Digital Content Creator
Full Time Role
Due North Creatives is a marketing agency based in the North East of Scotland – but we’re not your traditional agency. Our people are a fully remote team of creative individuals who work together collaboratively to bring straightforward marketing to our clients across the country.
We’re looking for a creative marketer with both technical and storytelling abilities to create excellent digital content for websites, video and graphic materials. This person will work remotely from home, though regular in-person meetings and client work sessions will break up the weeks so you’ll need to be based in the North East of Scotland – ideally between Dundee and Aberdeen.
Working across a number of industry sectors. You will be a confident individual, who loves to help businesses find their voice online through a variety of marketing mediums.
You understand that it is not about sleazy sales tactics when creating content, it’s all about nurturing a potential customer and helping them to get to know, like and trust a business. After all, people buy from people.
With experience in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and Premier Pro you will be able to support our branding & website designer with a mix of both digital and ‘traditional’ creative content.
