Creative Designer

Role overview

Golf Travel Group is seeking a Creative Designer to join its expanding marketing team in Angel, Islington, London. This is a full-time, permanent position based entirely in the office. The successful candidate will help create effective visuals for paid advertising and email marketing across two travel brands, shaping the look and consistency of creative systems that reach millions of impressions each month.

This opportunity is suited to a designer who enjoys making work that supports commercial outcomes, not just visually polished portfolio pieces.

The role will support two brands: Golf Travel Centre in the UK and GolfTours.com in the US. The company has also been recognised in the Sunday Times Top 100 Fastest Growing Companies for three consecutive years: 2023, 2024 and 2025.

What you will do

• Create paid social advertising assets for Meta, including static, carousel and occasional motion or video formats.
• Develop email marketing campaigns and build reusable templates.
• Design flexible systems that can be used repeatedly across ads and email.
• Work closely with the marketing team to turn briefs into creative work that delivers results.
• Produce additional design materials such as presentation decks, event collateral, business cards and partner-facing assets.
• Support wider creative direction across both brands.

Experience and profile

The company is ideally looking for someone with around 1 to 2 years of design experience and a portfolio that demonstrates a clear understanding of marketing-led creative work.

You should be comfortable working with AI tools such as Claude within your workflow and be someone who cares about how creative performs, not just how it looks.

Essential skills and requirements

• Strong working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite, including Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign.
• Experience creating paid social advertising content.
• Experience designing email campaigns and templates.
• Ability to create reusable creative frameworks and templates.
• Comfort using AI tools as part of the design process.
• A mindset focused on performance, effectiveness and commercial impact.

Nice to have

• Video editing ability, particularly for social content such as Reels.
• Motion graphics experience.
• Interest in golf, travel or lifestyle brands.
• Curiosity about marketing strategy, paid media and performance marketing.

Not the right fit if

• You mainly rely on Canva templates for your work.
• Your background is more in social media management than design.
• You prefer highly prescriptive direction rather than solving creative problems independently.

Benefits

• Competitive salary.
• 25 days of annual leave plus bank holidays.
• Annual team trip.
• Frequent resort and content-related trips.
• Discounts on holidays through the company’s brands.
• Office-based role in Angel, Islington.
• Real opportunities to grow as the business expands.

Application details

Applicants should submit a CV and, most importantly, a portfolio. The employer would especially like to review examples of paid ads, email campaigns or templates, any case studies or performance outcomes, and a brief explanation of your thinking or design process.

Start date

The expected start date is July 2026.
