Junior Integrated Artworker

About Yes Agency: Yes Agency and Optus work as one team, from product development to creative execution. This close collaboration sets us apart from external agencies. It enables us to deliver experiences people genuinely want in a way that inspires and excites. ‘Yes’ has never been more important than right now. As Optus forges ahead, we’ve built a team that can challenge preconceptions and limitations to produce the best work around. Get this right and we’ll reach our goal of being the most impactful on-campus creative agency in the region, for our people, partners and community. The Opportunity: The Junior Integrated Artworker is responsible for leading our objective of maintaining high client satisfaction, work quality and team satisfaction. The Studio is responsible for all print and/or digital based artwork that leaves the agency and for ensuring that it has been created to the highest standards possible. Studio members proactively get involved in all jobs, leverage their understanding of print, motion, 3D and digital processes, take ownership of production and highlight any potential watch outs and opportunities to the creative and project management teams.
