Key Responsibilities

• Develop strong creative concepts and visual direction for brand and integrated campaigns.
• Turn briefs and business challenges into compelling creative ideas, rather than simply executing supplied solutions.
• Think 360°, translating campaign ideas across digital, social, email, web, video, advertising, events, print and other touchpoints.
• Help shape and evolve the creative vision for our brands, ensuring each remains distinctive and consistent.
• Inspire and engage teams in brand and campaign thinking, clearly communicating the creative vision and bringing others on the journey.

• Work directly with stakeholders to understand objectives, challenge briefs constructively and recommend creative solutions.
• Present creative concepts confidently and clearly communicate the thinking behind them.
• Manage multiple projects, priorities and deadlines while maintaining high creative standards.
• Bring fresh ideas, inspiration and an agency mindset to our in-house Creative team.
• Act as a trusted senior creative partner to the Head of Creative, helping to maintain direction and momentum across priority projects when required.
• Demonstrate leadership through creative vision, collaboration, influence and example, without relying on formal line-management responsibility.
• Provide creative guidance and support to junior designers as the team grows.
• Keep up to date with developments in branding, campaigns, design and emerging creative technology.

About You

You’ll be an experienced designer with a strong portfolio demonstrating brand design, creative concepts and integrated campaign work.

You’ll combine excellent design craft with strong conceptual thinking, and be comfortable taking a brief, developing the creative idea and considering how it comes to life across a full campaign.

You’ll also be someone who can inspire and influence others. You’ll communicate your vision clearly, encourage people to contribute and build enthusiasm around ideas, while remaining collaborative and open to different perspectives.
