Junior Creative Team
6 month FTC/placement

About Us
Iris is a global integrated agency driven by one simple philosophy: Participate or Perish. We create ideas that earn attention and inspire people to interact with brands in meaningful ways. Working with some of the world’s most ambitious brands, we combine strategy, creativity, technology, and media to deliver impactful campaigns.
What You'll Bring
We're not expecting you to know everything. We are looking for signs of creative potential and the drive to keep getting better.
You'll probably have strengths in many of these areas:
- Big Idea Thinking
- You enjoy solving problems creatively and can turn an insight into an idea people remember. You're curious about culture and always asking "what if?"
Craft
Whether it's writing, art direction, design, AI-assisted creativity, editing, motion, illustration or making beautiful presentations, you care about the quality of what you produce and are always looking to improve your craft.
Storytelling
You know that the best ideas don't just look good—they make people feel something. You can explain your thinking simply and bring others with you.
Making
You're someone who likes creating, not just talking. You experiment, prototype, test, build, iterate and aren't afraid to get your hands dirty to make ideas happen.
Collaboration
The best work never happens alone. You enjoy building on other people's thinking, giving generous feedback and making the whole team stronger.
Curiosity
You notice what's happening in culture, technology, brands, entertainment, gaming, sport, fashion or music—and you're always bringing fresh inspiration into the room.
What You'll Do
- Create bold ideas that work across social, brand, experience, digital, earned and integrated campaigns.
- Bring concepts to life through compelling visuals, words, prototypes, AI tools, films, mock-ups and presentations.
- Explore new technologies and creative tools—including generative AI—to push ideas further and faster.
- Work closely with strategists, designers, account teams, makers and clients to shape great creative work.
- Build presentations that inspire confidence and excitement.
- Develop your craft every day through coaching, feedback and collaboration.
- Pitch ideas with enthusiasm and confidence.
- Stay curious about culture and help ensure our work feels fresh, relevant and brave.
What Success Looks Like
In your first year you'll begin to:
- Generate ideas people want to build.
- Create work that earns a place in client presentations—and increasingly in production.
- Build a portfolio you're genuinely proud of.
- Develop confidence presenting your thinking.
- Become known as someone who contributes positively to every brief.
- Embrace feedback and use it to grow quickly.
- Champion new technologies, creative techniques and fresh cultural thinking.
- Live the Iris belief that participation changes everything.
We Don't Hire Finished Creatives
We hire people with potential.
If you're waiting until you think you're "good enough", you're probably waiting too long, be brave, with us!
- Show us your ideas.
- Show us your curiosity.
- Show us how you think.
We'll help you build the rest.
