Artworker

Role overview

We are seeking a highly detail-oriented Artworker to turn creative ideas into polished, production-ready artwork. This position focuses on delivering accurate, compliant, and visually strong files for print, mailing, and fulfilment work, with a balance of creative thinking and technical precision.

In this role, you will produce high-quality artwork that follows brand standards and meets the exact needs of each job. The work includes structured forms, transactional documents, direct mail pieces, presentation packs, proposal materials, and large mailing campaigns. You will work closely with client-facing and production colleagues to keep projects progressing smoothly from initial concept through to final approval and print release.

The environment is fast-moving and varied, so you will need to handle multiple jobs at once, respond quickly to amendments, and make sure each file is set up correctly for print. Accuracy, speed, and clear communication are essential, especially when working on legislation-led layouts, personalised print, and high-volume variable-data projects.

You should be comfortable designing structured forms with a high level of accuracy and have solid working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite, especially InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop.
