· A calm, precise approach and a high standard of finishing.

· Portfolio submission with projects showcasing relevant projects.

· Proficient in both Afrikaans and English

· Experience with AI design tools such as DALL·E, Midjourney, Runway ML, Luminar Neo or Designify will be considered an advantage.

· Collaborative by nature, with respect for the process and the team.

· Appreciates simplicity, order and the beauty of well-made things.
