Ideally, we’re looking for someone with agency experience or equivalent that can step straight into the challenge.

Currently we’re all working remotely, and we’ll continue to be flexible after everything returns to normal to help with a work/home life balance. We are ideally looking for someone that can come to the office a couple of days per week to really be part of the team. Our studio is situated in a little village called Ulcombe, near Maidstone (just off Junction 8 of the M20). You’ll need a car to get here as we are on a farm but in return, you’ll get spectacular views, a comfy office and a great team to work with.

If this sounds like your cup of tea, we’d love to hear from you. Please email Sarah, our Accounts Director with a copy of your CV, your portfolio or links to websites you’ve built and why you want to join The Hideout!
