Art Director - Social first
3 month FTC
Starting w/c 3rd Aug
(Apply solo, or as an existing Art Director + Copywriter duo)
We're looking for a Social first Art Director who puts the audience first, with bold thinking who want to help reshape how a major organisation talks to the public. We're open to individual Art Directors who are open to partnering up with a conceptual writer for this contract, or a duo who already work together and want to come in as a pair.
You’ll work on concepts that anchor entire campaigns, taking subjects that could easily feel flat or official and turning them into visuals people actually stop for on their feed.
What you'll do
- Working alongside a writer, you'll shape the big creative swings from scratch, building ideas that hold up whether they're running as paid ads, organic posts, or creator content.
- You'll sketch, board and mood-board your way to a clear visual direction before a single frame is shot, whether it’s built for a TikTok trend or a totally different look and feel for a polished YouTube piece.
- You'll build out visuals for pitch decks that help convince senior decision makers to back braver ideas.
- Act as the final check on visual quality across everything the team touches.
- Work hand-in-hand with designers, editors and camera teams to make sure what gets made matches what you pictured.
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.
What you'll bring
- A portfolio that shows your thinking, not just your finish; we want to see the problem and how you solved it visually, not just the polished result.
- You'll have worked in a creative pairing or as a lone creative developing concepts for joined-up or social campaigns, and you can flip comfortably between something scrappy and authentic and something highly produced and cinematic.
- You'll live and breathe what's happening online right now: trends, formats, memes, edits, likely from time spent in agency or newsroom style environments.
- Strong Adobe Creative Cloud skills are a must, plus confident deck-building in Slides or PowerPoint.
- Prior AD/CW pairing experience, motion or illustration skills, and a sharp eye for platform-specific formats would all be a bonus.
