About the role

You will help build a creative function that connects the brief to a usable final asset. The role involves choosing a coherent direction, balancing production effort and reviewing work across disciplines without treating every deliverable as the same design task.

What you will do

  • Translate business and campaign objectives into clear creative briefs, direction and review criteria.
  • Coordinate visual standards across interface, image and video work while allowing each medium to serve its purpose.
  • Plan capacity, skill coverage and review ownership before committing to creative production.
  • Resolve conflicting feedback with marketing, development and project owners, making the approved direction explicit.
  • Set practical expectations for source files, export quality, asset provenance and supervision of developing contributors.

What you should bring

  • Creative leadership with a portfolio demonstrating judgement across relevant visual or time-based disciplines.
  • Ability to explain design decisions, review unfamiliar formats and balance quality with production constraints.
  • Experience guiding contributors through specific feedback and resolving inconsistent stakeholder direction.

Examples of work in this role

  • A creative direction and production plan matched to the brief and available skills.
  • A review framework covering message clarity, visual consistency, file quality and asset usage.

Working arrangements

  • Keep decisions, progress, and blockers visible through agreed communication channels.
  • Reporting lines, decision authority, working hours, equipment needs, and location eligibility will be discussed during recruitment.
  • Compensation, employment terms, and any benefits will be agreed during recruitment.

What to include in your application

  • Include your CV, availability, and a short explanation of why this work interests you.
  • Show a campaign or creative system you directed. Explain how you established the direction, reviewed different formats and resolved a disagreement or production constraint.
  • Remove confidential information from samples and share only work you have permission to disclose.
