Lovers
Lovers is a creative supergroup that helps brands express themselves with flair and inspire people.
Projects range from brand identity work to communication campaigns, as well as tactical communication design, including books, films, websites and signage.
The team’s collective experience covers a broad range of sectors, including education (Perlego, Plymouth College of Art), food (Dishoom, My/Mo Mochi Ice Cream), dance (English National Ballet, Google Arts & Culture), the environment (Greenpeace, Government of Jersey), sex (Museum of Sex), death (Poppy’s Funerals), music (Green Man, Alexandra Palace) and helping young people (NSPCC, The Scouts).

Inside the Company
Lovers believes that in order to build impactful brands, the team needs to care. This means that the choice of projects is limited to only the most exciting.
For each project, the permanent studio of creative directors and producers leads the selection of talent from the collective. Then focus is placed on motivating and mobilising these bespoke teams, maximising project chemistry and skill fit.

Culture and Benefits
The company places importance on nurturing collective energy, sharing ideas outside of work (via a dedicated platform, Pillow Talk) and getting to know each other.
Bringing in specific talent for particular projects provides the extended Lovers network with a chance to make new friends and learn from each other. The studio team is supported with individually focused professional training and career development, along with perks including access to a Lovers ‘leisure and pleasure’ fund.
Entry-Level Opportunities
The studio team makes time monthly to find the next generation of Lovers. Portfolios can be emailed 24/7 to [email protected]. The collective model welcomes a really broad range of communications skills, from graphic designers to illustrators, photographers, filmmakers and more.
Occasionally there are permanent openings in the studio team, sometimes for junior roles, which are advertised on If You Could. And while there isn’t currently an internship programme, but the company is looking at developing a scheme in 2022.
