About you

You understand that a strong brand is more than a collection of visual assets. It needs a clear point of view, a recognisable personality and a consistent expression that connects with its audience.
You are equally comfortable discussing the bigger picture and focusing on the smallest creative detail. You can shape a concept, explain the thinking behind it and guide a team through to excellent execution. You know when to protect consistency, when to challenge the expected and when an idea needs further development.
As a leader, you set a high standard without limiting creativity. You give clear direction, provide constructive feedback and create an environment in which talented people can do their best work.
Most importantly, you are excited by the opportunity to build a distinctive creative identity and help Relax Gaming stand out in a competitive international market.
