About the roles
If you’re a Creative Team who can come up with incredible ideas and have a strong desire to do some good in this world, then we want to meet you.
You’ll be joining a talented and friendly team of copywriters and designers who recently won In-House Agency of the Year at the Drum Awards.
We think and work a like an agency – we’re not here to simply cross the T’s and dot the I’s. Our work is all about finding the big ideas, so we need this to be one of your superpowers (and you’ll need a portfolio to prove it).
Our team takes on a variety of briefs from across the organisation and things move quickly. One day, you might be working on an experiential event or an OOH campaign. The next, you could be brainstorming ideas for a social media campaign or designing a policy report. Whatever the brief, you’ll be taking projects from concept to completion. Sometimes you’ll work together, but sometimes we’ll partner you with other designers and writers in the team, so you must be happy to collaborate with other creative minds.
About you
You have a proven track record of creating integrated campaign concepts that can be delivered across all media. You have experience of working to a brief, understanding different audience needs and applying this knowledge to creative solutions.
You’ll need real understanding of social media, an exceptional grasp of brand voice and design, meticulous attention to detail, and all the skills and versatility you’d expect from a top-notch copywriter and designer.
The designer in the team must be an expert across the Adobe Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign)
Does this sound like you? Then let’s have a chat.
About the team
You’ll be joining a friendly, talented and dedicated team who recently won In-house agency of the year at The Drum awards. You will work closely with your Creative Lead, Copy Lead and fellow writers and designers to deliver creative content to highest standard across all areas of our communication.
