Designer

London’s calling…out for ideas.

Ideas are our lifeblood and London is our reach. So we’re after an experienced, conceptual designer who has a suitcase full of them and a portfolio to match!

You’ll be joining an award-winning inhouse creative team working on campaigns that make a real difference to people’s lives. We’re a close-knit, good-humoured bunch with expertise in design, copywriting and photography.

You’ll be working on high-profile integrated marketing campaigns for the Mayor of London and London Assembly brands that work across channels - primarily digital, social, video, radio, print and OOH. And you’ll be comfortable presenting your ideas at all levels.

London’s calling. Could you be the answer?
