With a sharp eye on emerging trends and industry opportunities, you’ll help steer projects toward standout, award-winning creative work.

• Provide growth opportunities for junior team members, empowering them to create great work.
• Confidently defend and advocate for the team's creative vision.
• Coordinate internal resources, working with the Director of Operations to ensure projects remain on schedule.
• Create and manage budgets, meet profit targets, and maintain timely billing. Handle external facilities booking, purchase orders, and invoicing.
• Safely manage secure client content, documenting and archiving projects upon completion.
• Organise internal reviews for all design rounds, collaborating with Creative Directors to ensure projects/assets are on brief and completed to a high standard.
• Keep assets and projects highly organised and streamlined in line with the team’s and company’s established processes and standards.
• Be ultimately responsible for all client deliveries, making sure the print team is delivering projects to the right specifications.
• Build and maintain an extensive and evolving network of creative talent: including designers, photographers, illustrators, retouchers, and sketch artists - and source the right talent for each brief.
• Keep up to date with new and emerging talent, fostering relationships with freelancers and collaborators to ensure ZEALOT stays connected to the industry’s best and brightest.

The ideal candidate will:

• Have a great interest, curiosity and understanding of design, especially key art.
