The posting

We’re looking for an Art Director with big ideas, strong visual instincts and the craft to turn those ideas into brilliant work.

You’ll be a conceptual thinker and a hands-on creative, able to take a brief from the first spark of an idea through to execution across multiple channels. Your portfolio should demonstrate strong visual thinking, beautifully crafted work and you’ll have the ability to articulate the rationale behind it.

We’re an integrated creative team, so variety comes with the territory. One day you might be developing a brand platform, the next creating a social-first idea, shaping a customer campaign or finding a compelling way to bring a complex B2B proposition to life. We’ve also just won an exciting new client spanning B2B and B2C, creating a significant new creative opportunity for the team and for the person joining us.

You’ll work alongside Art Directors, designers, copywriters and Creative Directors, collaborating closely while confidently owning your own briefs. We want someone who can find the idea, push it further and sell it in, with a clear point of view on why it’s right for the audience, brand and brief.

And ideas are only as good as their execution. You’ll be just as comfortable concepting with a copywriter as crafting a layout, building a compelling deck, defining the visual expression of an idea or getting hands-on to make the work brilliant.

Our creative teams help brands find and express what matters most to their customers. We work across brand, campaign, content and customer communications, combining creativity, craft, data and technology to make work that connects.

That means different audiences, different problems and genuinely varied creative challenges. With new client wins and an expanding creative remit, it’s an exciting time to join us and help shape what comes next.

Requirements

  • Ideas are your starting point. You can take a brief, find a distinctive way into it and develop it into a compelling creative response.
  • You have strong art direction and design craft. Your portfolio demonstrates conceptual thinking, not just beautiful execution.
  • You think across channels. You see social, CRM, digital, content, design and campaign as different expressions of an idea, rather than separate creative worlds.
  • You can flex between consumer and business audiences, finding creatively interesting ways to engage both.
  • You can own the work. You’re comfortable taking responsibility for a brief while knowing when collaboration will make the idea stronger.
  • You can articulate and sell your thinking, from an informal creative conversation to a polished client presentation.
  • You value creative partnership. You actively seek out collaboration with copywriters from the beginning, recognising that the strongest ideas come from visual and verbal thinking working together.
  • You push rather than settle. You’re comfortable giving and receiving feedback and want to make the work better, not simply get it finished.
  • You know how to use Gen AI creatively and intelligently. You understand where it can accelerate ideation, development and execution, but equally where human imagination, judgement and craft need to lead.
  • You’re highly proficient in Adobe Creative Cloud, particularly InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator.

Benefits

Perks at ITG — alongside a competitive salary, here's what you can look forward to:

  • Time off that works for you — 25 days' holiday + bank holidays, a paid Wellbeing Day, flexible bank holidays to honour cultural or religious observances, and the option to buy or carry over up to 5 extra days.
  • Flexibility & lifestyle — Smart Working with up to 40% from home, and after 12 months, the option to work from abroad for up to 90 days a year.
  • Family & life milestones — Enhanced family friendly leave, 3 extra days for your wedding/honeymoon, and an Employee Assistance Programme whenever you need support.
  • Financial perks — Pension scheme, Corporate Medical Cash Plan, electric car salary sacrifice scheme, and tax-efficient payroll giving to your favourite charities.
  • Growth & recognition — Funding for professional qualifications, monthly Employee of the Month awards (£250 bonus), and referral bonuses of up to £1,500.
  • Community & wellbeing — Regular Wellbeing Workshops, 30+ Wellbeing Champions, a paid Volunteer Day, and an online perks platform with discounts on top brands, days out, and gym memberships.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
