Job description

Who we are?

Abel & Cole has pioneered organic, ethical and sustainable food delivery for over 30 years. Doing things better is our bread and butter; from saving over 60 million plastic bags by using reusable boxes for our food deliveries, to finding alternatives to plastic long before it hit the headlines. We are forever challenging ourselves to find the most positive way to do business and want everyone to eat organic because it’s one way to save the future. It’s these values that enabled us to become B Corp certified; an optional audit we’ve gone through to recognise how we put people and planet before profit, as well as help us find room for further improvement.

Role Summary:

The Junior Digital Designer will help Abel & Cole to achieve its commercial goals by executing digital design briefs across web, email and social media. You’ll sit in the in‑house Brand & Creative Team within the Marketing department. We’re an energetic, collaborative group, so you’ll get to work closely alongside other designers, copywriters and our studio. There will be plenty of coaching to train you up to execute our weekly briefs, so this role is perfect for someone with the fundamental digital coding and design skills needed, ready to learn how to execute briefs in line with brand guidelines. Please provide your portfolio as part of your application.

Key Responsibilities & Objectives:

• Design and build weekly email communications, following the brand email template and styling

• Execute the business‑as‑usual weekly website content updates in HTML templates from end to end, with minimal amends across our homepage, category banners, and acquisition landing pages
• Attend performance sessions and briefings and contribute to brainstorms relevant to your streams of work
• Manage multiple briefs in workload and have full ownership of delivering content on time
• Deliver content that is technically accurate at all times. This includes using briefing information such as correct components or offer codes, tested links, on brand colours and so on
• Follow the creative production process, as outlined by the Senior Project & Production Manager who manages creative projects into two‑week workload sprints
• Act as an ambassador for our B Corp values: make all decisions with our social and environmental impact in mind and look for opportunities, no matter how small, to use our business as a force for good.

Essential Skills and Experience:

• You have a portfolio of professional or personal work that demonstrates your experience designing and coding digital communications across email, web, and social media
• You’re comfortable using Adobe Creative Suite
• Ability to edit clean, maintainable and performant HTML and CSS
• Attention to detail is a must, with exacting standards for accuracy and consistency
• Great sense of design and composition with a strong eye for layout and appreciation of brand guidelines

Nice to Have Skills and Experience:

• Photo editing
• Understanding of UX design
• Use of After Effects
• Experience using Content Management Systems
• Experience using Figma

Personal Attributes:

• An approachable, collaborative attitude and a love of working in a team, within a wider company
• Self‑motivation, organisation and accountability, with proactive communication skills
• Ability to handle multiple deadlines at varying stages of development, delivering on time, and work well under pressure
• You welcome coaching and feedback to help improve the performance of our digital communications

What we offer:

This is a full‑time position working Monday to Friday, 37.5 hours per week. Our core working hours are 9.00am - 5.30pm, however, we offer flexibility. You will be based in our Fulham office but we have a hybrid working environment, with two days in the office required, on site, per week. And we expect our designers to visit our Mitcham studio a couple of times a month.

• 33 days inclusive of bank holidays (FTE)
• A free box of fruit and veg every week
