Digital Design Manager

Williams F1 Team is in the middle of a serious brand evolution, and digital is the primary surface where fans, partners and the wider world experience it. You’ll lead the digital creative output, owning the quality and direction of everything put into the world across owned digital channels, sitting at the intersection of creative, social and brand.

Lead the digital creative

• Own the creative direction and quality bar across all digital outputs — williamsf1.com, the Williams F1 Team app, campaign assets, email, and digital moments around key race activations.
• Set the standard for how the Williams brand expresses itself digitally, pushing the work to be sharper, more distinctive and more effective over time.
• Lead concept development for the season’s biggest digital moments — race activations, livery reveals, fan campaigns and product launches — from brief through to delivery.

Integrate across creative, social and brand

• Work directly and regularly with the Head of Creative, Head of Social and Head of Brand to align digital creative with the broader brand and content strategy.
• Ensure digital outputs are genuinely integrated with social campaigns and brand activity, acting as the connective tissue between teams.

Drive performance and build the team

• Partner with the Fan Growth & Performance team to deliver creative built for paid and organic channels, optimised for reach, engagement and conversion.
• Manage, mentor and develop the digital design team, leading briefing, feedback and review processes.
• Own the digital component library, design system and motion principles, keeping them current and genuinely useful.

What we need from you

• 7+ years of design experience, with a proven track record leading digital creative at a senior level — ideally inside a fast-moving consumer, sports or entertainment brand, or a top agency.
• Deeply fluent across the full digital canvas: web, app, campaign, performance creative, brand.
• Experienced managing and developing designers, with a genuine interest in building a team.
• Expert in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects).
• Data-informed but creatively led, calm under pressure, and passionate about Formula 1.
