Multimedia Designer

We’re looking for an experienced Multimedia Designer who can quickly turn ideas and complex information into clear, accessible and engaging content.

You’ll bring a broad multimedia skill set spanning graphic design, video, audio, motion graphics, presentations and digital publishing. You’ll understand how layout, typography, imagery, accessibility and user experience work together to create content that is easy to understand and effective for its intended audience.

Working across a varied portfolio of organisational priorities, you’ll create high-quality content for reports, presentations, our intranet, GOV.UK, colleague communications and other corporate publications. You’ll be comfortable taking broad or developing briefs, quickly identifying the underlying communication need and recommending a creative approach that is effective and proportionate.

You’ll work closely with colleagues and stakeholders at all levels, including senior leaders, providing confident professional advice and constructively challenging ideas where another solution would better meet the audience’s needs. You’ll be able to manage competing priorities, work independently and translate briefs into strong creative solutions quickly, combining pace with accuracy, accessibility and attention to detail.

The role offers the opportunity to make a visible contribution across SLC, with a particular focus on supporting internal communications and wider organisational priorities through thoughtful, practical and high-quality multimedia content.

As part of your application, please provide a link to a portfolio or examples of relevant work across different multimedia formats. During the interview, you’ll be asked to select one project and spend up to five minutes explaining the brief, your personal contribution, the creative and accessibility decisions you made, and the outcome.
