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.

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)
