Job Description

About Us:

Here at Impact, we specialise in bringing retail design strategies to life, with passion, innovation and strategic insight. From full store environments through to the mass roll out of temporary displays, our creatives and craftsman work hard to transform briefs into tangible realities.

A bit more about us:

We're an end-to-end creative agency - curious, insightful, honest, and innovative, but at the very heart of it, we're the friendly creatives. We have no egos here, just a common purpose to create innovative and engaging experiences.

Our 59,000 sqft facility is complete with client services, creatives, technicians and production which means we have full autonomy over each of our projects. No need to outsource, it's all right here in-house.

We've designed and implemented digital innovation for some leading brands, including lift and learn technology, as well as the iconic No Strings Attached campaign for ghd.

While many agencies might shout about this, we live and breathe retail, from our creative strategy through to crafted manufacturing, we really do it all!

The Team:

We have a team of 8 permanently employed Creative Designers from a variety of backgrounds to support a wide range of projects, fluctuating with freelance support to covers spikes in workload, holidays and if we need a different skillset. We build the team to suit the project.
