Creative Artworker

Want to be Creative Artworker at a proper advertising agency?

Then do it where your craft is really respected. Sharpening. Moving in tighter. Ramping up the colour. When it comes to edging creative painstakingly closer to its award-winning potential, we know the devil is in the detail, and so the right Artworker is a gift from above.

So, if you want to join a fun and hard-working creative team that recognises the value in what you do, Blackbridge is your agency. You’ll collaborate on fully integrated marketing campaigns, helping us develop increasingly imaginative ways to ensure each piece of design is technically on point and emotionally stirring.

Do the work you’ve always wanted to

Be revered for your amazingly pedantic retouching and technical artworking expertise across all our big campaigns. Every day is an opportunity to produce work that takes pride of place in your portfolio. And show off your creative flair from building irresistible pitch presentations for potential new clients, to designing the stunning social content upholding our industry reputation.

Learning from our Head of Production, you’ll also get to know the ins and outs of production design for multi-media campaigns across print, digital, animation and video.

Why Blackbridge?

With countless industry awards to our name, we really are pushing the boundaries of employer branding – a constantly growing and currently booming area of marketing. What we do is every bit as creative and innovative as consumer advertising, but with an added sense of self-worth. Because we aren’t selling sodas; we’re helping people find and build their futures with world-renowned brands like Amazon, Rolls Royce and the NHS.

Even better, this is what it feels like to be a holistic creative. Helping our team shape brands and contributing to campaigns every step of the way. You can’t be content working on one, and only one, client. So you’ll love working here. Nice people usually do. We’re close-knit and know how to enjoy ourselves in and around the creative hub that is Spitalfields, London. And whilst all the perks here are pretty sweet, the most important thing to know is that we’re an employee-owned agency – so you’ll earn a share of our profits after 12-month’s service.
