HMX is growing.
At HMX, we're not just about creating content, we're about crafting immersive experiences that captivate and inspire. We blend cutting-edge technology with artistic excellence to deliver standout digital productions across web, mobile, broadcast, and events.
We create bold, brilliant content for brands like Sony, McLaren, Lenovo, Panasonic and Sharp. Think films, animations, photography, interactive experiences and everything in between. And now, we’re on the lookout for a Midweight Art Director to join our creative team in London.
As a middleweight (or experienced junior), you’ve probably done the rounds with some solid experience under your belt, and now you’re ready to take the reins a bit more. If you get fired up about design, animation, film, tech, and coming up with killer ideas, we'd love to hear from you.
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.
