INK KARTEL — TATTOO ARTIST WANTED
QUALITY OVER EVERYTHING.
Ink Kartel is looking for an experienced tattoo artist to join our studio.
We’re not looking to simply fill a chair.
We’re looking for an established artist who takes their work seriously, has their own identity and wants to work alongside other artists who genuinely care about the standard of work leaving the studio.
WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR
You must be an experienced tattoo artist with an existing client base and a strong, consistent portfolio of healed and fresh work.
Style isn’t everything to us — quality is.
Whether your speciality is black & grey, realism, fine line, traditional, blackwork, colour or something completely different, we’re interested in artists who have mastered what they do and take pride in every piece they put their name to.
We want someone who:
- Has professional studio experience
- Has an established client base and can manage their own bookings
- Produces consistently high-quality tattoo work
- Has a strong portfolio
- Maintains exceptional hygiene and professional standards
- Is reliable and respects their clients’ time
- Takes pride in the full client experience, not just the tattoo
- Has their own style, personality and creative direction
- Understands the importance of presenting their work properly online
- Wants to grow alongside the studio rather than simply rent a chair
THE INK KARTEL STANDARD
Quality is number one. Always.
We want Ink Kartel to be a studio where people recognise the standard before they even recognise the artist.
That means no rushed work, no cutting corners and no dropping standards just to get another appointment through the door.
We care about the details — from the initial consultation and design process through to the finished tattoo, photography and aftercare.
Every artist keeps their own individuality.
You don’t work for Ink Kartel. You become part of it.
WHAT WE OFFER
Ink Kartel is an independent studio built by tattoo artists, for tattoo artists.
You’ll be joining a creative environment where you can continue building your own name while being part of a wider brand with serious ambitions.
We offer:
- A professional, modern studio environment
- Freedom to develop your own tattoo style and identity
- Support with studio marketing and social media exposure
- Opportunities to collaborate on content and creative projects
- A team that actually cares about progressing the studio
- An environment where quality is valued above squeezing in as many appointments as possible
- The opportunity to grow alongside the Ink Kartel brand
We’re building something bigger than just another tattoo shop.
THIS WON’T BE FOR EVERYONE.
And that’s intentional.
We’re not interested in filling spaces for the sake of it. We would rather wait for the right artist than compromise on the standard of Ink Kartel.
If you’re experienced, already have your own clientele and believe your work belongs alongside ours, we want to see it.
Send us your portfolio, social media and a little about yourself.
