• Use AI visual-generation tools to produce polished, presentation-ready imagery.

• Experience at leading creative agencies such as Ogilvy, TBWA, Joe Public, M&C Saatchi or equivalent.
  

• A portfolio demonstrating original campaign thinking and excellent visual craft.
  

• Practical proficiency in Midjourney, Adobe Firefly or similar AI tools.
  

• An understanding of UK and international brands, culture and audiences.
  

• 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.

Apply individually—no creative partner is required.
