At Selfridges, we strive to deliver an unrivalled retail experience. And that’s just as true for our customers online as it is for those who visit us in-store.  As an integral part of our front-end Production team, you’ll help to create an online experience that blends world-class design with great functionality and keeps our customers coming back for more.

About the role

Taking your lead from Senior Designers and Creative Managers, you’ll tackle a wide variety of creative briefs. From initial ideas through pitches and presentations to the final pages our customers see, you’ll develop fresh, compelling, user-focused design work for our websites, emails and other mobile and online marketing campaigns. And the real measure of your success will be the innovative ideas you bring to each project while at the same time building a strong, consistent overall brand experience.

About you

An excellent knowledge of Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign is essential. As is a decent grasp of HTML, CSS and Flash. Every bit as important as your technical skills, however, will be your deep understanding of the subtler aspects of design – layout composition, colour theory, typography and branding, your pin-sharp attention to detail. The chances are you’ll come to us from a similar retail/ecommerce environment. But whatever your background, you must be used to working collaboratively with everyone from project managers and information architects to copywriters and fellow designers.
