Mid Designer
Location: | Cape Town, Claremont |
Remote work: | Some remote work allowed |
Education level: | Degree |
Job level: | Mid |
Type: | Permanent |
Reference: | #Mid Designer |
Company: | Hippocampus |
Location: Cape Town - Hybrid
Agency: Hippocampus
At Hippocampus, we’re creatives obsessed with the human brain. The way we think. The way what we see makes us feel. The way moments are transformed into memory. Guided by neuropsychology and the science of human behaviour, we create work that connects deeply, lingers longer, and resonates more powerfully.
Our namesake – the hippocampus – is the part of the brain that turns thinking into being. It shapes emotions, embeds memories, and sparks creativity. And at our core, that’s exactly what we do: create ideas, stories, and designs that leave a lasting imprint.
We’re now looking for a Mid-Designer to join our growing creative team – someone with solid design craft, fresh ideas, and the hunger to keep learning and pushing creative boundaries.
What you’ll do
- Develop and execute design concepts across a range of brands and sectors, from wines and spirits to lifestyle, retail, and purpose-driven projects.
- Translate strategic thinking and creative briefs into compelling, memorable visual solutions.
- Work confidently across both digital and print, balancing conceptual creativity with executional precision.
- Collaborate closely with art directors, writers, and strategists to deliver cohesive campaigns.
- Present design ideas clearly, internally and to clients, with the ability to articulate the “why” behind your creative choices.
- Stay curious – keeping an eye on design, cultural and tech trends to bring fresh inspiration into the work.
What we’re looking for
- 3–5 years’ experience as a Designer, preferably in an advertising or brand-focused environment.
- A portfolio that shows strong design foundations – layout, typography, colour, and image – as well as conceptual thinking.
- Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign); bonus if you’re comfortable in Figma or motion/video editing tools.
- Strong attention to detail with the ability to take projects from concept to final production-ready artwork.
- A proactive, problem-solving mindset – comfortable working independently but also thrives in collaboration.
- The ability to balance creativity with commercial thinking and client needs.
- Curiosity about human behaviour, culture, and creativity (a love of the brain is optional, but encouraged!).
What we offer
- The opportunity to work with a boutique agency that thinks differently – where neuroscience meets creativity.
- A diverse mix of clients and projects that keep the work fresh and challenging.
- A collaborative, supportive team culture that values curiosity, experimentation, and bold thinking.
- Room to grow – both in craft and responsibility – with mentorship and space to stretch creatively.
Please send your portfolio and CV to terri@hippocampus.co.za.
If you have not heard from us in 10 days, please assume your application unsuccessful.
