At grape we pride ourselves on our people and our culture. We continue to grow fast and that’s where you come in. Our team is dynamic, diverse and full of creative ideas. Want to join? We can’t wait to get to know you!

Hi there. Janine here. I know, this is unconventional… I’m deviating from the regular job description script. Why? Because this role is different. The starting point for this role is different, and we want to communicate that clearly and transparently so we find our perfect match.

If you go onto our website and think, “This looks great”, we are not for you. If you go onto our website and think, “Amazing opportunity for a rebrand to put my mark on this brand”, we are also not for you.

Because here’s the truth:
For the past year, we’ve worked on the fundamentals of our brand: from our brand identity (mission, vision, values, brand associations) to our tone of voice. From that, we’ve built a really strong visual foundation that we believe in long term. And now, we’re at a place where we’re looking to slowly build up in‑house design, and we need someone who can put the brand before personal signature, buy into the new visual identity, execute on it with care, and then, over the years, shape its trajectory and help develop it further.

No rebrand. No reset. Continuous improvement.

“How am I supposed to apply to a job where I haven’t seen the new visual identity? How will I know whether I can identify with it or not?”

That’s a great question. We’ve decided to give you temporary viewer access to our Figma if you reach out to our TA Manager, Marko (marko.pavicevic).

Now that that’s settled, here’s some more info on the role.

• Execute on our new visual identity and help shape our brand guidelines going forward.
• Lead design projects from concept through delivery.
• Bring your creative expertise and know‑how to campaign planning just as much as to execution.
• Design and create digital and physical collateral for brand and marketing initiatives.
• Review design work from external partners to ensure high quality and brand consistency.

• You bring +6 years of experience, either from a branding/creative agency or working within an in‑house team.
• You have a proven track record of building brands, are able to adapt your designs to the respective brand, and are proficient at reviewing design materials to ensure cohesive execution.
• Your strong aesthetic sensibility and passion for branding allow you to interpret the grape brand and deliver a unified narrative through your work.
• You excel at managing a variety of design projects simultaneously, collaborating effectively with both internal teams and external stakeholders.
• You are highly skilled in Figma and equally adept with Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop. After Effects is a plus.
• Creating animated digital assets that are versatile and impactful is second nature to you.
• You have an eye for detail, precision, and exceptional typography skills.
• While you thrive working independently, you also enjoy partnering with diverse teams to bring projects and campaigns to life.
• As a collaborator, you challenge others constructively while pushing your own creative boundaries.
• You are fluent in English, both written and spoken, with German being a plus.

• Refine expertise in brand storytelling by working on diverse design projects that bring the grape brand’s vision to life across various platforms.
• Expand skills in cross‑functional collaboration through hands‑on involvement with internal teams, external freelancers, and other…
