Creative Operations & Collaboration
* Work swiftly and efficiently across multiple briefs, shifting seamlessly from retail to digital as needed.
* Present work and concepts confidently to the Founder and Senior Executive Team, articulating creative rationale clearly.
* Track and manage all active briefs, providing clear status updates to the Creative Director and channel stakeholders.
* Collaborate closely with Marketing, Brand, Retail, and eCommerce teams to ensure assets meet strategic and commercial goals.
* Maintain organised file structures, version control, and asset libraries for all retail and digital artwork.
AI & Innovation
* Champion the integration of AI tools (e.g., image and video generation, layout automation) into the creative workflow.
* Stay informed about emerging creative technologies, experimenting with ways to enhance efficiency and output quality.
* Support internal upskilling by sharing AI learnings and best practices with the wider creative team.
Skills & Experience:
