Ignite are delighted to be working with one of the fastest growing D2C brands in the UK (Sunday Times top 100 list & FEBE Growth listed). The business has grown substantially over the last few years with further growth projected for next year and beyond – both from a revenue and team size perspective. The business is almost entirely self-funded so they’re in a very strong financial position.

They’re now looking to hire a Junior Creative Strategist to join their growing in-house creative team. The brand creates over 500 ads each month across Meta, Tik Tok and YouTube. Current spend is north of £1m per month, primarily on Meta, so we’re talking about a D2C powerhouse here – this is not an opportunity to be missed.

What skills do you need to have to be considered?

• A minimum of 2 years performance creative experience.
• Experience working for or with a D2C E-commerce business (either in-house or agency is fine)
• Experience of Meta, TikTok and YouTube ads is essential.
• Excellent ability to produce high-quality shareable content.
• A fantastic ability to think outside the box and have crazy/wild ideas from a direct response/performance marketing perspective.
• An amazing attitude, you need to be super driven, fun, sociable and ambitious

In return for everything you can bring, the business can offer you:

• Bonus scheme up to 20% of salary
• Hybrid working policy (3 days a week in Central London)
• 25 days Holiday plus bank holidays (plus your Birthday off)
