Creative Design for Communication & Interpretation

Berwick Shines is led by The Maltings (Berwick) Trust and as part of the Living Barracks engagement programme, we are seeking a graphic designer to work with us on our communications and interpretation materials over the coming months.

We would like to contract a freelance graphic designer to work across our entire programme, building on an established visual identity that can be adapted to correspond to the diverse projects that we have commissioned. They will work closely with the Creative Producer to conceive interpretation schemes for each project and then produce digital assets and print ready files for a variety of formats.

They will have an understanding of the Berwick-upon- Tweed context, and an ability to think creatively and inventively to come up with solutions for non-traditional forms of display.

The successful designer will be expected to manage their time and communicate clearly about deadlines and capacity.

The fee for this project is £8000 inclusive of your working hours for the production of designs and reasonable amendments, and any licenses required.

We will cover costs for print, but would expect you to assist with sourcing quotes, and we are happy to work with your preferred suppliers where appropriate.
