Graduate Entry Graphic Designer

Description:

Birmingham City University is delighted to offer this post as part of their Graduate 'Grow Your Own' programme which provides roles exclusively for BCU graduates.

This vacancy is open to all graduates of Birmingham City University who have graduated in 2020, 2021 or graduating in 2022.

As part of this programme you will receive additional support in the form of tailored learning to support your transition from student to working professional.

Do you have the skills to bring our communication and marketing strategies to life? Do you want to create compelling print and digital content that service users and customers will love? Do you enjoy collaborating and want to grow your network by building relationships with innovative businesses and social purpose organisations? This is an opportunity to work within a collaborative and supportive team at a very exciting point in our journey, whilst starting out on your own career.

In line with its mission to be a University for Birmingham, the University is moving into a unique Collaborative Innovation Centre to create a new STEAMhouse facility.

Over 5 floors of a new build linked to a refurbished Belmont Works, STEAMhouse includes production workshops, teaching space, training and meeting rooms, demonstration areas, project space, business accommodation, a business incubator and digital enabling support; all accessible to a developing community of practice that is open to collaboration, exploration, conversation, newness and radical openness in conjunction with other disciplines.

These are the attributes that mean STEAM to us; the inclusive application of STEM and Arts thinking to make sense of challenges in business and society.

The building will open early 2022 from the ground floor initially and central to this is a particular communications style that you will have a chance to shape.

If you’re creatively curious, collaborative, and passionate about creating content that responds to audience needs and interested in working with people who want to create impactful new products, services, programmes, why not join our STEAMhouse team?

Reporting to our Head of Service Innovation and Experimentation, you will be responsible for designing toolkits, information guidance, and marketing publications to support the development and delivery of STEAMhouse products and services through engaging graphic design work.
