You're a multidisciplinary visual designer with strong creative instincts, sharp attention to detail, and a genuine curiosity about brands, design, and what makes creative work effective. You can take an idea, ask the right questions, explore it, and turn it into thoughtful, modern creative. You care about the difference between positive and great.

You understand that design isn't just decoration, and you're interested in the strategy and thinking behind the work. You're highly skilled in Figma, comfortable designing across different brands and mediums, and bring motion or animation skills that help ideas come to life. As a Visual Designer, you'll create brand identities, campaigns, digital experiences, social content, print, and motion creative for a diverse portfolio of clients.

You'll work closely with content strategists, project managers, and other creatives to turn briefs and brand strategy into cohesive, engaging visual work. Success in this role means producing consistently strong work, thinking critically about the brief, confidently explaining your creative decisions, and continuing to push both your craft and our creative output forward. Creative & Brand Execution Develop thoughtful, high-quality creative across brand identities, campaigns, digital, social, print, and other marketing touchpoints.

Translate brand strategy and creative briefs into cohesive visual concepts rather than relying on overly prescriptive direction. Design confidently across a range of visual styles while maintaining each client's distinct brand. Apply strong typography, layout, composition, colour, hierarchy, and art direction principles.

Create motion and animated assets that extend ideas beyond static design. Build and maintain thoughtful, scalable Figma files, components, libraries, and design systems.
