About the Role
3 month FTC
We're looking for an experienced Middleweight Art director to join our team, working for a premium global jewellery brand. You'll lead the adaptation and execution of global campaigns across digital-first channels, including email, web and banners.
Working as an extension of our client's in-house creative team, you'll collaborate closely with stakeholders, copy leads, designers and channel teams to bring global campaigns to life across the customer journey.
This is a unique opportunity for a design-led creative with a deep understanding of how to translate established brand campaigns into compelling, customer-centric experiences across owned digital touchpoints. You’ll play a pivotal role in ensuring every interaction feels seamless, premium and unmistakably on-brand.
With a focus on email and owned digital channels, you'll work closely with the Creative Director, client stakeholders and channel leads to bring campaign ideas to life across the customer journey. Working from established campaign assets, brand guidelines, channel requirements and sometimes highly prescriptive briefs, you'll help create a consistent narrative across touchpoints, using your design eye and storytelling skills to elevate every execution while staying true to the brand.
We're looking for someone who combines exceptional creative craft with channel-first thinking, strategic awareness and meticulous attention to detail.
You'll have a passion for luxury aesthetics, fashion and culture, a strong point of view on design, and the ability to transform campaign ideas into customer experiences that feel both emotionally engaging and commercially effective.
In addition to outstanding design skills, you'll have an appreciation for motion and storytelling, with experience creating or directing high-quality GIFs, animations and short-form video content that help bring campaign storytelling to life across digital channels.

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

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.
This role is ideal for someone who wants to push the creative standard of email and owned digital channels, champion design excellence and help define what best-in-class customer experience looks like for one of the world's leading premium jewellery brands.
Creative Opportunities
This role goes far beyond traditional customer communications. You'll help tell the stories behind major collaborations, cultural moments and global product launches that bring together the worlds of jewellery, fashion, beauty and entertainment.
One day you could be helping launch a collection inspired by a beloved entertainment franchise; the next, crafting messaging for a collaboration co-created with a renowned fashion stylist, influential creative or cultural institution. It's a chance to work on campaigns that are culturally relevant, globally visible and genuinely exciting to be part of.
