flexible hybrid work model (in-studio + WFH balance)
• Professional development and conference opportunities
• A creative culture built on collaboration, craft, curiosity, and trust
