MOJO Agency is looking for a Senior Brand Design Lead to join our team. This is a key leadership role for a highly experienced designer with outstanding expertise in brand identity, a strong creative vision, and a proven track record of leading both projects and creative teams within an agency environment.

As our Brand Design Lead, you will define the creative standard for the agency, guide and mentor our designers, lead the development of distinctive brand identities, and serve as a trusted creative reference across the team.

MOJO Agency is an independent creative agency based in Brussels, exclusively dedicated to organisations creating positive social and environmental impact.

We partner with foundations, associations, European institutions, international NGOs, purpose-driven businesses, and public organisations to strengthen their visibility, shape compelling narratives, and turn ambitious missions into meaningful impact.

From climate action and child protection to democracy, ethical finance, and human rights, we help organisations communicate with greater clarity, creativity, and influence.

Our clients include Greenpeace, the Belgian Red Cross, Oxfam, Solidaris, ILGA-Europe, Missing Children Europe, the European Climate Foundation, and many others. Watch our cases online. 

Our expertise spans brand strategy and visual identity, campaigns, digital communications, web design and development, editorial content, and motion design.

At MOJO, we believe design is far more than aesthetics. It is a strategic tool that helps organisations mobilise people, shift perceptions, and accelerate positive change.

We are looking for a Brand Design Lead to drive the creative development of brand identity projects across our client portfolio. Working closely with our Creative Lead and alongside our in-house design team, you will take ownership of the entire creative process, from strategic brief to final delivery.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone with a strong creative point of view, exceptional craft, and the confidence to guide brand projects from concept to execution. You will define the creative direction, ensure the highest standards of design quality, and elevate the work produced across the agency.

As the agency’s reference for brand design, you will mentor and inspire the design team, challenge ideas constructively, present and defend creative work with clients, and continuously refine our processes, methodologies, and creative standards.

Brand identity and creative direction

• Lead the creative development of brand identity projects from strategic concept to final delivery.
• Define and steer the visual direction of each project in close collaboration with the Creative Director.
• Translate strategy into distinctive, coherent and impactful visual identities.
• Ensure consistency, quality and attention to detail across every deliverable.
• Develop and oversee complete brand systems, including visual identities, brand guidelines, editorial design, publications, campaigns, digital assets, social media, presentations, motion, video and web experiences.

Multichannel brand design

• Lead the design and evolution of brands across both print and digital environments.
• Create compelling visual experiences for publications, reports, campaigns, websites, interfaces, presentations, motion graphics, video and social media.
• Adapt each brand thoughtfully across channels while preserving its integrity and distinctive character.
• Bring together conceptual thinking, strong design craft and a solid understanding of production requirements across both print and digital.

Creative leadership

• Lead, mentor and support the agency’s design team, helping each designer develop their skills and creative confidence.
• Provide art direction throughout projects and ensure a consistently high standard across all creative work.
• Review, challenge and refine design work before client presentation.
• Present and defend creative proposals with clarity, confidence and strategic rationale.
• Act as the agency’s reference for brand identity, typography, editorial design and visual systems.

Collaboration and agency development

• Collaborate closely with strategists, copywriters, UX/UI designers, developers and motion designers to deliver cohesive brand experiences.
• Continuously improve the agency’s design processes, tools, templates and ways of working.
• Contribute to MOJO’s creative culture by sharing knowledge, encouraging experimentation and raising the overall quality of our work.
• Support the agency’s visibility through portfolio development, award submissions and selected new business opportunities when relevant.

We are looking for an experienced Brand Design Lead with a proven ability to create distinctive brand identities, lead multidisciplinary creative projects, and inspire others to produce their best work.

The following are essential requirements:

• Minimum 5 years of professional experience in brand design, including significant experience within a branding or creative agency.
• Proven experience leading creative projects and mentoring designers in an agency environment.
• Strong expertise in brand identity design and creative direction, with the ability to translate strategic thinking into coherent and distinctive visual systems.
• Demonstrated experience designing and art directing across both print and digital media, including editorial design, campaigns, websites, social media, motion, video, and presentations.
• Excellent understanding of typography, layout, colour, visual systems, and production across both print and digital.
• Expert proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, After Effects), Microsoft Suite (Power Point, Word) Figma, and AI-powered creative tools.
• An outstanding portfolio showcasing end-to-end brand identity projects across multiple sectors and touchpoints.
• Full professional proficiency in both English and French, with the confidence to present work, facilitate workshops, and interact directly with clients.
• Strong organisational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple projects while maintaining a consistently high standard of work.

Beyond experience and technical skills, we are looking for someone who shares the way we approach our work.

You take ownership. You don’t wait for direction. You make informed decisions, take responsibility for your work, and help move projects forward.

You raise the standard. Through your craft, your feedback, and your mentorship, you help others produce stronger work and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.

You think beyond the deliverable. You understand that every design decision shapes not only a brand, but also the relationship with the client and the reputation of the agency.

You leave things better than you found them. Whether it’s a project, a process, a template, or a way of working, you actively contribute to making the agency stronger over time.

You care about quality. You have a sharp eye for detail, strong design judgement, and the discipline to deliver thoughtful, consistent work.

You are dependable. You honour your commitments, communicate openly, and can be trusted to deliver high-quality work on time.

You stay curious. You actively follow developments in branding, design, culture, technology, and creative practice, and continually seek to refine your craft.

You enjoy working on projects that matter. Every organisation we support is working to create positive social or environmental change.

You have real ownership. As a senior member of the team, you’ll have the autonomy to shape creative direction, influence decisions, and leave your mark on the agency.

You collaborate with people who care. You’ll work alongside strategists, designers, developers, copywriters and motion designers who value thoughtful ideas, strong craft and meaningful impact.

You join a human-sized, independent agency. We move quickly, trust one another, keep hierarchy to a minimum, and give everyone the opportunity to make a tangible contribution.

You enjoy flexibility. We work in a hybrid model, with a minimum of three days per week at our coworking space, Le Marais 407 in Forest, Brussels.
