    About Creative Futures

    Creative Futures is a different kind of creative team. We work in unison with our media teams combining creative, data, technology and paid media to make work that connects with culture - executing on every channel through advertising campaigns and brand partnerships.

    In the UK, we are a team of 45 strategists, creatives, designers, developers, video editors, producers and partnership specialists. We are part of the global Creative Futures network that has produced these campaigns in recent years:

    Ebay Preloved Island:

    Adidas Ozworld:

    Google High Life:

    Elsewhere, we launched with Google across EMEA on social and display, created award-winning social assets for the Tokyo Olympics, and produced the launch of The Financial Times new app, FT Edit.

    You'll present design solutions to our clients, building relationships and shaping their understanding of our design practice to both broaden and deepen our remit. Equally, you'll foster strong relationships internally, across the Creative Futures team and the wider agency.
