My client’s an integrated agency who deliver full 360 solutions for a varied client-base that includes fmcg, drinks and automotive. They’re a good agency and their CD is one of the best in their space.
They’ve identified a design skills gap that they’re hoping can filled through the hiring of someone who is a bit of a design hybrid. They are looking to meet someone who comes via a classic graphic design grounding, with all the skills and craft that this bring (great sense of typography for instance, a well as an intrinsic understanding of layout, composition, retouching and artwork, etc.), but who is also something of a digital evangelist and deliverer (who can work in Flash for instance, who relishes applying their craft across digital media too).
The candidate coming on board will help shape the agency’s design offer and need to be hands on, working hand in hand with both the ECD and the Digital CD. It’s very definitely an evolving agency offering, with a good, current, creative product.
Realistically the role will require someone coming on board to have at least 4 years agency plus and a genuine desire to muck in. A ‘can-do’, solutions orientated approach is an absolute prerequisite, as is a strong design portfolio that demonstrates both craft and digital implementation.
If this sounds interesting, please feel free to call me on 07710 419 702 or email me at tim@timothycreative.com for more information, enclosing a link to your portfolio and current CV. Thanks very much.

About Timothy Creative Talent Consultancy's blog
Hello and welcome to my blog(s).
In my role as a talent strategist and career coach (currently with The Talent Business in London), I work with creative people on an individual and personal basis, helping them to understand their unique skills and, as a result, find them their perfect job.
My clients are integrated/360 & digital agencies and they take me to the heart of their businesses, share their vision and goals, and then work with me to evolve how they manage their recruitment, search, talent management or departmental succession planning.
My service isn't a volume-driven or 'one size fits all' approach. My goal is to deliver a service that is individual, tailored and reflects the needs of those I represent and work for. And I work on the premise that everyone will be a candidate at some point in their lives, so I treat people the way I want to be treated.
I work on both retained and contingency assignments.
In my past life I have worked both for agencies and clientside in senior client service & marketing positions. I have gained extensive integrated marcomms and campaign experience - particularly within the financial services, not-for-profit, B2B, travel and FMCG sectors.
In addition to my day job, I also work with advertising degree students, coaching them on portfolio preparation, interview training and best practice networking. And I am currently studying for my coaching diploma, so that I am able to offer an even deeper & accredited service.
Specialities: retained search, contingency recruitment, succession planning, talent attraction & talent acquisition strategies, career coaching; delivering career opportunities for creatives across the integrated/360 & digital agency spectrum.
If you are interested in finding out a little more about what I do and whether I can help, please get in touch. I'll be very happy to hear from you.
