Big ideas. Brilliant storytelling. Still close to the craft.

We're working with an ambitious independent creative agency looking for a copy-led Creative Director to join its senior team in January.

This is for someone who has grown into creative leadership without losing the thing that got them there in the first place – a love of ideas, words and great storytelling.

You'll lead the creative thinking across major client relationships, finding the organising idea behind a brief and turning it into work that can live across content, social, film, digital, experiential and integrated campaigns.

And you'll still make things.

You'll write. Concept. Shape narratives and scripts. Get into the deck. Partner with Art Directors and Designers. Challenge the work. And help talented creative teams make good ideas considerably better.

The role

You'll be a senior creative voice within the agency, working closely with Strategy, Client Services and Production from the earliest stages of a brief through to final delivery.

You'll take complicated business and audience challenges and find the simple, compelling creative thought at the heart of them – then build ideas capable of travelling across channels, audiences and formats.

Alongside the work, you'll lead and develop creative talent, build trusted relationships with senior clients and play an important role in new business and the continued development of the agency's creative offering.

This is a relatively lean environment, so we're not looking for someone who wants layers of people between themselves and the work. You'll have genuine influence, but you'll also be expected to roll your sleeves up.

We're looking for

An established Creative Director – or potentially an exceptional ACD already operating at this level – with a strong copywriting and conceptual background.

You'll ideally bring:

• A strong portfolio of conceptual, integrated creative work.
• Excellent copywriting, storytelling and narrative skills.
• Experience developing brand platforms, organising ideas and content ecosystems, not simply one-off executions.
• The ability to turn complex messaging into simple, engaging creative.
• Strong understanding of contemporary social and content.
• Experience across multiple channels including film, digital, social and experiential.
• Hands-on involvement from concept and scripts through production and delivery.
• Experience leading and mentoring multidisciplinary creative teams.
• Confidence presenting to and challenging senior clients.
• Commercial awareness and experience contributing to pitches and account growth.

Above all, you'll have high standards for the work and the ability to bring others along.

Why this one?

It's an opportunity to have considerably more influence than you might get within a larger network.

You'll work directly with the agency's senior leadership, have a genuine voice in shaping the creative product and help build the next stage of the agency rather than simply inherit an established department.

So if you're already a Creative Director but want to get closer to the work again – or you're an ACD who's effectively doing the job and ready to make the step – this could be a really interesting move.

Outstanding freelance Art Directors looking to transition into a permanent role will also be considered.

Beautifully crafted ideas. Brilliantly executed.

A fast-growing Creative Content Agency is looking for an exceptional Senior Art Director to help shape the next chapter of its creative output.

This isn't a traditional advertising agency role.

It's an opportunity for an Art Director who combines outstanding conceptual thinking with exceptional visual craft—someone who loves bringing ideas to life across integrated campaigns, social-first content, film, brand platforms and digital experiences.

Working alongside a highly collaborative team of Copywriters, Strategists, Designers and Producers, you'll create work that earns attention, builds brands and delivers real impact for global clients.

If you're happiest turning ambitious ideas into beautifully executed creative, we'd love to hear from you.

The Opportunity

This is a genuinely hands-on creative role where you'll still be designing—not simply directing others.

You'll help shape creative thinking from the earliest stages, translating concepts into compelling visual worlds that excite clients and inspire audiences.

One day you could be creating the visual identity for a global campaign. The next, developing key visuals, designing social-first creative, art directing a film shoot or building brand systems that work seamlessly across every touchpoint.

You'll work closely with the Head of Design while partnering with Copywriters and Strategists to ensure every idea is brought to life with exceptional creativity and craft.

What You'll Be Doing

• Developing visually compelling creative concepts across integrated campaigns, social-first content and brand platforms.
• Leading the visual development of campaigns from initial concept through to final delivery.
• Creating exceptional key visuals, layouts, presentations, treatments, mood boards and design systems.
• Designing beautifully crafted creative yourself—not simply directing others.
• Art directing photography, film and content shoots from pre-production through to delivery.
• Collaborating closely with Copywriters, Strategists, Motion Designers and Producers to create outstanding creative work.
• Presenting ideas confidently, bringing clients on the creative journey through both strategic thinking and exceptional craft.
• Maintaining the highest creative standards across every piece of work leaving the studio.
• Mentoring junior creatives and helping elevate the visual craft across the wider team.

About You

You'll have built your career within an integrated creative agency, Creative Content Agency or design studio, with a portfolio that demonstrates exceptional craft and conceptual thinking.

You'll bring:

• Outstanding visual thinking with exceptional design craft.
• Strong conceptual Art Direction experience.
• A brilliant eye for typography, composition, colour and imagery.
• Experience art directing photography and film shoots.
• Advanced Adobe Creative Suite and Figma skills.
• A portfolio showcasing branding, integrated campaigns, social content, film and digital creative.
• The confidence to take ownership of projects from concept through to final execution.
• A collaborative, low-ego approach with a genuine passion for making great work even better.

Experience with motion design is advantageous but by no means essential.

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to join a fast-growing Creative Content Agency at an exciting stage of its journey.

You'll work across healthcare, technology, sport, lifestyle and consumer brands, creating everything from integrated campaigns and global brand platforms to social-first content, films and cultural moments.

Most importantly, you'll have genuine influence—not only over the work you produce, but over the future direction of the agency as it continues to grow.

If you're looking for a role where exceptional ideas, outstanding craft and collaboration sit at the heart of everything, we'd love to hear from you.

This independent creative content studio is looking for a Senior Integrated Designer to join the team on a freelance basis, working across two major integrated campaigns for globally recognised Tech brands.

Working alongside the Head of Design, you'll influence how campaigns look and feel, developing integrated creative across digital, social, film, print, OOH and content.

This is an opportunity to play a significant creative role within a highly collaborative studio, where ideas and craft carry equal weight.

You'll interpret and build upon creative direction, developing visual identities, campaign systems and integrated design that can flex across multiple channels and formats.

From concept development and presentations through to toolkits, templates and production-ready assets, you'll help ensure every piece of work is beautifully crafted and creatively consistent.

Working closely with the creative team, you'll solve design challenges, contribute fresh thinking and maintain the highest standards from initial concept through to final delivery.

What You'll Be Doing

• Create exceptional design across digital, social, print, OOH, content and film.
• Produce key visuals, layouts, presentations, treatments, toolkits and templates.
• Roll out integrated campaigns across multiple channels while maintaining creative consistency.
• Apply outstanding typography, composition, colour and graphic design craft to every project.
• Collaborate with creative, design and production teams to elevate the quality of the work.
• Prepare accurate, production-ready artwork and design assets.
• Balance creative ambition with pace, deadlines and production requirements.

What We're Looking For

You'll be an experienced Senior Integrated Designer with a portfolio that demonstrates beautifully crafted campaign work across multiple channels.

You'll have a strong background developing visual identities and campaign systems from concept, alongside exceptional graphic design fundamentals and a genuine passion for design craft.

You'll also bring:

• Significant agency experience delivering integrated creative campaigns.
• Expertise in visual identity, campaign design and design systems.
• Advanced Figma skills alongside Adobe Creative Suite.
• Strong experience across digital, social, print and OOH.
• Outstanding typography, layout and visual communication skills.
• Confidence collaborating with Creative Directors, Art Directors and Producers.
• A proactive, solutions-focused and highly collaborative approach.
• Motion design experience is advantageous but not essential.

Why Apply?

You'll join a highly respected independent creative agency working on ambitious campaigns for globally recognised brands, where collaboration, creativity and exceptional craft are valued in equal measure.

This is an opportunity to help shape work from the earliest stages, influence major integrated campaigns and work alongside some of the industry's strongest creative talent.
