    • Regularly reviewing employee performance through appraisals and 1-2-1's to ensure performance targets and expected behaviours are delivered.
    • Assist in the recruitment and probationary reviews of new employees in conjunction with Art Directors and the Head of Art
    • Undertake relevant on-the-job training where required.

    • Flexible approach with the ability to adapt with change.

    Advantageous:

    • Comfortable working and developing in a multi-platform, multi-project environment.
    • Experience with source control programmes such as Perforce & SVN.
    • Use of production tracking tools such as JIRA & Confluence.
    • Experience of performance evaluation and associated tools.
