- Strong command of tone of voice, storytelling and concise, persuasive language.
- Practical experience using AI tools within your creative process.
- An understanding of UK and international brands, culture and humour.
- A proactive, collaborative attitude and enthusiasm for making the work yourself.
Major advertising awards are advantageous.
Exceptional creatives in full-time employment may also be considered if they can meet the agreed commitments.
