tmp helps B2B marketing leaders create coherence in a chaotic world.
We're looking for obsessively curious people to join us.
You'll join 300 B2B experts across strategy, data, creative, media, client services, Sales activation, and shared services. Different skills brought together in integrated teams, centred around our clients: the world's most impactful tech companies.
So, if you're interested in what makes the world work, if you find solving complex problems fun, and you love making the answers as simple as possible, then we'd love to hear from you.
What we are looking for
We have serious ambitions for our creative work. We're looking for an Art Director who shares them.
Someone who wants to make work people wish they'd made.
We want a thinker with a designer's eye. Someone with taste, curiosity, and an unreasonable level of ambition for the work.
Someone who understands emotion and knows how to use creativity to make people feel something.
Working as one half of a conceptual creative team, you'll have real creative ownership of one of our biggest global clients — setting the visual direction, steering the work, and constantly looking for opportunities to make it better.
And, when exciting creative opportunities land elsewhere around the Agency, we want you there too.
You won't be buried in production, but you'll know your craft well enough to direct it — and be dangerous on the tools when you need to be.
Your portfolio matters more to us than a checklist of experience.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Show us ideas.
Show us beautiful things.
Better still, show us both.
What you will do
- Turn strategy into an idea, not just a visual response
- Get in early on briefs and help find the thought everything else hangs from
- Set and steer the visual direction of a major global account
- Protect the idea as it travels — guide the work through the studio
- Build distinctive visual worlds around campaigns, brands, and ideas
- Present creative thinking to clients and bring them with you
- Direct designers and makers — and lead through the tools when showing is better than telling

- You care about craft, but never at the expense of the idea
- You're ambitious for the work, whoever's name is on it
What you will need
- 4+ years' experience in a design-led creative role.
- Agency experience, B2B or B2C.
- A portfolio that shows ideas as well as execution
- Strong design craft and art direction
