Your job is to change that.\nWe're looking for an ideas-led Creative Designer to work on campaigns that help people plan ahead, talk openly about death and make a choice that's right for them and their family. You'll be one of the first creative hires in Life Services Group, our new parent company, so you'll help shape how our brands look, sound and show up in the world. Most of your time will be spent on Simplicity, our affordable funeral plans brand. But you will have opportunities to work on briefs for our other brands too.\nDeath is part of life, and we are building brands that are warm, honest and brave enough to say so. This role is an opportunity to do something different in a sector that hasn’t changed for decades.\nAbout us\nLife Services Group brings together some of the UK's best-known names in end-of-life care: Dignity, Simplicity Cremations, The Crematorium and Memorial Group, and Farewill. Together we help around 200,000 families every year, with 3,000 colleagues across 585 sites and 45 crematoria.\nSimplicity offers funeral plans and direct cremations with clear prices, no hidden fees and the freedom to say goodbye in your own way.

Our tone is warm, honest and optimistic, never clinical and never hollow.\nWhat you'lldo\nCome up with the big ideas. Turn briefs, customer insight and data into campaign concepts, then bring them to life across social, video, digital ads, email, web, print and out-of-home. \nMake the work, not just the deck. You'll design, art direct and get hands-on, taking ideas all the way from sketch to launch. A big part of the role is turning ideas into high-quality assets for paid and organic channels, and adapting them across formats, platforms and audiences. \nTest and learn. Work with the marketing team to see what's landing and use what you learn to make the next idea even stronger. \nEvolve the Simplicity brand. Help shape how Simplicity looks and feels, including how we use illustration, photography and graphic devices, to create a distinctive visual language that's ours alone.\nBring other brands along. Over time, you'll work across our other brands too, moving confidently between each one's visual identity, audience and tone. You'll know when to follow a brand closely and when there's an opportunity to push it forward. \nShare and present ideas. Lead ideation sessions, present concepts to stakeholders and art direct photographers, illustrators or agencies when needed. \nKeep it right. Funeral plans are regulated by the FCA, so you'll work with our compliance team to make sure brave ideas are also clear, fair and honest.\nWhat you'llbring\nA portfolio full of ideas.
