WE’RE HIRING!

IDIDTHAT IS LOOKING FOR A UNICORN. Content, Design & Social

Are you design-brained, social-savvy and slightly unhinged?

Because we’re looking for someone who makes beautiful things on the internet and doesn’t immediately panic when they see a rambling voice note and a gif of the Golden Girls in their inbox.

We’re the Wikipedia of South African Ads. But cooler.

IDIDTHAT.co is the platform that finally asks the important question – who actually did that?

We celebrate the full ecosystem behind South African marketing, creative and commercial filmmaking. Directors. DOPs. Editors. Agencies. Creatives. Production companies. Post houses. Marketers. The whole crew. The ones who made the thing.

IDIDTHAT is a good place and we need someone to help keep it looking good and feeling alive.

You’ll do real things. Here are those things.

No “synergising content across multiple verticals” here. You’ll be doing actual stuff:

  • Design simple-but-slick graphics and visual posts for social
  • Turn our articles into social posts people actually want to read
  • Design artwork for live events
  • Post Stories, screen grabs and highlights of the work we feature
  • Add promotional muscle behind key posts
  • Keep an eye on comments and conversations (without starting a war)
  • Help lay out articles on the site

We’ll level with you.

You’ll need a strong design eye.

You should be comfortable writing short captions. Witty is good.

This is a remote role, so you need to be the kind of person who can work from home. You’ll also need your own computer, phone, and access to fast, reliable internet.

You’ll need to work fairly quickly. We move fast…but sometimes we also move slow. Be flexible, like our industry, sometimes there’s a lot of ‘hurry up and wait’ happening..

Knowledge of the advertising or production industry is a bonus. But if you’re curious and you hustle, we’ll talk.

Why you’ll love it here.

Work from literally wherever, we don’t care as long as the work arrives.

You’ll be surrounded by South Africa’s best creative work every day. Beats posting about insurance.

The whole SA creative industry will be in your feed.

Okay. Let’s go.

Send us:

  • A short intro about yourself – who you are, what you’re about, why IDIDTHAT
  • Your CV
  • Examples of design work or social posts you’ve made
  • Links to accounts you’ve managed, if applicable (if the old client was terrible, you can leave that one out)

Send everything to anne@ididthat.co
