We are looking for a talented Associate Design Director to join our specialist fashion & luxury team within Media.Monks on a 12 month FTC.

Based in London, we have spent the last two years building a broad portfolio of work for high profile clients such as Gucci, Burberry and Moncler. We were established to lead new creativity through the fluidity of cultural, commercial and technological change. And as such, we work across a diverse range of opportunities, from integrated campaigns to e-commerce, virtual fashion shows to blockchain-powered gallery platforms (and beyond).

You will be a conceptual thinker, with highly refined design & art direction skills. You will cultivate impeccable taste levels, broad points of reference that span the worlds of art and commerce, and a deep and demonstrable passion for culture, fashion and luxury.
You will have experience of creating work for high profile brands in the fashion & luxury category, across both digital and traditional media and formats.

And you will be an articulate and collaborative team player, capable of leading the creation of work that delivers against the exacting standards of the sectors we serve.

This role has five key areas of responsibility:

• Design Direction
  You will work independently of, and alongside, Design Directors to establish a set of design principles and a visual language that are true and specific to the brands that we work with. You will have a strong understanding of the demands and constraints of different media and platforms, and strive to create elegant and cohesive experiences across them all - but you remain eager to exploit the unique opportunities presented by each of them.

• Concept Development
  You will work independently of, and alongside, Creative Directors to develop creative ideas for campaigns, activations and services for our clients. You will have a deep understanding of the relevant brand’s DNA, and be capable of clearly, concisely and passionately articulating and/or visualising your vision for them. And you will enjoy working with diverse strategic, creative and technical talents to raise the bar for what’s possible.

• Direction, Consultancy & Mentorship
  You will be comfortable overseeing multiple projects at once, engaging with a number of different teams, and in a variety of different ways. There will be opportunities where you are very much in the lead, and others where you will be required to coax the best possible work out of xothers. And you will enjoy mentoring emerging talent both within the core FLUX team and the wider Media.Monks business.

• Client Presentations
  You will create compelling client presentations across both pitches and projects, ensuring that everything is being rendered and produced to the highest possible standards. You will be capable of presenting directly to clients, often at a very high level, to represent the thinking behind the work that we do. And you are able to work respectfully and collaboratively with our clients to define and align on the finished product.

• Improvisation & Innovation
  You will be excited by the possibilities of technical innovations, and enjoy working with others to explore new opportunities at the bleeding edge of technology, culture and commerce. You are comfortable with uncertainty, and enthused by experimentation. But you place a premium on inclusivity and accessibility, going to great lengths to ensure that the very new always feels intuitive and familiar.
