Open Positions

Wax Digital is a growing creative agency working with scientific and technical brands across coatings, energy and science. We’re building a close-knit team of designers, editors and creative thinkers who care about doing things properly — not just quickly. Whether freelance or permanent, working with us means being part of a collaborative, real-world team that values structure, clarity and mutual respect. We support each other, we share ideas openly, and we invest in growth — both for the business and the people inside it. If you’re looking for meaningful work, thoughtful process and a team that genuinely works together (not just online), you’ll feel at home here.

Junior freelance video editor

Not a full-time role. Not employment.
More like a trusted creative partner we can bring in regularly.

At Wax Digital, we work with scientific & technical and brands — coatings, energy, science, manufacturing — so the work is often:

  • Product videos
  • Motion-led explainers
  • Launch films
  • Social cutdowns

This would suit someone who:

✔ Is early in their freelance career
✔ Is solid with Premiere Pro / After Effects
✔ Wants consistent work (but values flexibility)
✔ Is happy collaborating with designers & animators
✔ Cares about craft, not just speed

What we can offer:

  • Become part of a growing team
  • Regular briefs (as work comes in)
  • Clear process & feedback
  • Fair day / project rates
  • Long-term collaboration if it clicks

If this sounds like you:

Mid-weight graphic designer

This isn’t employment. It’s a long-term freelance collaboration — someone we can bring in consistently as projects land.

At Wax Digital we work mainly with technical and industrial brands (coatings, energy, science, manufacturing). A lot of the work sits at the intersection of:

  • Brand identity & guidelines
  • Campaign visuals
  • Product literature & brochures
  • Presentation systems
  • Social & digital content

I’m looking for someone who:

✔ Has 3–6 years’ experience
✔ Can take a brief and move independently
✔ Understands brand systems, not just aesthetics
✔ Is confident in Adobe CC (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop)
✔ Has strong layout judgement and typographic control
✔ Is comfortable working in structured processes

What we can offer:

  • Ongoing project flow
  • Clear creative direction
  • Clients in interesting, technical sectors
  • Fair freelance rates
  • Long-term collaboration if it clicks

I did some freelance work for Wax Digital Ltd and they were great. Excellent communication, very professional and a joy to work for!
We have worked with the team at Wax Digital since their inception, and with Stephen for a number of years prior to that. Comfortably one of the easiest agencies to work with, delivering the highest quality output at all times. Their attention to detail and in-depth knowledge to our brand guidelines makes the briefing process super easy.

We will continue to trust the team moving forward and are excited to develop our partnership.

One of the best agencies I have ever worked with – highest quality work, on time and on spec. From high volume graphic design work to top creative videos and animations, the result is always amazing. No what is needed – from rigidly defined and specified to broad creative co-creation – Wax Digital delivers every time. I am super happy to have them as an agency partner.
