WHO YOU ARE

You are a mid-weight digital creative who leans mostly towards design.

You can hold your own in and enjoy exploring other creative areas.

You need to be able to help come up with ideas for social campaigns and posts. Don’t worry, they don’t all have to be golden nuggets, we just need someone who isn’t afraid to join in and give their perspective during brainstorming sessions.

We’ve got the need, the need for going really quickly. Due to the reactive nature of working in digital marketing means you quite often have to strike while the iron is hot. This means you’ve got to be able to keep pace and work on creative that can sometimes have tight deadlines. We just need someone who can reliably hit a great balance between quality and speed. Don’t worry, the rest of the team will very much be here to support you, provide you with feedback and to help you grow into the very attractive and charming creative you want to see when you look in the mirror.

You have a willingness to try out new things, explore new design styles and look for constant creative solutions to new and interesting problems.
