Brand Designer

Full time · Verve HQ

Ready to write design history? You’re in the right place. At Verve, we want to rock the (design) world - and we’d like to do that alongside nice, talented people like you. Together we’ll create amazing work that you can be truly proud of, while enjoying some of the best days of your career.

We are Verve: designers, developers and strategists who transform good brands into great ones. We combine our digital-first mindset with razor-sharp strategy and outspoken design to distill a brands' energy into an unforgettable story. Like we do for Miro, Dutch Design Week, Zenchef, YoungCapital NEXT, and KRO-NCRV. 

As a Designer at Verve

You are an experienced brand designer that translates the client's goals into strategic design concepts that connect with their audiences and drive their brand forward. Thanks to your knowledge and experience in digital branding and research, you’ll empower your colleagues in design, strategy, and digital design to create their very best work. You'll work at least three days at one of our studios in Amsterdam and/or The Hague. 

You'll create brand identities rooted in brand strategy. You don't believe that a brand is its logo. You create holistic brand systems that live across and adapt to different kinds of media. You pitch and present to clients, you share creative insights in inspiring keynotes. You’re a creator and confident speaker, with a vision for the future of branding, tech, culture, and design. You evoke a sense of trust and calm within your team and quickly translate trends in the world into great strategic ideas and striking visuals. With your positive and proactive attitude, you turn every project into collective success.

What we think is important

  • You've worked in a creative international agency-like setting for 6+ years.

  • A proven track record of inspiring brand identities and design work.

  • Ability to inspire people and get everyone on the team on the same page.

  • Understanding of the business side of brand design.  

  • Work ethics: optimistically pragmatic, fast-paced, feeling comfortable in sharing process, fast decision making. 

Perks at Verve

🚀 The basics

We provide you with an Apple laptop, keyboard, mouse and a laptop stand. Get ready for healthy lunches at the office and fully-covered transportation costs for public transport, and contributions to car, motor, bike and even your skateboard. You get access to a retirement plan for which you receive an additional percentage with your monthly salary. Everything you need, to take away any worries and focus on producing your best work.

🧠 The purpose

Verve is about realizing potential. We see this potential in our clients, our company, but also in your professional and personal growth. That’s why we share inspiration and host occasional Lunch and Learn sessions with experts from various fields..

🛸 Hybrid

We believe the role of the office has changed, for the better. Come in to enjoy the company of your colleagues, experience the culture and get inspired through the moments between the work. We aim to work together in-person at least three days a week, whether it’s in our Amsterdam or The Hague office. For up to six weeks a year, you can work remotely from anywhere in the world.

❤️ Recharge

We believe great work comes from people who feel good. That’s why we aim to provide the tools for you to maintain a healthy work-life balance. We don’t burn the midnight oil: evenings and weekends are for you. Enjoy a museum visit with your museum card, share your fitness routine in our #sports channel, or do a workout/yoga session with your colleagues.

🤝 Team spirit

You make Verve to what it is. We stimulate a sense of togetherness by going on team trips, wearing Verve apparel, yearly Verve High Five conferences, enjoying special dinners, all the way to bingos and occasional kroketten and cocktails. And because great people want to work with great people, we offer a recruitment bonus for bringing our next talent on board.
