Overview
Senior Designer Jobs in New York City Metropolitan Area at Sunday Afternoon
Sunday Afternoon is looking for a Senior Designer who's as comfortable shaping a brand world as they are sweating the details of a type system. You'll work across brand identity, visual systems, and art direction for clients big and small, from early concept through final execution.
You have a strong point of view on image-making. You know how to define the photographic and visual language that makes a brand feel like somewhere, not just something, and you know how to build that into a system that holds up across seasons, channels, and executions.
You're a concept-first thinker who translates strategy into ideas with real creative ambition. You define visual territories with clarity and conviction, setting the mood, tone, casting direction, and compositional logic that become the foundation of a brand rather than the decoration of a campaign.
You present well, think independently, and know how to bring junior designers along with you. You're not precious about the work but you care deeply about it. And you're excited to contribute to a studio where the culture, the craft, and the clients all push you to do your best work.
Basic Qualifications
Portfolio or samples of work demonstrating smart, brand-building designs and executions
