The Role

A typographer in the making: you are detail-driven, craft obsessed and excited to explore typefaces, wordmarks, and their application within brand identities. You have a small portfolio of work and big ambitions. No experience or education required.

Your Responsibilities

1. Working alongside our Senior Typography Designer, you’ll be honing your skills on live projects within multi-disciplinary teams.
2. You are hungry to be hands-on with type development, working from initial sketches to final production and delivery. You embrace both creative exploration and technical refinement.
3. You support, study and learn from the team around you as a matter of necessity.
4. You demonstrate a relentless interest in the studio, are proactive, and look to support the team however you can.
5. You have a willingness to work in person in our London studio, and are able to attend both work and meetings on time.

Our Responsibilities

1. We will ensure you are given meaningful feedback throughout your internship to support your personal development and professional development.
2. We will ensure you are engaged with the realities of the agency, doing the same work we do.
3. We will ensure you have frequent access to our team, and opportunities to learn from them where possible.
4. We ensure Koto is an equal environment for all its employees.

Our Culture

• At Koto we encourage our team to be ‘rationally optimistic’ about the potential of our work, our clients, their businesses, and the power of brand.
• We pursue the best briefs, want to inspire meaningful work, and for those interested provide an opportunity to make the work of their lives. We are actively cultivating leadership, culture and spaces to encourage this.
• We work in person with an optional WFH day on Friday, and an additional two weeks remote a year. We believe this produces the best work, mentoring opportunities, collective learning and culture.
• We encourage autonomy in each member of our team, allowing them to manage their own time, hours and personal commitments appropriately to complete tasks.
