We are looking for a talented Art Director who is as comfortable directing a shoot as they are on Photoshop. You will be able to clearly articulate a vision from mock to executed print design with endless ideas and innovative ways to approach food and interiors content. Your attention to detail will be second to none and your creative vision will be rich and diverse. Reporting into the Senior Creative Lead you will be a team player, working alongside other art directors and designers to bring this content to life every month. Your design aesthetic, photography experience, interiors and trends knowledge will set you apart.You are very comfortable working on one project for weeks at a time but you don't mind jumping in to help on another urgent shoot or project if required. You're positive and enthusiastic, and never precious about feedback. Bringing a vision to life is a challenge – once you've found your location, or designed a set build you can layer it with detail and style from the ground up, reflecting current trends and styles. You are comfortable working with large production budgets and most importantly you have a positive attitude, no matter what the day brings. Your work will come to life in multi-page formats and be published in our homes and food portfolio across print, digital and social.Not quite at this level with art direction but would like to be?
