About TEAM LEWIS
An integrated communications agency that has gone from start-up to multi-national in a little over two decades. The company now ranks in the top 40 agencies worldwide and has 27 offices.

Purpose of the role
The Mid-weight Designer / Artworker will support a busy BAU and retail workstream, producing and adapting high volumes of static and motion assets. This is a hands-on, technical role focused on accurate artwork, versioning and efficient delivery to brief and specification.
The role will suit someone who enjoys working with design tools and production processes, can manage detail and deadlines, and communicates clearly when priorities shift. Creative thinking, concepting and ideation is certainly a part of the role, but the main focus is on reliable, high-quality execution.
Responsibilities
Design and artwork production
Produce and adapt static artwork for BAU and retail requirements.
Create accurate versions of existing assets across formats, sizes and placements.
Work within supplied brand guidelines, templates and production specifications.
Check artwork carefully for accuracy, consistency, layout and technical requirements before delivery.
Keep working files and final assets organised, clearly labelled and ready for handover.
Workflow and delivery
Manage a varied, high-volume workload and respond to requests that arise throughout the month.
Deliver work quickly and accurately while balancing changing priorities and deadlines.
Follow established processes and contribute to efficient, consistent production workflows.
Raise questions, flag risks or communicate potential delays as early as possible.
Handle feedback and amends constructively, keeping stakeholders informed about progress.
About you
You have around 3–5 years’ experience in a designer, artworker or production-focused role and can work autonomously.
You have strong technical skills in Adobe Photoshop and InDesign.
Ability to use After Effects to create or adapt simple motion assets would be beneficial but not a must.
You enjoy detail-focused, process-driven work and take pride in producing accurate, consistent artwork.
You are comfortable working to short deadlines and handling repetitive, high-volume workflows.
You are organised, responsive and confident communicating with colleagues about progress, priorities and potential issues.
You have a genuine interest in image editing and design tools, including outside of work.
A portfolio or showreel demonstrating relevant static and motion work is required.
This is an individual-contributor role with no line management responsibilities.
This job description is not intended to be an exhaustive list of responsibilities. Other responsibilities may be added from time to time.
