Jones Knowles Ritchie (JKR) is a branding business, founded in 1990 and proudly independent ever since.
We started out in the world of packaging, but now we’re worldwide; from three founders, to more than 320 of us across the UK and USA. Together, we build and deliver brands across the entire consumer experience.
But even more important than what we do, is why we do it. We’re here to inspire brands and people to be their true selves. To be brave. Be tenacious. And above all, be yourself. Because we believe that’s the only way to truly be distinctive, everywhere.
We’re keen to talk to ideas led Senior Designers who share a passion for brand and packaging design. At JKR, our Senior Designers work hand in hand with the Client Services team while providing valuable support to the Design Directors. In this role, you’ll have the chance to inspire our Design teams, mentoring and sharing your expertise with junior members to help them unlock their full potential.
Your creative flair will shine through as you demonstrate an understanding of an Ideas First approach, crafting eye-catching designs that make brands stand out and grab attention. As part of one of our two studio teams, you’ll collaborate with colleagues in Strategy, Program & Account Management, and other creative specialties to build distinctive brands by deeply understanding their essence and core values.
We’re excited to welcome individuals who are either at the beginning of their senior design journey or eager to experience the dynamic environment of a larger studio setup, joining a vibrant team of likeminded design folk.
Responsibilities
At JKR, our goal is to create an equitable, diverse and inclusive workplace that reflects and creates for the societies we live in. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is a long-term business imperative and a commitment at JKR, not an initiative that sits under one department. You will demonstrate being a DE+I advocate and champion with your actions and participation.

If you remember only one thing about us, it's Be Distinctive Everywhere.
Since 1990, we’ve helped brands be who they are, only more so. Because as it turns out: being yourself is a superpower.
From strategies that reclaim crowns, raise curtains, and innovate the internet;
to iconic identities with more swagger, more flame-grilled deliciousness, more going-and-getting…
It’s all done with people who are supremely talented. But more importantly, done with people you want to hang with.
If that’s the kind of brand you want to own. Or the type of work you want to make. We’re your people.
