Who we are A brand & growth consultancy aimed at helping consumer brands with promise to meet their growth potential & the right consumers, with an ROI-first mindset. We are advisors, friends, idea boards and guides to the brands we work with.

The business in question

We’re hiring for an exciting pre-launch consumer brand in the utility space. We can’t say much more yet – but if you’re up to chat, we’d love to tell you (some) more. What we can say? It’ll be novel, exciting & full of surprises. The brand is slated to launch by ~Oct ‘26.

What we’re looking for

World peace, and weather that’s always perfect. Oh and, also, a rockstar teammate!

If you have a passion for great design, a creative mind, strong aesthetic instincts, ability and interest to learn & grow and love for consumer-first communication – you’ll love this role. You can look forward to collaborating with a fun and close-knit agile team.

Role & responsibility

1 – Research, research, reference, reference. Immersing yourself in the industry (or industries) in question, and understanding the tiniest details & exploring multiple options and ideas

2 – Collaborate with us to develop and implement brand strategies + support development of brand identity and visual systems (incl. but not limited to the logos, palettes, templates, patterns, special elements, unique identifiers, packaging design so on and so forth)

3 – Brand collateral & design asset creation – think social and ads content, website banners & other digital assets, pop-up stalls, whatever may come up

4 – UI UX design for current websites and / or landing pages

5 – Stay up-to-date with industry trends,



best practices, meaningful use of AI in design, asset generation & best-in-class case studies

6 – Be super open to experiment & learn. The odd Excel task should be up your alley, as should networking with the new people, writing some copy yourself, working on product design, chatting up consumers + more things we can’t think of just yet ;)

Education, experience & aptitude

1 – 1-2 years working in fields related to consumer goods and communications / design

2 – Strong communication skills – both verbal and visual, online & in-person

3 – Be well-versed with Photoshop, Illustrator, Figma and other design softwares

4 – Creativity, out of the box thinking and an ability to problem solve independently

5 – Like people and be able to work well with them – both internally & externally

6 – A general openness to learning new skills and trying things outside your comfort zone

Bonus areas

1 – Intermediate (or beginner with a passion to be better) video editing skills are a plus!

2 – Ideally, know your way around Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Canva et al

3 – If you're interested in exploring the broader marketing function, product design et al; we love a versatile skill set around here!

What you should be prepared for

Pivots:



As the business goes 0-1, expect for things to evolve. This could be your role, the business model, or the category itself. As long as you believe in keeping communication open and flowing in both directions, we don’t see this to be a problem!

Genuine effort: Don’t do things halfway, a lack of sincerity is a pet peeve. If you’re in, be all in and do your best at any task you take up. It’s cool if you don’t know how to do something but give it a go and the rest can be figured out together.

Multi-hatting: You’ll be expected to don different hats depending on the day and task at hand. Do not expect to have a unidimensional POV on everything you do. The plus side? Well-rounded learning, at a pretty fast pace! As part of a small team, if you’re interested in doing more things and doing them differently, you’ll have the opportunity to do so.

The office is based in Vikhroli. The position will be hybrid and flexible WFH, but we’d want to see each other at least 2-3 times a week, if not more. Expect some amount of intra-city travel for shoots, events, vendor visits et al, in addition to meeting in office.

Also, we’re young & new, and want to keep things transparent; and so, the pay for this job is up to INR 6LPA, depending on work experience and fit! If this doesn’t work for you, no worries, we get it :)
