Senior Designer

About Us

Cheil Worldwide is the 11 th -largest creative agency in the world. Headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, we were founded by Samsung in 1973 to grow its local and global business. While Samsung is still one of our main clients, our roster has evolved to include other globally recognized brands such as Adidas, Coca-Cola, ESPN, Lego, Nivea, PayPal, Starbucks, and many more.

Cheil Inside is our small but mighty brand studio. Cheil Inside serves as the lead agency partner for all Samsung Corporate Brand Marketing initiatives in North America. It’s the think tank and creative partner to the look, sound and feel of all Samsung imaging and collateral. Our team focuses on creative problem-solving and share a passion for developing groundbreaking ideas rooted in data, driven by insights, and enabled by innovative technology.

And that brings us to you… or rather you to us.

We’re a lean, highly collaborative team, and we support and value everyone’s input as equal stakeholders with a common goal. We’re problem-solvers by nature, so a team-player with an optimistic attitude, good communication skills and enthusiasm for collaboration will thrive here. Comfort in an in-house agency setting is also a huge plus.
