Challenge what's possible.


We have ambitious plans and vision to never-stop making our customers' lives better, by delivering the supermarket of today, tomorrow.


THIS ROLE
IN A NUTSHELL:

Then, keep on reading.

We are on the hunt for a multi-skilled social designer/art director who understands trends and wants to get ahead of the game with their social skills.

Being a foodie would also help.


You understand the platforms, have your templates ready to go and know how to make your audience stop scrolling through great ideas and eye-catching visuals.


Reporting to our Creative Studio Lead, alongside our Social Media Manager, you will join a team of creatives within our in-house studio that also includes art directors, recipe writers, animators, videographers, designers, photographers, developers and more.


THIS IS THE BIT WHERE
WE DESCRIBE YOU:
You are a social native who ensures every post is trend-ready while designing on-brand and creative visuals.

You understand how to art direct a shoot, know how to get the best out of people, and know the acute differences between a and a.

Overall, you thrive by bringing people together, collaborating and inspiring.

WHAT DOES
THE
DAY-TO-DAY FEEL LIKE?


Each day is different at Ocado as we are a young company with tons of ambition to change the world of online shopping.

We don't have physical stores, so we have to grab people's attention in the digital world.

This means that one day, you could be posting scary suppers for a Halloween campaign and the next day creating a social proposition to promote our electric vans.


Briefs are provided by the content marketing and paid social team, and it's your job to interpret, build upon and challenge these before the work begins in kickoffs.


You then work closely with photographers, videographers, art directors and the marketing team to create content for the social calendar.

Content that meets the strategy and gets our customers to love us so much more.


We're an in-house team, with a whole organisation relying on us to get things done, so we need you to be professional, self-motivated and dependable too.
