Junior Graphic Designer

Junior Graphic Designer

Salary: £25,500 + Benefits

Location: Stevington, Bedford

Start Date: Tuesday, 1 September 2026

Application Deadline: 9 July 2026

About the Role

We’re bucking the trend. While a lot of the design industry is turning its back on graduates, we’re doing the opposite. We are actively seeking fresh, untrained talent with the drive and tenacity to grow into some of the finest Editorial Designers in the publishing industry.

Working in a professional design studio isn’t easy. It demands graft, attention to detail, and a genuine desire to get better every day. If that sounds like you, we want to hear from you.

This is an opportunity to join our world-renowned studio at the ground level – trained from day one, supported every step of the way, and set up to build a long and rewarding career in editorial design.

What We’re Looking For

The right candidate will be:

• Tenacious – you push through challenges rather than shy away from them.
• Hard-working – you understand that mastering a craft takes time and effort.
• Detail-obsessed – you notice what others miss and take pride in getting it right.
• A team player – you contribute to a supportive environment and value the support of those around you.
• Hungry to learn – you’re excited by the prospect of developing real, marketable skills in a specialist studio.

What Makes Us Different

Dedicated 1-to-1 training from day one

You’ll have a senior team member assigned to you as a personal mentor from the moment you walk through the door. No question goes unanswered. No one is left to figure things out alone.

A supportive, encouraging studio culture

We’ve built an environment where people genuinely look out for one another. You’ll feel it from your first day. Collaboration isn’t a buzzword here – it’s how we work.

Real variety, real experience

Our studio works across a wide range of projects. You’ll gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced environment and be exposed to a variety of work that many Designers don’t encounter until years into their careers.

A cohort start – you won’t be the only new face

We’re bringing in a group of new talent all starting together on 1 September 2026. You’ll go through training alongside like-minded peers, which makes the early weeks more enjoyable and the learning more effective.

Benefits

We believe good work deserves good rewards. Here’s what comes with the role:

• Paid overtime – we’re a deadline-driven studio and we make sure that extra effort is recognised and compensated.
• Vitality health insurance – private medical cover from day one.
• Employee Assistance Programme.
• Performance bonuses.
• Enhanced pension contributions after five years of service.
• Company-paid social events.
• Work from home flexibility once your probation period is complete.
• 28 days holiday to start which increases after each year of service.
