Middleweight Designer for We Love

Company Info:

We Love is a strategic creative agency, with digital at its heart.

We offer a smarter way to connect and create resonance with audiences, across multiple digital platforms.

At We Love our imaginations have no limits and we work collaboratively, to make sure that our clients always shine. We understand that influence and change are only achievable with reason and stimulus, and we provide both. We create ideas that inspire people to think, feel and act.

Going home in the knowledge that we have changed the shape of things, even just a little bit, is what makes us smile each day, and that is something we want to encourage in this industry of ours.

If you like working with likeminded individuals, who have the hunger and eagerness to make the world a more beautiful place for some great clients (Yamaha, Sony, MTV, MSIF, L'Oreal), then you might want to come and work with us.
