Creative Lead

Shiels Group is looking for a hands-on Creative Lead to join our Marketing team and lead the digital and print execution of our campaigns.

Our creative spans website, digital and paid social content through to retail campaigns, catalogues and in-store POS across 60+ stores and growing ecommerce channels.

We're looking for an experienced designer with a digital-first mindset, sharp creative instincts and the ability to take a campaign from concept to execution. You'll lead and develop our Graphic Designer while staying hands-on.

The Role

Reporting to the Head of Brand Marketing, you'll take a lead role in the creative output across Shiels Group's portfolio of brands.

You'll:

·         Lead creative concepts and creative direction across campaigns, translating commercial objectives into strong, customer-led creative.

·         Drive our digital creative, particularly across paid social, ecommerce, website, motion/video content and emerging digital formats.

·         Manage a Graphic Designer, providing clear direction and support to deliver a high volume of campaign assets.

·         Work closely with Content, Digital and Buying teams to develop creative specifically for each channel and audience.

·         Oversee visual consistency across digital, retail, print and customer touchpoints.

·         Design and oversee retail creative including catalogues, in-store POS and signage, working across InDesign as needed.

·         Explore AI, automation and emerging tools to help us work smarter and faster.

·         Work with external suppliers and partners to deliver major campaign and print activity.

About You

You'll bring:

·         4+ years' experience in graphic design, with a strong portfolio in digital creative.

·         Confidence across Adobe Creative Suite with working knowledge of InDesign.

·         Strong conceptual thinking and the ability to take a campaign from initial idea through to execution.

·         Experience working across high-volume creative, multiple formats and competing deadlines.

·         Curiosity with AI, automation, motion and emerging creative tools.

Experience mentoring or leading other designers is a plus, but not essential - a great next step for a designer moving into a leadership role.

Experience in retail, ecommerce or fast-moving consumer brands, along with motion/video experience, would also be highly regarded.
