Overview

Bakken & Bæck is a digital product development studio working out of Oslo, Amsterdam, Bonn and London. In close collaboration with ambitious clients, we design and build digital solutions and businesses from end to end. You might have seen our work for Vipps, Coinbase, Samsolgt, Morgenlevering, and Kron.

When we are not making world-class digital products, we are dedicated to making a friendly and inclusive workplace. We do trips, conferences and events together on a regular basis, and we are always committed to cultivate a company that embraces differences. We strongly believe in flexibility, and know that creativity doesn’t necessarily always happen between 9 and 5.

At Bakken & Bæck you’ll be given a lot of freedom while translating complicated problems into easy-to-use products. This means managing your own priorities, trying out new things and working a flexible hours’ scheme.

Design is at the heart of everything we do.

We are now looking for experienced Brand Designers to join our team in Oslo, Bonn, London, or Amsterdam.

As a Brand Designer on our team, you will play a key role in the strategic and conceptual phases of our projects, and develop well-crafted visual identities for new products. You will work closely with our product and UX design teams, development teams, copywriters, photographers, illustrators, and video/animation producers across a range of projects, to ensure a consistent implementation of the brand across platforms.

We’re looking for someone who enjoys tackling complex problems, and designing smart and simple solutions. A broad-minded, creative, strategic thinker who constantly seeks new and innovative ways to design for brand experience; graphics, photography, digital, and environment. It is important to us to be a good team player who can collaborate well with developers, clients, and other designers.

Qualifications:

  • 3+ years of experience with quality brand identity work on multiple platforms (digital/product/print)
  • Strong concept development and visual skills
  • Experience working collaboratively between cross-multidisciplinary teams.
  • Strong communication skills: you can articulately explain and document your process, present your work and communicate your design decisions.
  • Proficiency in technical design tools (Adobe creative suite, Sketch, Figma), as well as the ability to understand what tools fit the project

Bonus if you have an interest in and/or experience with:

  • Working with animation or motion graphic
  • Developing custom fonts
  • Illustrations
  • Working with code creatively

Perks and Benefits

We take great pride in making Bakken & Bæck a friendly and inclusive workplace, and we care for both your professional and personal well-being. Here are some of the things you can expect if you join us:

  • Doing things together
    Working across offices, we like to get together as often as we can. Yearly trips, meet-ups, parties, dinners or even work on an interesting project. We’ve previously hosted a one-day conference called An Interesting Day and we have an event series called DDD (Define, Design, Develop) where we invite people from different industries to talk about a specific theme.
  • Power your own ideas
    Do you have a project you’ve always dreamed of? A company you admire, or a problem you are dying to solve? At B&B you’ll have a say in what projects we take on.
  • Remote when you need
    Sometimes we wish to work from home or some other place like a cabin or your parents’ house. We try our best to keep location from obstructing collaboration.
  • Parental leave and baby bonus
    We got the moms and dads in the company to design our very own “baby kit”, that includes a €2000 bonus, so you can get a head start on your new parental adventures.
  • Keep it healthy
    We provide an extensive support package that includes a solid health insurance, sponsored therapy sessions, access to physiological treatment and a lot more.
  • Conferences and courses
    You’ll get a yearly budget of €1500 to go wherever you need to stay inspired and learn new things.
