About The Role

We're looking for a Brand Designer to help shape identity systems that hold up across every touchpoint, from first concept to final craft. You'll work closely with the Design Director and Creative Director on concept development, turning strategy and creative direction into work that's considered, precise, and built to last.

It's a hands-on role for someone who thinks in systems, sweats the details, and wants to grow across branding, type, motion, and digital design. Open to all levels, whether you're early in your career and hungry to learn or an experienced designer looking for real ownership.

Your Responsibilities

  1. You spend most of your time designing, with a strong command of typography, colour, illustration, iconography, and art direction, composing them into world-class brand identities and helping others do the same.
  2. You collaborate closely with the team, learning from seniors and supporting junior members.
  3. Turn strategy and creative direction into work that lives across print, digital, motion, and environments.
  4. Explore widely before you converge, through sketching, moodboarding, and type studies.
  5. Prep production-ready files across packaging, signage, print, and digital.
  6. Work closely with strategists, motion designers, and developers to keep everything consistent, and keep your files clean and well-archived.
  7. Give and take honest critique in design reviews, and as you grow, take the lead on projects, mentor others, and present your work to clients.
  8. You're fluent in Figma, InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop. </aside>

What you’ll gain

Please note: This is open to all levels, so the compensation package will be discussed on a case-by-case basis.

  1. Work shoulder to shoulder with the CD and DD. No layers of management in between, just direct collaboration with the people setting the bar.
  2. Real client work and creative strategy from day one. You'll shape brands that matter.
  3. Genuine ownership. Your thinking and recommendations can move real projects and help steer where the studio goes next.
  4. 4 days onsite in our Ho Chi Minh City studio, with Fridays from home.
  5. A clear path to grow. You'll have a six-month review and an annual review with your direct manager.
  6. Performance that's seen and rewarded, through pay increases and an annual bonus.
  7. A studio that invests in you. Frequent team-building, weekly learning sessions, and funded training to keep raising your craft.
  8. Annual leave, public holidays, and a full studio closure over Tết. </aside>

Our Culture

Core’s culture is built on three core values:

  1. Relentless optimism. Optimism for us is a discipline, not a mood. We choose to focus on solutions, and we treat setbacks as temporary, isolated hurdles, never permanent defeats.
  2. Excellence-driven. We don’t aim to just tick the boxes. What drives us is the constant pursuit of higher standards and sustainable growth at both the personal and company levels.
  3. Co-create. Team, team, and team. We don’t believe in the one-superstar model. Everything we make is teamwork, fueled by a shared hunger for creative excellence. Everyone keeps their ego in check, from founder to intern. </aside>
