Senior Designer

We're a 200+ strong agency driven by one belief: when truth is told well, it changes everything. That's been our focus since 1912-and it's just as relevant now.

Truth Well Told isn't just a line. It's how we make sure everyone here has a voice, a role to play, and the chance to make real impact-for our clients and culture alike.

You've probably seen our work: Snoop Dogg bringing joy to Just Eat, Kevin the Carrot changing how Aldi shows up in the world, L'Oréal reminding people they're worth it, and Mastercard showing what 'Priceless' really means.

We're proudly part of McCann Worldgroup, and we stand for Bravery, Integrity and Generosity.

About the Design Team

We're a diverse team of designers with different specialisms-but one shared passion for craft, culture and creativity.

We're constantly pushing ourselves and each other, challenging briefs, and elevating the work at every opportunity.

Design touches almost everything we do-from branding to big integrated campaigns. You'll see our fingerprints on brands like Xbox, Just Eat, Dettol, Nurofen, and Mastercard.

We work closely with creatives, strategists, producers and the wider McCann network to bring the best ideas to life.
