Graphic Designer 100% (f/m/d)

The Hotz Group is a brand-oriented partner for value creation, shaping and building new futures for companies at strategic turning points. We work with investors, owners, and top management – from our headquarters in Switzerland and our locations in Los Angeles, Singapore, Hamburg, and New Delhi.
 
Our clients include owner-managed companies, national and hidden champions, as well as large international corporations.
 
Building an Integrated Creative Team 
We are in a phase of development and are strategically expanding our creative competencies. In this context, we are developing a powerful design team at the interface of business strategy, brand, and design. The team will work for all companies in the group in the future; you can find more information at https://Hotz.studio. 
 
Our ambition is to combine strategic and entrepreneurial thinking with excellent creative and design work. We do not see strategy and design as separate disciplines, but as mutual enablers that create sustainable value for companies and brands. For our creative team, we are looking for candidates who want to actively shape this path.
 
Shared Understanding of Collaboration
We are looking for personalities who enjoy contributing to a dynamic environment and are happy to develop solutions together with other talents that exceed the expectations of a classic agency. We value an agile, uncomplicated, and pragmatic way of working, initiative, and a strong sense of teamwork. We work at eye level – regardless of function or hierarchy. We are looking for people who communicate openly, share knowledge, receive feedback constructively, and actively include other perspectives.

As a Graphic Designer, you will work on branding projects, visual identities, and digital applications. You will precisely develop visual systems, consistently apply brands across different touchpoints, and work closely with Art Directors, Strategists, and Consultants. The focus is on your design quality – at the same time, you are interested in the content and strategic contexts behind the design.
