We’re looking for an ambitious Midweight Creative to join an independent agency, working across shopper marketing, activations, new business and integrated campaigns.
You’ll be coming up with ideas that live beyond traditional advertising — from shopper platforms and retail experiences to promotions, experiential, events and activations. You’ll take ideas from the initial concept through to execution, working across the full shopper journey in Off Trade and On Trade, with Global Travel Retail experience a bonus.
Day to day, you’ll be:
- Coming up with big, engaging creative ideas for shopper, BTL and activation briefs.
- Developing concepts and bringing them to life through moodboards, visual references and scamps.
- Art directing 2D and 3D designers across retail spaces, displays and wider campaign assets.
- Working closely with Creative, Strategy and Design to develop ideas and turn them into strong creative work.
- Helping shape creative toolkits and overseeing their rollout across design teams.
- Getting involved in copy when needed, whether that’s writing yourself or working alongside a copywriter.
- Getting under the skin of brands, audiences and the wider FMCG landscape to make sure your ideas are both creatively strong and commercially relevant.
What we’re looking for:
You’ll have around 3+ years’ experience in a creative role, ideally with a background in shopper, retail, BTL or activation work.
You’ll need to be conceptual, with a portfolio that shows strong ideas. You should be comfortable turning an idea into a clear visual story and creating good-quality scamps to brief designers.
You’ll also be:
- Familiar with the FMCG world and how brands operate within it.
- Confident using Keynote, Photoshop and other creative tools, including AI.
- Naturally curious about culture, design and what’s happening creatively.
- Good at finding and using visual references to push ideas forward.
- Comfortable working across disciplines and taking a flexible approach to your craft.
- Ambitious about making work that gets noticed and, ideally, wins awards.
- Positive, energetic and someone people genuinely enjoy working with.
