It's an opportunity to immerse yourself in a world where every design decision matters, and each step contributes to the rich heritage of Clarks' story.

The role

Your responsibilities encompass leading the creative development of campaigns, collaborating with the Brand Marketing Manager to craft distinctive visual identities and engaging creative in alignment with Clarks' brand vision and objectives.

You'll be passionate about the world in which Clarks Originals lives - connected to a wide range of cultural universes within music, fashion, and art.

About Clarks
This is a hybrid role at our HQ in Street, Somerset less than one hour from Bristol and Bath.

Clarks, based in Somerset, England, has been at the forefront of innovative shoemaking since its foundation in 1825, when brothers James and Cyrus Clark made a slipper from sheepskin off-cuts.

Sparking revolutions and defining generations, Clarks' archive of over 22,000 pairs includes the inimitable Desert Boot and Wallabee - and a ground-breaking combination of invention and craftsmanship remains at the heart of what the brand does now.

Cutting-edge collaborations with cultural icons and KOLs, taking strides in social change, reimagining legendary silhouettes, and making shoes that move with the world ahead - Clarks is never standing still.
