Part-time freelance creatives and designers

Longitude is looking for freelance creatives and designers to support on the digital execution of our clients’ thought leadership campaigns.

For the right candidates, this is an opportunity to collaborate with an innovative and exciting company that supports some of the world’s best-known brands – while working on a flexible, project-by-project basis.

We want to hear from individuals based in the UK with proven expertise in:

Infographics/data visualization (creating a compelling visual narrative from research survey data)

Social content (data-based static and animated ‘tiles’ based on individual data points)

Animation (primarily restricted to manipulating data and lines of text on screen, with scope for some illustration animation)

Visual content for microsites (eg designing parallax-scrolling pages to support a range of static text, images and content assets)

Specifically, we are looking for individuals with the following skills and personal qualities:

Proficiency in standard design tools (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop), as well as in relevant tools where required (e.g. After Effects for animation, etc.)

Ability to produce innovative, clean and artful design solutions – especially for the visualization of numerical data

Ability to work closely with demanding international clients and challenge their thinking where necessary

Basic understanding of data, combined with flawless attention to detail

Excellent organizational and time-keeping skills

Understanding of UX and UI across web, mobile, social

Knowledge of HTML and CSS is a plus
