What We Do
We are a performance-focused DTC agency. We help e-commerce
brands scale through paid media (Meta, Google, Bing), email marketing
(Klaviyo), website optimisation, and creative strategy. Our clients sell
physical products.
The Role
We need a creative who can produce performance-driven design
assets across our client portfolio. This is hands-on production work — not
brand strategy or art direction. You will be briefed by George or the account
lead, given clear direction, and expected to deliver polished assets quickly.
The goal: free up George and the team from design
bottlenecks so we can move faster for clients.
Core Responsibilities
1. Ad Creative (Primary)
- Design
static ad creatives for Meta, Google Display, and retargeting campaigns
- Create
ad overlays and text treatments for UGC and product videos
- Build
variations and iterations of winning ads (new hooks, formats, angles)
- Design
product imagery and lifestyle mock-ups for ad use
- Use
AI tools (Midjourney, ChatGPT image gen, Canva AI) to produce and iterate
creative concepts quickly
2. Email Design
- Design
email templates and campaign emails in Canva
- Build
and style automated flow emails (welcome series, abandoned cart,
post-purchase)
- Create
email graphics, banners, hero images, and product feature blocks
- Work
from content briefs to produce ready-to-send emails
3. Website & Product Assets
- Create
website banners, collection imagery, and promotional graphics
- Build
pop-up designs for Klaviyo or Shopify
- Produce
social media assets when needed
What We Need From You
- Speed:
We move fast. Turnaround on most assets is 24–48 hours.
- Canva-native:
You live in Canva. You know templates, brand kits, and how to work
efficiently in it.
- Klaviyo
competent: You can build and style emails directly in Klaviyo, not just
design them.
- E-commerce
eye: You understand what makes someone click an ad or open an email. You
design for conversion, not awards.
- AI-savvy:
You use AI image generation and design tools to move faster and explore
ideas.
- Self-managing:
You pick up briefs from Monday.com, deliver on time, and flag problems
early.
- Multi-brand
comfortable: You can switch between a recycled homeware brand, a premium
bin company, and a DTC drinks brand in the same day without mixing up the
tone.
