Graphic Designer at Kava

Are you looking for a JOB?

One that is Orderly. Predictable. Safe. One with guaranteed outcomes, with set annual increments where you work strictly eight hours a day, five days a week, come rain or shine?

If this is you, sorry, Kava is not for you. We don’t do safe and predictable.

However… If you are seeking an ADVENTURE. A Space ship ride, more like. If you believe life is too short to be spent playing safe, hiding and posing. If you thrive in chaos and uncertainty, building stuff from ground up, only from your imagination (not Google). If you like dancing with fear of the unknown, excited at the possibility that your success will likely change lots of lives – for good.

If this is you, then Kava is your kind of gig, and you’re our kind of guy.

Apply now and let’s go disrupt something!
