This is an exciting opportunity for a Senior Digital Designer to join a fast-growing agency with a great culture where you can really make your mark. You would be working across a wide range of web and browser-based content - taking the lead role in the creation and delivery of digital and content marketing.

You should have a great blend of skills across digital design and creative thinking. Naturally you should have strong digital agency experience and understand the importance of good communication. An excellent range of hands-on digital production skills and proficiency in the full Adobe Creative Suite / Sketch is a must.

You would be joining a team of B2B specialists dedicated to creating results-driven marketing for ambitious businesses. It goes without saying you should be an extremely talented Digital Designer, but you should also be comfortable creating graphic/illustrative elements - using creativity to solve complex business problems.

As a small but rapidly growing agency, this is a fantastic opportunity to help grow the creative team over time, and ultimately lead it from the top, therefore it would also be advantageous to have experience and a passion for mentoring junior designers.
