Digital Designer | Bristol

Job Description

Hours: Full-time (5 days p/week – 37.5 hours)

You're reading this ad, so you're ready to outthink. To take your skills, knowledge and experience beyond what you thought possible. And TMP268 is the place to do it.

TMP268 is a creatively strategic marketing agency, home to the Armed Forces Recruitment Service. Protecting the nation begins here.

And what does that mean for you? It means new challenges to rise to. Being encouraged and empowered to outthink at every opportunity. It means creating industry-first solutions, harnessing emerging tech, and realising AI's potential to create human connection. It means feeling valued for everything you bring. And work you can be proud to call your own, whatever your role.

The role

As Digital Designer, you'll create visually engaging digital-first content and experiences across web, social, display, email campaigns, and digital products. We'd like you to be part of building brand systems – including guidelines and architecture. In every piece of work, you'll put in passion, applied strategic thinking, creative flair and technical craft.

As well as designing digital-first campaign assets, you'll create display ads (MPUs, skyscrapers, leaderboards, animated banners etc). Supplying design assets to UX/UI developers and ad platforms to ensure design consistency.

You'll collaborate closely with creatives, strategists and the social media team to design social-first ads and content. Conceptualising, executing and optimising creative campaigns and content initiatives. Often, you'll be juggling multiple projects with tight deadlines to meet.

To help us bring our A-game, you'll stay up to date with digital-first trends, emerging technologies, and best practice.

We're building our business from the ground up into a major industry player. As a new addition, you'll lead by example, have an entrepreneurial spirit, and add your own energy to our fun, dynamic, supportive agency.

Who we're looking for

To be a match, you'll have three or more years' experience in digital-first design. We'd like to see a strong portfolio of relevant digital-first design work. This may be complemented by a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design, Digital Media, or similar. You're proficient in Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, XD) and Figma.

It's key that you have a strong understanding of responsive design, display, animated banners, social media ads and web. As well as a solid foundation in design, typography, and layout principles. You're familiar with UX principles and usability testing.

You'll be experienced with motion graphics and video editing tools (After Effects, Premiere Pro). Knowledge in preparation of HTML5/CSS is a plus.

You can confidently create, present and bring to life design solutions and creativity. An excellent active listener and a resilient problem solver, you take feedback on board and use it to improve your output.

You'll have worked in an agency or a fast-paced creative environment before. We'd like you to bring a collaborative mindset and an eye for the smallest details. You're also comfortable building relationships with wider agency colleagues. The ability to work independently and manage your own time is also important.

It would be a plus if you've worked on government/public sector campaigns. Knowledge of creating and maintaining a design system would be another plus. As we look to grow, it'll be helpful if you've got a broad range of experience to draw on.

What's in it for me?

You're set to gain so much from being part of our team, including:

• Time off to rest or conquer items on the bucket list with 27 days' holiday (+ 8 bank holidays) and a holiday purchase benefit where you can buy up to an additional 5 days.
• Great company paid benefits including our health cash plan, life assurance, company pension and access to an Employee Assistance Programme.
