B2C creative thinking. Global B2B brands. An opportunity to make your mark.
Jefferson Locke is looking for an exceptional Head of Design / Design Director to join a leading global integrated B2B creative agency in LONDON and we're looking beyond the traditional B2B world.
We want someone who has developed their creative instincts within a top B2C creative, advertising or integrated agency, someone used to creating bold, culturally relevant, beautifully crafted work for consumer audiences, who is excited by the opportunity to bring that thinking into the B2B space.
THE OPPORTUNITY
To push the creative boundaries of B2B.
You'll take a leading role in shaping the agency's design output, bringing fresh creative ambition and a strong consumer mindset to major international B2B brands and global campaigns.
This is a role for someone who wants genuine influence - not simply maintaining an established design language, but challenging it, evolving it and raising the creative bar.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
