minds assembly
164 crosby st. floor 3 new york ny 10012
Open Position: Senior Designer
About us:
Much of what you need to know about minds assembly is captured in the name itself: we think we
create and ( ) we put things together. It’s really that simple—and that shockingly different. Of course, the
simplicity of our name belies the depth of what we deliver to our most honored (and often overjoyed)
clients. Our work is consistently at a higher caliber than they are used to, simply because we push
ourselves to think and build differently. Combine this with an obsessive attention to client service, and you
arrive at a place where we stand alone among agencies. Arrogant? No. Confident? Of course, but only
because we’ve put together a team of people who are good AF in every way.
At minds assembly, the engine of our business is commercial invention. We approach every
project—actually, every aspect of our work—as an opportunity to dip our toes into the revitalizing stream
of the new. The original conception of our agency (which has since been realized) was that of a happy
workshop, a place where the mind and hands are free to construct brilliant new things for our clients. Yet,
we never forget that we are in fact a business. Everything we do is to further the commercial goals of our
clients, whether that is to sell a product or an idea. To achieve this, we continue to add only the best
people, those who have the right talent, temperament, and teamwork-orientation to further our collective
goals. Then we ask that each person adhere to two simple and equally important principles:
uncompromising standards and unconditional support. In other words, we push each other, hard, to
produce the best work possible, yet always with the knowledge that we have each other’s backs.
About the role:
A creative explorer focused on providing consistent, reliable work while growing their industry expertise.
A seasoned visualizer with a dose of experience, the Senior Designer is able to translate brand messages
into clear, captivating designs. They confidently navigate projects from conception to completion,
consistently delivering work that aligns with brand guidelines. At this level, they have now begun to hone
their presentation skills under the supervision of their senior team members.
