We’re looking for an experienced Digital Design Lead to take a leading role across a broad mix of digital, brand, retail and experience-led projects.

You’ll be joining a highly creative agency where digital sits alongside wider brand and physical experiences, giving you the opportunity to shape ambitious, joined-up work across multiple platforms and touchpoints.

This is a senior, hands-on role for someone who can help set the creative direction, lead projects from the front and maintain a consistently high standard of work from initial concept through to final delivery.

You’ll work closely with strategy, client services, UX, developers and production teams, turning complex briefs into clear, compelling and beautifully crafted creative solutions.

A key part of the role will be supporting and developing the wider design team. You’ll provide creative direction, mentor designers at different levels and help create a collaborative environment where strong ideas and high standards can thrive.

You’ll also be confident presenting to clients, leading workshops and pitches, challenging thinking where needed and building trusted relationships throughout the creative process.

The role will include:

  • Leading digital, brand and experience-led design projects
  • Helping shape the creative direction across a range of briefs
  • Reviewing work and maintaining a consistently high level of craft
  • Mentoring and supporting designers across the team
  • Translating strategy and insight into strong creative ideas
  • Presenting work to clients and contributing to workshops and pitches
  • Working closely with UX, UI, development, strategy and production teams
  • Managing multiple projects while protecting the quality of the work
  • Contributing to the wider creative culture of the agency

You’ll need a strong portfolio showing excellent creative thinking across digital platforms and wider brand experiences, along with experience leading projects and guiding other designers.

Strong knowledge of Figma, Adobe Creative Suite and Miro is important, together with a solid understanding of UX, UI, responsive design and designing for screens.

A great opportunity for a senior digital designer or existing design lead looking for more creative ownership, responsibility and the chance to influence ambitious work within a genuinely ideas-led agency..
