Title: Midweight Designer (3-5 years experience) Reporting to: Design Manager Hours: 9-5 GMT Location: Based in the Glasgow office 4 days per week during onboarding, reducing to 3 days per week thereafter, with occasional travel to Edinburgh for company meet-ups. Salary: £27,000 per annum Introducing hyble! Things move quickly at hyble! We're a team of passionate individuals who love what we do and are always striving for the best. If you're looking for a company that values your contributions and offers exciting challenges, this might be the place for you. We're a fast-growing marketing technology company serving customers in over 50 countries. Just six years ago, we were a tight-knit team of 12 crammed into a tiny office in a start-up incubator. Fast forward to today, and we’ve transformed into a dynamic team of over 90 passionate individuals spanning three continents partnering with some of the world's biggest alcoholic beverage brands. Right now, we’re expanding rapidly into North America as a result of signing a transformational contract with the largest Wine and Spirits Distributor in the USA, who also happens to be the 11th biggest privately owned company in the US. Our Purpose Our goal is to create a lasting positive impact by disrupting a traditional industry that’s operated the same way for over 50 years. It blows our minds that sales reps have to spend weeks creating something as simple as a poster. And we’re horrified by the amount of obsolete Point of Sale we see being sent to landfill. So, we're on a mission to solve these issues once and for all. Our technology platform “hyble” empowers sales reps in the beverage industry to create on-demand marketing materials that are both brand-compliant and tailored for the specific account. Combined with our enterprise services which enable the change management process and our cloud printing model that enables rapid turnaround print we have a game-changing solution that the market is screaming out for. This innovative approach makes sales reps lives easier by allowing them to support more accounts in less time while also drastically reducing the production of generic marketing content that often ends up in landfill.
