The role

We’re on the lookout for a passionate Designer, ready to tackle some of the worlds’ greatest challenges. We want someone ambitious, with energy and an appetite to hone their craft on impact driven projects both local and global.

Anthologie designers go wide with their ideas, and zero in on the outcomes. They define and represent their work with confidence, able to bring creativity to a range of briefs.

Our designers sit at the lively intersection between strategy and creative delivery, finding new ways to tackle challenges day in, day out.

In the past year at Anthologie, our designers have created a culturally considered brand for a First Nations Women’s organisation, a new brand platform, identity and content for a Disability Employment service, and developed a campaign that helps people meet in the middle on Climate Change… amongst other things.

Off the back of some significant wins, we have several high profile projects coming in 2022 and we’re excited to grow the team.
