Splendid Communications
, an exciting and passionate PR Communications agency, is looking for a talented earned-first Creative to join the team.

In a world of fast scrolls and short attention spans, shouting louder isn’t a strategy. Real impact comes from knowing how to show up in the moments and conversations that matter to people.

At Splendid, we build earned-first ideas that connect with real people, in the places they spend time. We help brands shape stories that people share, that change perceptions, spark actions and drive results.

We believe the best brand-building happens when strategy, creativity and delivery are pulling in the same direction.

That’s why we created the COUNT framework. It keeps every idea culturally sharp, commercially wired and alive, well beyond the pitch deck.

Because conversations that count aren’t coincidental. They’re engineered for impact.

The successful individual will have the opportunity to make a huge impact working on high-profile food, drink, retail, lifestyle and consumer tech clients, and covering the full range of creative briefs from always-on activity to major campaigns.

Is your mind bursting with concepts and ideas? Do you thrive on the opportunity to present your creative work? Are you always looking for, and inspired by, innovation and insight in the world of consumer communications? Are you ready for the next step in your career?

If yes, this role could be for you.

We are looking for someone who answers an emphatic yes to the above questions to join our ambitious and growing creative team.

Your role will be collaborating with the Creative Director to support the Creative, Content and Client Partnership Teams in the following areas:

• Living and breathing earned-first creativity, from always on press office and monthly social content calendars, to major, integrated campaigns, from agile, reactive stories that hi-jack the news agenda to disruptive, fame-driving stunts
• Identifying smart consumer and cultural insights to devise original earned creative concepts that impress clients to win pitches and plaudits
• Developing compelling brand narratives and integrated platforms that work across all and any channel
• Responding positively to existing client briefs and managing feedback to deliver exciting responses on a wide variety briefs
• Producing pitch-winning decks that wow clients with our ideas
• Pitching and presenting ideas in a compelling and exciting, confident way
• Working closely with our creative strategy team
• Briefing and working with our network of external Creative Collaborators
• Working with our studio to develop assets, branding and content creative process and idea generation across the wider agency
• Writing award entries
• Upholding creative excellence through industry benchmarking

Have you had a hand in devising award-winning campaign ideas? Do you know your way around a consumer insight? Are you passionate about popular culture? We need you to be as confident leading brainstorms with the wider agency teams, as you are at generating ideas alone or in pairs. We need you find novel creative solutions to any client brief and be confident at working with creative strategists to deliver compelling and strategic creative executions.

You will be enthusiastic about consumer brands and all forms of popular culture, helping us deliver to our clients’ high standards.

Your portfolio will have evidence of these skills and you will be equally confident and assured in presenting your work verbally, in writing or visually to a range of audiences, informal and formal.
