About Connecting Plots

Attention is an open market. Companies aren’t just competing with each other, they’re competing with everything. It’s no wonder people don’t care about brands anymore.

Connecting Plots is an Emmy® and Effie®‑awarded creative communications group. We believe brands have to earn attention, and feeling is the biggest multiplier of effectiveness. So we combine strong creative, tight comms planning and media into one powerfully effective punch. Our position is “Imagination in every impression.”

You're joining a team that doesn't just produce ideas, it plans where those ideas live and flourish. With our expanded suite of capabilities across PR, digital, media, social and production, this role offers a rare chance to create work across a truly connected, full-service ecosystem. If you thrive on merging creative imagination with craft, this is your role.

Role Overview

As Conceptual Designer, you’ll come up with creative concepts and build unique visual identities for a range of brands, then roll them out across broadcast, digital, social and beyond. Our clients are diverse, so no two weeks look the same.

We want someone who loves the thinking and the doing, as happy cracking the idea as rolling the finished identity out across every asset. If something’s broken, you roll your sleeves up and help fix it.

You have a flair for big ideas, a keen eye for design and brand aesthetics, and a feel for what earns attention. You want to create the best shit out there for audiences of all ages, shapes, sizes, nationalities and genders.



And you know the work only counts if it works for our clients and lives in culture, not just if it wins awards.

You’ll have a team of creatives around you to mentor you and help you grow your skills even further. You believe in our vision to crack the agency model of the future and help our industry future-proof itself. And you want to play your part in building something different.
