  • Paid via LTD company (outside IR35) or Umbrella company - weekly pay, perfect for security and stability!

  • Tools our client uses: Teams, Box, Ftrack - you can learn this on the job

Ideal For

This role is perfectly suited to graphic artists who want a truly creative booking that marries craft with ideas in a team who respect and understand the creative process rather than churn - whether you’re:

  • a seasoned senior who values creative freedom, stability and LTD flexibility,

  • an experienced perm designer ready to transition into freelance with a safety net,

  • or a passionate artist looking to build a stand-out portfolio with and lean digital skills on high-profile campaigns.

If you thrive on ideas, exploring interesting visuals, colour and storytelling through design, you’ll fit right in.
