OVERVIEW

Understanding design and creative roles.

Design and creative roles can vary depending on the brand, channels and level of responsibility involved. Some positions focus on graphic, digital or motion design, while others cover wider brand development, campaign concepts and creative direction.

As a design recruitment agency, we work with agency and in-house teams across roles from junior designers through to creative leadership. That gives us a clear view of how responsibilities, expectations and progression differ across the design and creative job market.

We’ll help you understand where your experience fits, what employers are looking for and which design and creative roles align with what you want next.

    We review your application

    Every application is reviewed by a consultant. We assess your experience against the brief and whether there's a strong fit. Due to volume, we're not always able to provide individual feedback at this stage.

    If shortlisted, we'll arrange a conversation to understand your experience, motivations and what you're looking for next. This helps us make sure we're only putting you forward for roles that genuinely fit.

  • STEP 5

    If you move forward, we'll help you prepare with clear insight into the role, company and interview process. We'll stay in touch throughout, so you're never left chasing updates.

Testimonials

What our candidates say about us.

  • Candidate placed, October 2026

    My experience with Digital Waffle has been excellent, and I’m really happy to have found my new position with their support throughout the recruitment process.

    I would especially like to thank Harry for his professionalism, excellent communication, and support throughout the entire process. Everything was explained clearly, and I was kept informed at every stage, which made the whole experience smooth, straightforward, and stress-free.

    I truly appreciate the great service and the positive experience from start to finish. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for a new opportunity. Thank you for making the whole process such a positive experience!

  • Candidate placed, August 2026

    I worked with Tommy Black at Digital Waffle when looking for a new developer role and would recommend him without hesitation. Tommy was consistently responsive and proactive throughout. He was always quick to follow up after interviews and offer useful advice on how to prepare. There was a period where things went quiet on the employer side for a few weeks, but Tommy kept chasing on my behalf and kept me in the loop throughout. He placed me in a role I'm really happy with at Knights, and the whole process felt like he genuinely had my interests in mind rather than just trying to close a placement. If you're a developer looking for your next role, reach out to Tommy.

  • Candidate placed, August 2026

    Went through the recruitment process with Tommy, and whilst I can only speak as an applicant, he was everything you would want to work with as a recruiter. Tommy kept me up to date with the process, checked in before and after interviews, and was really great to work with. It also helps that Tommy successfully helped place me in a fantastic role at a great company and I'm looking forward to starting.

  • Candidate placed, April 2026

    Conor helped me get a new role within cyber security to start within a month of being made redundant. He was a massive help and really approachable all the way through from initial contact to securing the role. Conor is a credit to digital waffle, and the 5 stars is for him, even if he is a Birmingham fan!

  • Candidate placed, April 2026

    From the very beginning, Conor was responsive, transparent, and genuinely invested in finding the right fit. He kept me well informed throughout the process, provided useful insights ahead of interviews, and ensured everything moved quickly and smoothly. Thanks to his efforts, I was successfully offered a role which I’ve now accepted. The whole experience felt seamless and well-managed from start to finish.
