Senior Editorial Designer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Location: Los Angeles

Contract: Permanent

Salary: $110,000 – $120,000 per annum, depending on experience

About Your Studio

YourStudio is a dynamic strategy and creative agency specialising in next-generation experiences and environments for global brands. With studios in London, Melbourne, New York and LA, we work supportively as one global team to deliver award-winning retail experiences that are recognised globally.

The Opportunity

The Senior Graphic Designer on this retainer account turns raw, unstructured client material into beautifully crafted, story-driven presentations. Working full-time on the account, you will take retail directives and dense source documents — often delivered in a raw form — and shape them into clear, polished, on-brand Keynote decks.

This is a role for a designer with strong editorial instincts and exceptional attention to detail - someone who can absorb a large volume of information quickly, find the through-line, and translate it into a compelling narrative and layout. It is an ideal step for a designer moving into their first senior position, with the support of a Design Director.

Success in this role means the client consistently receives sharp, considered, presentation-ready work that elevates their retail communications and deepens their trust in the studio.

What You'll Do

Presentation & Deck Design

• Interpret raw, complex client inputs — retail directives, briefs, and reference documents — and transform them into polished, beautifully designed Keynote presentations.

• Distil large volumes of information into clear, well-organised decks with a strong narrative arc and logical flow.

• Craft compelling layouts that balance editorial clarity with visual impact, using typography, hierarchy and imagery to guide the reader.

• Source, select and treat imagery to strengthen the story and maintain a consistently high standard of craft across every slide.

• Maintain brand consistency and a high level of finish across all outputs, working at pace across multiple directives.

Editorial & Information Design

• Read, interpret and structure dense source material — deciding what matters, what to cut, and how to sequence it.

• Apply strong editorial judgement to shape raw content into a clear, persuasive narrative.

• Ensure accuracy and consistency of copy, data and detail throughout each deck.

Process & Delivery

• Manage your own time effectively across concurrent directives, keeping work on track and on schedule.

• Work closely with the Design Director and Project Managers to deliver against agreed scope and timelines, communicating proactively and flagging issues early.

• Turn work around efficiently without compromising on quality of thinking or craft.

Client & Team Relationships

• Build a strong working understanding of the client's brand, its audience and its retail context.

• Collaborate with Strategy, Account and Design colleagues to make sure decks land the intended message.

• Contribute constructively to feedback and reviews, taking direction well and building on it.

What You’ll Bring

Creative Skills

• Proven ability to design clear, elegant, high-impact presentations and decks.

• Strong storytelling and editorial skills — able to build a narrative arc and structure information for clarity and persuasion.

• Confident command of layout, typography, hierarchy and the use of imagery.

• Exceptional attention to detail and a high bar for finish and consistency.

• Ability to take in a large amount of information at once and quickly organise it into something coherent.

Technical Skills

• Expert in Keynote (and comfortable in Google Slides / PowerPoint) for presentation design.

• Strong across Adobe Creative Suite — InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop, as well as Figma and Miro.

• Proficient in using AI tools to explore, test and iterate within the creative process.

• Print production and artworking is a plus, but not essential.

Interpersonal Skills

• Clear, confident communicator, internally and with the client.

• Pragmatic problem-solver who balances creative ambition with the realities of a fast-moving retainer.

• Calm and organised under pressure, with the ability to juggle multiple directives.

• Collaborative, reliable and easy to work with across disciplines.

• Culturally curious and tuned into retail, sport and youth culture.

How We Support You

• A supportive environment designed to guide you in your first senior position, with direct mentorship from a Design Director.

• A chance to act as a visible standard-bearer for the studio's presentation work, sharing inspiration and reference to raise the bar for story-driven design across the team.

• In line with our B-Corp commitment, an opportunity to embed environmental and social responsibility into your creative decisions — working to create positive outcomes for people, community, and the planet.

• Clear avenues for growth, handling increasingly complex directives with autonomy, building direct client trust, and developing commercial awareness to help you progress toward higher design leadership roles.
