Creative Designer

Salary range: $65,000 - $80,000

tmp helps B2B marketing leaders create coherence in a chaotic world. We’re looking for obsessively curious people to join us. 

You'll join 300 B2B experts across strategy, data, creative, media, client services, sales activation, and shared services. Different skills brought together in integrated teams, centred around our clients: the world’s most impactful tech companies. 

So, if you’re interested in what makes the world work, if you find solving complex problems fun, and you love making the answers as simple as possible, then we’d love to hear from you.

What we are looking for:

This is for designers who care how things work, not just how they look. 

 We’re looking for a creative designer hungry to make the role their own. Someone who is fascinated by ideas, can tell visual stories, and wants to be the person who articulates them clearly and enthusiastically across all mediums.  

You’ll join a team of highly dedicated art directors, designers, strategists and writers with different but complementary skills delivering ideas-based creativity for ambitious global brands. You’ll play your part in solving with ideas and take a major role in how they come to life, delivering them with clarity and craft. 

We’re looking for someone with energy and hunger — a creative designer who gets excited by great thinking, wants to be part of making it real, and takes pride in improving everything they touch. You’ll be a trusted pair of hands who brings enthusiasm, builds conceptual ideas, pushes projects forward, and strengthens the creative team around them. 

What you will do:

Own the work in front of you 

• Take briefs and moves them forward through thinking and doing, not waiting for everything to be solved.
• Delivers creative work that shows understanding of the idea, not just the instruction.
• Takes responsibility for quality, accuracy, and final output of everything they touch. 

 Turn ideas into real-world creative 

• Translates creative thinking into practical, effective design systems and assets.
• Applies campaign ideas across formats including digital, OOH, sales enablement and brand touchpoints.
• Adapts designs intelligently across formats rather than simply resizing. 

 Know how delivery gets done 

• Owns projects and workstreams with light senior oversight.
• Helps shepherd work through the studio, ensuring creative intent survives production.
• Can sometimes take ownership of rollout and detail-heavy execution. 

 Collaborate like a creative, not a supplier 

• Works directly with copywriters, strategists and creatives to continually strengthen the work.
• Contributes to discussions with opinions and constructively challenges those around them.
• Presents work clearly and explains the thinking behind the design choices they make. 

 Care about craft (even when the work isn’t glamorous) 

• Treats every task as a design problem, not just a task to be completed.
• Brings the same high level of care to everything they touch.
• Sweats the basics so others don’t have to. 

 Build in the work 

• Looks for opportunities to improve what’s in front of them.
• Brings references, ideas and inspiration into projects.
• Shows the obvious solution — and the better version when the opportunity is there.

Requirements

Who you are:

This role is not for someone who is happy with the status quo, just wants tasks, or only wants to work on the hero work moments. 

You'll love this role if you want to shape the work you touch, help build with ideas and earn your progression through impact. 

• Curious and proactive, you want to understand why something exists before you design it.
• Hungry to improve, you look for ways to make things better rather than just complete tasks.
• Communicative and open, comfortable asking questions and talking through your thinking.
• Proud of your craft, with high personal standards regardless of how visible the work is.
• Energised by responsibility and motivated by becoming someone the team can rely on.
• Comfortable with direct feedback and motivated by getting better, not being right.
• Someone who shows up, gets involved, and wants to be part of building something good. 

What you will need:  

• 2+ years agency experience and comfort working in a fast-moving creative environment. 
• A portfolio showing strong design fundamentals, campaign thinking and brand application. 
• Evidence you can develop visual routes and apply ideas across multiple formats. 
• Experience working from creative direction and translating ideas into finished work. 
• Strong knowledge of core design tools (Adobe Creative Suite, Figma or similar). 
• Experience collaborating with writers and strategists to develop creative work.

A note on applying:

Not sure you tick every box? Apply anyway. Research shows some people hold back unless they meet 100% of the requirements. We do not want that to be you. 

At tmp, we hire for potential, mindset, and character as much as experience. If you are excited about the role but your background is not a perfect match, we would still love to hear from you. You might be exactly what we are looking for, either for this role or another. 

Diversity equals increased creativity, which equals better results for all. We’re committed to equality of opportunity and applications from all individuals are encouraged. If you have a disability or additional need that requires accommodation, please don’t hesitate to let us know.
