Social Media Designer (Paid Social)
Sydney, NSW
We’re looking for a Social Designer who can take a brief, work out the idea, and then actually make it, someone who likes to make things happen and is very capable on the tools.
This role sits at the intersection of creativity, craft and performance. You’ll concept, design and produce social‑first creative that moves fast, works hard and delivers results. Most of the work is paid social and campaign rollout across a mix of clients, so you’ll need taste, pace and a point of view, and the ability to produce without the quality falling over.
What you’ll do
- Develop social‑first design solutions across static, motion, paid social, brand, digital and TTL environments.
- Concept campaigns and take them through to finished work, from ideation to final art.
- Design static and motion assets for Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, display and landing pages.
- Cut short‑form video using After Effects, Premiere or CapCut.
- Translate project needs into effective social solutions that are culturally intuitive and platform‑native.
- Build campaign toolkits and adapt them across formats, audiences and placements.
- Use performance data to decide what to iterate on, and what to kill.
- Collaborate with cross‑functional teams across creative, media and strategy.
- Work across a range of clients and categories, including fast‑moving TTL environments.
- Bring ideas proactively, not just when asked.
- Identify where AI tools genuinely speed things up, and where they don’t.
What you’ll need
- 4–7 years’ experience in an agency or in‑house creative team.
- Integrated campaign experience across social, digital, brand and TTL activation.
- Real craft, layout, type, hierarchy, colour, composition and brand systems.
- Paid social capability: you know why a Meta ad works, and a press ad doesn’t.
- Ability to concept, not just execute.
- Motion capability, enough to make something move with confidence.
- Strong Adobe Creative Suite and Figma skills.
- Highly organised with exceptional attention to detail.
- Resourceful, proactive and entrepreneurial spirit with a strong can‑do attitude.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Intuitive sense of cultural specifics and nuances.
Nice to have
- Experience in regulated categories, UGC‑style ads, A/B creative testing, final art and pre‑press.
- Decent copy instincts.
