You don't just design; you think. \n • Visual Versatility: The ability to switch visual styles instantly—from lo-fi, authentic "UGC style" aesthetics to polished, cinematic messaging. \n • Platform Fluency: You are obsessed with internet culture. You know the current visual trends, meme formats, and editing styles dominating the feeds right now. \n • Experience in a fast-paced agency or newsroom environment. \n \n Desirable \n • Experience working in a formal "creative pair" (AD/CW). \n • Motion design or illustration skills. \n • Channel Knowledge: Deep understanding of visual formats across platforms—from 9:16 vertical video composition and safe zones (TikTok/Reels/Shorts) to YouTube thumbnails and Reddit image trends. \n Technical \n • We need an Art Director who can visualize ideas quickly and effectively using modern tools. \n • Creative Suite Proficiency: High proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) for mocking up concepts and creating key visuals. \n \n • Presentation Design: Advanced skills in Google Slides and PowerPoint. You must be able to design compelling decks that narrate a creative journey for stakeholders. \n • Video Prototyping: Basic knowledge of Premiere Pro or CapCut/After Effects is desirable to create "rip-o-matics" or mood films to demonstrate a video concept. \n • Collaboration Platforms: Proficiency in Google Workspace (Drive, Slides)and Figma (for collaborative design/whiteboarding). \n Behaviours \n • Communicating and Influencing: You can articulate creative ideas clearly to non-creatives, using visuals to bridge the gap and influence decision-making. Similarly you are able to absorb feedback from policy or senior officials and make constructive compromises. \n • Delivering at Pace: You can produce high-quality scamps and visual concepts rapidly to meet the demands of a reactive news cycle. \n • Seeing the Big Picture: You understand how the visual tone of a campaign impacts public perception and aligns with the goal of rebuilding trust. \n • Making effective decisions: You analyse and use a range of relevant, credible information from internal and external sources to support decisions and present strong recommendations in a timely manner outlining the consideration of other options, costs, benefits and risks.

You'll strengthen the brand thinking that underpins the work, ensuring projects feel connected, distinctive, and strategically considered from first concept through to final installation. \n \n You'll work hand in hand with the 3D team, developing ideas together rather than in sequence, so that graphics, identity, and physical space are conceived as one brand experience. \n You'll also work closely with the founders to shape and build the team around you, with real influence over who joins, how the discipline is structured, and how the studio's creative offering grows. \n \n The early focus is on understanding the culture, building relationships, and bringing clarity to existing processes. Over time, you'll become a key voice in defining what the next chapter looks like. \n \n Your days will look something like this... \n\n • Lead creative thinking across brand, brand experience, campaign, environmental graphics, and experiential projects\n, • Develop and refine concepts that translate consistently across multiple channels and touchpoints, from campaign assets through to applied graphics in physical space\n, • Direct environmental graphics and applied branding, including wayfinding, signage, super-graphics, and retail and exhibition environments\n, • Partner closely with the 3D team from concept stage, so brand and space are developed together as a single idea\n, • Hold the creative thread across multiple concurrent projects, ensuring clarity and cohesion throughout\n, • Work with the founders to build and shape the 2D team, contributing to hiring, structure, and how the discipline develops\n, • Mentor, develop, and inspire a multidisciplinary team of designers and creatives\n, • Deliver constructive creative direction, feedback, and critique that improves both the work and the people producing it\n, • Collaborate with project teams to scope briefs, manage timelines, and balance creative ambition with commercial realities\n, • Present work directly to clients, building trusted relationships and navigating feedback with confidence\n, • Contribute to the long-term evolution of the studio's creative output, standards, and ways of working\n\n \n You might be our perfect match if... \n\n • You have significant experience leading creative teams across brand, campaign, environmental graphics, experiential, or spatial projects\n, • Your portfolio demonstrates strong strategic thinking as well as outstanding creative execution, and shows brand ideas realised in physical environments as well as in campaign work\n, • You understand how brand ideas translate across physical, digital, and experiential channels, and how a brand behaves at architectural scale\n, • You have experience collaborating with 3D, spatial, or interior designers, and you're comfortable working in materials, scale, and production realities as well as in artwork\n, • You have experience managing creative teams, mentoring designers, and raising standards through leadership\n, • You're interested in helping build a discipline, not just running projects, and would relish shaping a team alongside the founders\n, • You are confident presenting to clients and managing senior stakeholder relationships\n, • You can balance creative ambition with commercial realities, budgets, timelines, and delivery requirements\n, • You enjoy connecting ideas across disciplines rather than operating within a single specialism\n, • You're motivated by making good work even better rather than fixing broken environments\n\n \n Why this one... \n\n • A senior creative leadership role with genuine influence over the future direction of the studio\n, • The chance to build and define the studio's 2D, brand, and environmental graphics offering, with founder-level backing behind it\n, • Work already pipelined, so you're building on live momentum rather than waiting for the phone to ring\n, • A close working partnership with an established 3D team, and the rare opportunity to see your brand thinking built at full scale\n, • Direct access to the founders, and a real say in who you hire and how the team grows\n, • Diverse work spanning campaigns, product launches, experiences, environments, and brand communications\n, • A collaborative culture that values creative thinking and gives leaders the autonomy to make an impact\n, • Strong commercial backing and a clear commitment to investing in the creative function\n, • Hybrid working with a balance of collaborative studio time and focused independent working\n

Agilia Infrastructure Partners is a specialist infrastructure consultancy established in 2016. We support some of the UK's most complex and high-value infrastructure programmes across the water, energy, transport and defence sectors, providing expert advisory and delivery support to clients navigating the most demanding regulatory and commercial environments in the UK. \n \n Our Procurement Service Line plays a leading role in helping clients deliver best-in-class procurement outcomes. We collaborate with contracting authorities and regulated utilities at every stage of the procurement lifecycle – from strategy development through to contract award – bringing deep regulatory expertise and genuine delivery experience to every engagement. \n \n ROLE: \n \n This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced procurement professional to join Agilia at Associate Project Director level. We are looking for someone who has not only advised on procurement but delivered it. You will bring hands-on experience of delivering complex, high-value procurements in regulated environments: having sat on the client side or in a deeply embedded delivery role, managed live tender processes, chaired evaluation panels, navigated regulatory risk in real time, and driven programmes through to compliant contract award. \n \n Working closely with the Procurement Director, you will lead client-facing procurement delivery, grow the Procurement Service Line, and act as a credible senior practitioner across the public sector and regulated utility procurement. You will be an active contributor to a collaborative, high-performing team – mentoring colleagues, sharing knowledge openly, and taking genuine satisfaction in seeing others develop alongside you. You will help build our tools and frameworks, contribute to Agilia’s market presence, and bring an enthusiasm for procurement as a strategic profession that is visible to clients and colleagues alike. \n \n You will understand the practical pressures our clients face: constrained internal capacity, political and regulatory scrutiny, affordability challenges, and legacy commercial frameworks. You will model best-in-class procurement practice - grounded in real delivery experience - and help build a high-performing team capable of executing complex, high-value procurements for some of the UK's most significant infrastructure projects. \n \n KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: \n \n Procurement Strategy Development: – Lead the development and implementation of robust, compliant procurement strategies for complex infrastructure programmes. Draw on direct delivery experience to ensure strategies are not only technically sound at the approval stage, but workable in execution - reflecting the practical realities of live procurement management, supplier behaviour, and regulatory risk. \n Procurement Execution and Management: Lead the day-to-day delivery of live procurement processes, including managing tender portals, issuing tender documentation, coordinating and chairing evaluation panels, managing bidder communications and clarifications, overseeing moderation, and ensuring compliant standstill and award processes. Identify and manage procedural risk in real time and know how to recover when things do not go to plan. \n Regulatory Compliance and Risk Management: Draw on direct, firsthand experience of operating under the Procurement Act 2023, or its predecessor regimes to guide clients through their compliance obligations. This means practical application - having structured procurements, drafted compliant notices, managed standstill periods, and navigated challenges or complaints. Ensure clients understand their obligations and risks at each stage with clear, actionable guidance. \n Route-to-Market: Identify and recommend appropriate procurement routes working closely with legal, commercial, and technical advisors to build well-evidenced business cases. Candidates should be able to demonstrate having recommended and subsequently delivered across more than one procurement route. \n Market Engagement: Design and lead structured market engagement activities, including market soundings, supplier days and pre-qualification processes, to inform procurement decisions and build competitive supply chains. \n Stakeholder Management: Function as a trusted senior adviser to client procurement and commercial leads, programme directors and executive stakeholders. Understand the specific pressures faced by public sector and regulated utility clients - including constrained internal procurement capacity, political and regulatory scrutiny, affordability challenges, and legacy commercial frameworks and provide pragmatic guidance that is workable within those constraints, not just technically correct. \n Assurance and Governance: Support internal and external procurement assurance reviews, preparing high-quality documentation including procurement business cases, strategy papers, evaluation frameworks and approval submissions. Bring direct experience of presenting procurement decisions to senior governance boards and defending those decisions under scrutiny. \n Team Leadership: Provide direction and mentoring to junior members of the procurement workstream, supporting their professional development, and ensuring quality of output across the team. \n Thought Leadership: Contribute to Agilia's capability development by sharing insights on regulatory developments, market trends, and best practice procurement approaches within regulated infrastructure sectors. \n \n ESSENTIAL SKILLS: \n \n Hands-on Procurement Delivery: Demonstrable, end-to-end experience of managing and delivering complex, high-value procurements on major public sector infrastructure or capital programmes – from strategy development and route-to-market through tender management to compliant contract award. Strong theoretical knowledge alone is not sufficient; we are looking for people who have done this. \n Procurement Legislation: Direct experience of delivering procurements under PA23 and/or Procurement Contract Regulations 2015 (PCR15) Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016 (UCR16) and The Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 (DSPCR11), including structuring compliant processes, drafting or reviewing compliant notices, managing standstill periods, and steering programmes through to award. Understanding of Utilities and/or Defence regulations, including familiarity with qualification, tender procedures, regulatory constraints, and for defence security and single source considerations. \n Client-Side or Embedded Delivery Experience: Experience of working within, or in a deeply embedded capacity alongside, public sector contracting authorities or regulated utilities – whether through direct employment, secondment, or sustained consultancy roles where you held functional accountability for procurement decisions and governance submissions. \n Procurement Execution: Proven record of managing live procurement processes end-to-end, including tender documentation preparation, supplier communication management, evaluation coordination and moderation, and compliant award processes.
