***DOWNLOAD OUR RECRUITMENT PACK AT ELECTRIFY.ME.UK/CAREERS***
We’re recruiting for a senior multimedia designer (Senior Creative Partner) to join our team and play a vital role in our creative, storytelling-led approach.
Whether you’re building brilliant visual multiplatform campaigns, designing reports, creating motion graphics or explainer animations, you'll develop inspiring content that helps us inspire change.
You must have at least four years’ (or equivalent) demonstrable experience to be considered for this role.
This is a senior role, so you will be involved in every part of the creative process, including research, engagement, concept development, and creative production.
Working effectively is an enabler to creativity too, so you’ll help us maintain our Business Process Document, which is a key part of our drive to be consistent and efficient.
You will also be hungry - very hungry - to learn more, acquire new skills and knowledge because we’re a dynamic team that never stops moving forward.
Speaking of our team, when it comes to creativity everyone is an equal. Nobody has a monopoly on ideas or wisdom.
We’ll need you to help us make sure we live our values, and create the right environment.
Your growth and development matters, too. You’ll take part in our Performance Framework, which is our way of assessing what makes a brilliant outcome for our clients, the business - and you
You’ll work with our Creative Director to evaluate your performance, set realistic development objectives. In return, we’ll reward commitment and excellence for the part you play.
Depending on your progress you’ll be able to earn an additional bonus - one of two we offer annually.
One important thing to know is that we work full time from our office base in Livingston. We passionately believe in and see the power of working together collaboratively in a creative environment. For this role we require you to have a full driving licence and car.
We’re confident that if you join our team then you’re in for an amazing adventure in a place where you can be yourself, flourish and be fearless knowing that we’ve got your back. Ready to find out more? Let’s go

ATTRIBUTES
Intuitively creative and diverse in approach and style
You’ll have a thirst for ideas, and a commitment to pushing boundaries - you’ll ‘get it’ (if you know, you know)
Bold in your ideas
We want people who are brave, and who will have the confidence to speak up. When it comes to creativity, everyone is equal at Electrify
Attention to detail
You’ll be forensic in your approach from understanding the brief through to creative execution. Everything leaving us has to be brilliant
Phenomenally well organised
We believe that being organised, great at time management, and good at prioritising is a key enabler to creativity. Being organised is vital to us
A problem solver
We’re storytellers, regardless of our role and so working out effective ways to tell a story, often requires moving jigsaw pieces around to find the best way
Comprehension / decoding
You’ll be able to take briefs, read them, understand what the message is, and find great ways to respond to them. Great English skills are vital

Kind - without kindness you have nothing. Everything we do should be done with kindness in mind and so we’re sure that you’ll see that when you work with us
*******
OUR VIEW ON QUALIFICATIONS
You may have relevant qualifications in multimedia or content creation, but that’s not the most important thing for us - and it is not how we decide who to meet or offer any role to.

track record in delivering for the role you are applying to.
When we meet candidates we ask them to tell us about their experience, and try to relate it to what
we’re looking for. The more practical you can be, the better.
