CREATIVE
Tasks / Accountabilities
• Translate creative concepts into exceptional design and motion across campaign ecosystems, ensuring every asset feels cohesive, premium and on brand.
• Create and refine storyboards, transitions, and animation tests to define an execution approach early and de-risk production hold ups or limitations.
• Maintain strong fundamentals across all work: typography, layout, hierarchy, pacing, timing, easing, legibility, and brand consistency.
• Proactively identify opportunities to elevate craft and simplify complexity – making the work better and more efficient.
• Support creative teams with practical execution thinking (formats, feasibility, channel requirements, production pathways).
Key Performance Indicators
• Craft and polish: Work consistently meets a “ready for market” standard with minimal finishing fixes.
• Ideation: Strengthen the core idea with design and motion to help it land clearly.
• Consistency: Campaigns feel unified across ratios, formats, placements and rounds.
• Senior-level judgement: Makes smart trade-offs, protects quality, and proposes solutions under constraints and practical limitations.
CLIENT
Tasks / Accountabilities
• Execute and adapt creative across all channels, Print, Digital OOH (static + motion), Social (platform variants; short-form motion; stories/reels formats), and Web/Display (including HTML banner animation output).
• Own the day-to-day execution of feedback from internal stakeholders and clients — interpreting notes accurately, implementing efficiently, and maintaining quality through iterations.
• Ensure deliverables meet all channel specifications: dimensions, safe areas, readability, file weight, codecs, durations, frame rates, and platform requirements.
• Contribute to internal or client-facing reviews with clear articulation of execution choices (when required), helping stakeholders understand what’s being made and why.
Key Performance Indicators
• Accuracy and responsiveness: Feedback is actioned correctly with fewer back-and-forth rounds.
• Channel compliance: Deliverables pass technical checks and require minimal production rework.
• Confidence and trust: Stakeholders rely on you to deliver under pressure without quality dropping.
CULTURE
Tasks / Accountabilities
• Act as a senior reference point for design and motion – sharing approaches, references, templates, shortcuts, and best practice.
• Provide informal mentoring to junior team members: constructive critique, file hygiene guidance, and practical coaching to lift output.
• Be a collaborative partner to Creative, Studio and Production – solutions-focused, calm, and generous with knowledge.
Key Performance Indicators
• Team uplift: Your input improves others’ work and reduces avoidable production issues.
• Collaboration quality: You strengthen cross-team workflows and relationships through clarity and reliability.
• Positive influence: You contribute to a culture of high standards, pace and professionalism.
FINANCIAL
Tasks / Accountabilities
• Deliver the highest creative standard possible within agreed timelines and budgets.
• Provide accurate time estimates and flag risks early (complexity, approvals, production constraints).
• Complete timesheets accurately and on time.
Key Performance Indicators
• Delivery efficiency: Time and scope are managed realistically; work lands on schedule.
• Commercial judgement: You protect craft while making pragmatic execution choices.
• Low friction: Admin is accurate, timely, and dependable.
OPERATIONAL
Tasks / Accountabilities
• Run multiple jobs concurrently, prioritising effectively, communicating progress clearly, and escalating blockers early.
• Maintain excellent file hygiene: clean layers, consistent naming/versioning, tidy comps/timelines, and clear handover notes.
• Partner with Studio/Production team members for smooth delivery: packaged files, organised exports, and specification-ready outputs.
• Own QA before delivery: spelling, alignment, timing, legibility, audio levels (where relevant), file weight, and spec compliance.
Key Performance Indicators
• Production readiness: Clean handovers; minimal avoidable amends; fewer last-minute issues.
• Operational reliability: Strong organisation and version control; others can pick up your files easily.
• Consistent output under pressure: Quality and accuracy remain high at pace.
