The Role

DigitalKOG is looking for a Graduate or Junior Graphic Designer to join our creative marketing team in Preston. We welcome applications from ambitious designers with strong creative potential and a genuine enthusiasm for design. We are looking for someone with a natural creative flair who enjoys developing ideas and creating engaging design work for our home improvement clients.

At DigitalKOG, we keep the end user at the centre of every piece of creative. Our focus is on producing work that helps attract customers and supports real business growth. We believe that creativity without results has limited value, so we measure success by the impact our work has on performance as well as how it looks.

Our creative approach is always evolving. We continually refine our design output to stay responsive to changing trends, audience behaviour and the wider marketing landscape. Every piece of work is rooted in a clear understanding of each client and their brand strategy, so we are looking for someone who is ready to embrace that mindset and develop a strong sense of creative purpose.

In this role, you will benefit from direct mentorship from our Creative Director and Senior Creative Designer. You will work across a wide range of projects, helping to turn campaign concepts into effective creative content across multiple marketing channels. This will include concept development, front-end web design, email marketing, social content creation, and creative copywriting. You will also have the opportunity to work closely with the wider creative team while collaborating with our experienced marketing specialists.
