We are hiring (blog post)
Keane is hiring.
We are looking for an industrious designer (maybe two) to come aboard for the next 3-6 months, with work to start around mid- to late-August.
First and foremost, we’re looking for someone with a strong creative background (print/interactive) that knows how to manage projects and client relationships.
Ultimately, we are looking for managers of one (see See 37Signals's - Hire Managers of One post). There’s no room for someone who requires a lot of direction with the nature and pace of our work.
We’re not sure if this is going to be a full-time or part-time position, so you might be able to swing it with another job; however, daytime availability is expected five days a week. Work experience with/within an agency or studio is also required.
Local folks will make things easier, but it certainly isn’t a deal breaker if you’re remote. And finally – there is no promise of permanent employment, but that’s not to say it can’t happen.
What to do next:
First, email over a resume and a cover letter/cover email about what you’re looking for in a creative position and why you’re interested in taking on this new role with Keane. You can email it to jobs [at] keanecreative.com. If you want to sweeten the deal, go into more detail about your interests, your fears, inspirations, friend us on Facebook, send us a tweet, etc.
Second, we’d like to meet you in person (if we haven’t already). We’re hosting a happy hour on July 31st at RA on Mill Ave and it would be a good time to connect with the Keane team and our friends/clients.
Third, if you have a portfolio of any type, send it over as well. PDF or online versions are preferred.
Thanks so much, don’t hesitate to send us any questions!
