Milton Keynes, United Kingdom MK21 Full time

**We are growing**

**About the Job & About Us**:
MK21 is a digital-first creative agency that partners with household brands such as Gü puds, Dominos, BEAR, Urban Fruit and Nākd bars - to consider the bigger picture.

We’re looking for a number of multi-disciplined Designers and Creatives, keen to get stuck into a variety of projects.

We wonder where decisions take us, and why people act in different ways.

Having your head down all the time helps nobody, so we challenge brands and ourselves to look up, and think forward.

We're all born with curiosity. We just choose to follow it.

We’re looking for more people to do the same.We’re made up of a growing team with diverse skill sets that comes together to make something a little special. Our major focus is helping brands make the most of themselves, but that manifests itself in often very different ways. From social marketing and activations, content creation and production, UI & UX design, website building and app launching all the way to straight-up branding, to name just a few. Variety is indeed the spice of MK21.

We think that as we spend so much of our lives at work, it should be fun - if it's not, then we're doing it wrong. So yes, we have a beer tap in the office (gin and soft drinks are also available).

**About the role**:
We’re looking for super-hungry, talented Creative/Designers with a few years of experience who wants to create exceptional work across a range of disciplines.

Working as part of a creative team, you’ll have a hand in ideating and executing fresh creative that pushes the boundaries of the brief. You’ll be working alongside the Head of Creative and a team of designers, strategists and marketers across a range of clients and mediums. If you’re looking to sit there day after day completing the same briefs or spending weeks just in IND - sorry, we haven’t got the role for you.

You’ll know your way around the Adobe creative suite, and have a keen interest or experience in UI, UX and web design in general. You’ll be expected to receive briefs from account managers and clients, interpret what they need, present ideas back to them and, of course, execute.

We’re excited about these position. We’re a small agency, but growing - and one that’s having an increasingly significant impact on our clients' lives.

**Skills**:
Demonstrable design skills with a solid portfolio across a range of disciplines.

Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite. With knowledge of XD, Figma or Sketch.

Keen interest or experience in UX, UI or website design.

Experience in video editing or motion graphics.

Able to receive a brief, analyse and solve independently.

A minimum of 1 year of in-agency (or comparable) experience.

Good organisational skills, balancing the requirements of a range of projects and the practical organisation itself.

Good oral, and written communication and presentation skills.

Understanding of the importance of art direction and copywriting. Knowing how to leverage it and critique it to get the desired outcome.

Flexible and enjoy working in a fast-paced and changing environment.

**Responsibilities**:
Leading the creative output for small to medium projects.

Responsible for supporting and directing to more junior team members working alongside you on your projects.

Maintaining high standards and ensuring only the best work is released to the agency or client.

Support and encourage more junior colleagues.

Active involvement in developing concepts and ideas, articulating these effectively to colleagues and clients.

Ensuring that your work is on time and on budget and at the high standards expected of MK21.

Use strategic insights and data (where appropriate) to inform your processes and practice, crafting well-structured rationale to support recommendations.

Communicate with colleagues and clients in a clear, structured and concise manner through appropriate channels and technology.

Contributing to our culture, the evolution of the team and thus the wider transformation of MK21.

Keep up to date with industry trends and new technologies.

**Other notes**:
32 days holiday inclusive of bank holidays.

Hybrid working - 8 days a month in the office.

Your own Macbook to work on.

Private healthcare by AXA Health on completion of probation.

Annual Remote Work Policy - Work completely remotely for up to 3 weeks, as long as the timezone is within 2+/- hours of GMT.
