Creative Art Direction & Digital Designer at Phix in Manchester

About PHIX

PHIX is a fast-growing menswear house defined by a distinctive, refined aesthetic and a strong global presence through high-profile collaborations including The Rolling Stones and David Bowie. We are investing in a creative lead who will define the visual future of the brand, elevating our output with precision, sophistication, and a modern, directional point of view.

The Role

This is a high-impact, end-to-end creative role working closely with the Founder and Marketing Manager. You will steward the evolution of PHIX’s visual identity across every touchpoint, ensuring our aesthetic remains elevated, consistent, and seasonally progressive.

We’re looking for a deeply versatile creative, someone with a strong eye for photography and video, confident in video and photo editing, shaping visual narratives, and delivering refined video, graphic, and digital assets.

While AI isn’t the core of the role, it is an important part of the future of modern content creation. We need someone who is fully aligned with that shift, someone curious, proactive, and excited to embrace new tools to enhance ideation, push creative boundaries, and expand what’s possible for PHIX.

Key Responsibilities

Define the PHIX Visual Identity

Lead the development and continual refinement of the digital brand guide, type, colour, composition, image direction, layouts, and the overall visual world of PHIX. Ensure cohesion and excellence across every channel.

Seasonal Concept Development

Own the creative ideation process for campaigns, product launches, collaborations, and special projects. Produce polished, thoughtful concepts that feel contemporary, timeless, and unmistakably PHIX.

AI-Led Innovation

Champion the use of AI as a creative accelerator. Research, test, and integrate advanced tools to enable new visual formats, streamline workflows, and inspire original digital-first content.

Versatile Digital Content Production

You must be confident across all creative mediums:

• Video:Editing, storytelling, motion graphics, and polished execution for paid social, organic reels, and brand films (Adobe Premiere essential).
• Graphics:Campaign visuals, web assets, lookbooks, paid ads, typography layouts, and digital design (Photoshop/Illustrator essential).
• Photography Direction:Ability to shape lighting, composition, and retouching direction to maintain a refined and consistent visual signature.

Creative & Commercial Alignment

Partner with the Founder and Marketing Manager to ensure all creative output supports brand positioning, commercial objectives, and performance marketing strategy.

What We’re Looking For

A Sophisticated Visual Storyteller

Strong command of visual identity, composition, typography, and refined brand storytelling.

A True Multi-Disciplinary Creative

Strong ability across video, graphics, and digital design. You should be equally comfortable crafting a cinematic paid ad, designing a campaign key visual, or developing a cohesive visual direction for a seasonal drop.

Experience in Direction & Execution

The ability to define an artistic vision and deliver it with precision, from concept to final asset.

Forward-Thinking & AI-Driven

Genuine interest in pushing boundaries through AI, using it as a creative tool, not a shortcut.

Ownership & Independence

A self-directed creative who can manage multiple projects, uphold standards, and be the central point of accountability for all visual output.

Organised & Performance-Aware

Comfort working with deadlines, cross-functional needs, and assets designed for performance marketing.

Why Join PHIX?

This is a rare opportunity to shape the visual DNA of a rapidly scaling fashion brand. You will not simply create assets, you will define how PHIX looks, feels, and communicates globally in a new era of digital creativity.
