Designer, Midweight - Social & Performance

We are looking for a midweight designer to join the team on a part-time basis - 13 days per month.

Volume and pace are part of the job. So is quality.

- Turn around strong V1s quickly and iterate efficiently through client feedback rounds

- Contribute to a test-and-learn approach, applying creative learnings from performance data over time

- Minimum three years of design experience in a social, content or performance marketing agency
- A portfolio demonstrating work for beauty, lifestyle, wellness or drinks brands - ideally showing content that was built to perform, not just to look good
- Sharp taste and trend awareness - you know what is cutting through on the platforms your clients live on, and you can push creative boundaries while keeping brand integrity intact
- Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite - Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects are the core tools of this role
- Confident video editor - able to clip, cut and finish existing footage to a publish-ready standard for social and paid channels
- Genuine understanding of what drives performance on Meta and in email - you think about the scroll, the open rate, the click
- Highly self-sufficient - you read the brief, manage your workload and deliver without needing to be chased
- Clear and proactive communicator within a small, fast-moving team

- Experience with FigmaTikTok content design experience - not essential today but relevant to where we are heading
- Ecomm and basic UI design capability beyond Shopify templates
- Comfortable experimenting with AI tools to support and accelerate creative production
