Job description & requirements

Full-time – Real Estate Developer – Print, Digital & Environmental

About the Role

We’re a real estate developer hiring a Graphic Designer to produce on-brand work across out-of-home (hoardings, billboards, banners, signage), print (brochures, internal magazine, sales collateral, internal documents), and digital (social, email, presentations). We need someone fast, accurate, self-directed, and genuinely invested in craft — spotting what could be better and fixing it before being asked.

What You’ll Do

• Design out-of-home and environmental graphics — site hoardings, billboards, banners, wayfinding, sales centre signage. Large-format work where bleed, scale, and print specs matter.

• Produce sales and marketing print — brochures, flyers, sales packs, presentation decks, direct mail, and event collateral.

• Produce our internal magazine and documents — reports, decks, induction materials, policy documents, and templates that look professional and stay on-brand.

• Design for social and digital — static posts, carousels, story templates, ad creative, email graphics. You can adapt a campaign across formats without losing the idea.

• Own files end-to-end. Print-ready artwork with correct bleed, colour profiles, fonts outlined, and packaged supplier files — right the first time.

• Manage your pipeline in Trello — cards updated daily, deadlines visible, blockers flagged early, work submitted with lead time for feedback before the deadline.

• Quality-control your own output. Proof your work before it leaves your desk — spelling, alignment, brand consistency, dimensions, file specs.

• Bring critical thinking. When a brief is unclear or weak, flag it and propose a better direction — don’t silently produce something mediocre.

Output Expectations

• Social and small digital assets: same-day or next-day turnaround.

• Standard print and internal documents: 2–3 working days from brief to first draft.

• Larger campaigns (brochures, hoardings, magazine): scoped and timelined upfront, with first drafts well ahead of deadline to leave time for revisions.

• Feedback windows: submitted with runway for at least two rounds of revisions before the hard deadline. Submitting on the deadline is not acceptable.

• Error rate: first drafts should be clean. Avoidable errors should be the rare exception, not the norm.

Must-Haves

• Speed without sloppiness. Fast because you’re organised and fluent in your tools — not because you cut corners.

• Forensic eye for detail. You catch the kerning, the off-by-one alignment, the wrong shade of brand colour. You proof obsessively.

• Initiative and critical thinking. You ask, push back constructively, and propose. Passive execution is not what we’re hiring for.

• Strong systems discipline. Trello used properly, deadlines hit reliably, risks flagged before they slip.

• Strong fundamentals. Typography, hierarchy, layout, colour, grids. Your work looks considered, not improvised. This includes file naming and folder organization.

• Print and large-format fluency. Bleed, CMYK vs RGB, Pantone, vector vs raster, viewing distance, supplier requirements. Hoardings, billboards, banners experience.

• Brand consistency. You work within a brand system and keep it tight across dozens of touchpoints.

• Adobe Creative Suite fluency — InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop to a professional standard.

• Portfolio of real, shipped work — print, environmental, brochures, digital. Not student or speculative pieces.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Previous experience in real estate, property, architecture, hospitality, or premium-brand sectors.
  • Motion design, basic animation, photography, or photo retouching skills.
  • Experience preparing files for different print suppliers and substrates.

How We’ll Evaluate You

• Design test. A small, realistic brief (e.g. hoarding concept or brochure spread) with 48-hour turnaround — testing speed, craft, detail, and whether you ask the right questions before starting.

• Portfolio walkthrough. Pick one project and walk us through the brief, constraints, decisions, and what you’d change now.

• Spot-the-error exercise. We’ll show you a piece of “nearly finished” artwork — designers with a real eye find things in the first 30 seconds.

How to Apply

  • CV.
  • Portfolio link — ideally showing print, environmental, and digital.
  • One-paragraph note on a piece of design (yours or someone else’s) you think is genuinely well-crafted, and why.
