We’re This Way Up, a strategic brand and design agency specialising in healthy food and drink. We work with ambitious brands that are shaping the future of wellness – from brave founders and challenger startups to global FMCGs like Unilever and Danone. Our team is creative, collaborative, and genuinely passionate about making a positive impact through the brands we build.

We are growing our presence and influence, and we’re looking for someone who loves social media, storytelling and culture to help us bring our world to life.

We’re looking for a Digital/Social Media Designer to lead our agency’s social channels and support content creation across a growing list of client brands. This is a brilliant opportunity for someone early in their career who wants to learn fast, create meaningful work and play an active role in shaping the voice and visibility of brands in the wellness space.

FOR CLIENTS:

  • Help manage posting schedules and community interactions.

 

STUDIO & CREATIVE CULTURE:

  • Bring energy, perspective and curiosity to the room.
  • Collaborate closely with designers, strategists and founders.
  • Contribute ideas, try things, learn, improve & repeat.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME:

 

  • A place to grow – real ownership and the chance to shape your role.
  • Exposure to pioneering brands and global players in the wellness space.
  • A collaborative and supportive team culture.
  • Hybrid working with 2 days/week in our studio in Marylebone.
  • Training, mentorship and creative development support.
  • The chance to be part of something meaningful, playful and ambitious.

ABOUT YOU:

 

  • Enthusiastic, proactive and genuinely excited by social media culture.
  • Confident across Instagram/TikTok, with a feel for what makes content land.
  • A strong communicator – you can write clearly, playfully and with personality.
  • Curious about brand-building, food, drink and health & wellness.
  • Comfortable using Adobe CC, and/or other platforms like Canva, Figma, etc.
  • Competent in motion graphics.
  • Not afraid to try new things, experiment and learn as you go.
  • A team player – collaborative, open and ready to contribute to an energised creative culture.

 

Experience is great, but mindset matters more. If you love content, storytelling and healthy brands – we want to hear from you and see examples of content you’ve made – this can be personal, uni projects, TikToks, Instagram edits, anything that shows your creative energy.
