About the RoleWe’re looking for a Senior Digital Designer to step in during a maternity leave and support ongoing client work across website design, digital branding, and investor-focused communications.
This role is hands-on and fast-paced, requiring someone who can confidently take ownership of projects, collaborate with internal teams, and deliver thoughtful, high-quality design solutions with minimal oversight.
Much of our work involves translating complex, often technical or data-heavy information into clear, engaging digital experiences—so comfort working with structured content is key.
What You’ll Be Doing- Lead the design of responsive websites from concept through to handoff (Figma → dev-ready)
- Create clean, modern UI systems and page layouts aligned with brand and business goals
- Translate complex information into clear, engaging digital experiences (often data-heavy / corporate content)
- Work closely with developers to ensure designs are feasible and implemented accurately
- Collaborate with project managers and stakeholders to meet deadlines and maintain project scope
- Iterate on designs based on feedback while maintaining design integrity
- Contribute to and refine internal processes, templates, and component libraries
- Design investor presentations in PowerPoint, balancing clarity, hierarchy, and visual polish
- Develop and apply brand systems across collateral, including business cards, stationery, and conference banners
- Design and develop brand identities, including logos, colour palettes, and typography systems, for new and existing clients
What We’re Looking For- 5+ years of experience in digital / UI/UX design
- Strong portfolio of website work (bonus if in corporate, finance, or data-heavy industries)
- Advanced proficiency in Figma (components, auto layout, systems thinking)
- Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, including Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign
- Comfortable working within a structured design process (wireframe → design → refinement
- Solid understanding of responsive design and front-end constraints (HTML/CSS/Tailwind is a plus)
- Strong attention to typography, layout, and information hierarchy
- Strong communication skills and comfort presenting work to internal teams or clients
- Able to manage multiple projects and shifting priorities without compromising quality or attention to detail, while confidently owning work end-to-end
- Working knowledge of AI tools and the ability to apply them thoughtfully to improve efficiency and support design workflows.
Nice to Have- Experience designing for investor relations, corporate, or B2B websites
- Experience collaborating directly with developers
- Basic understanding of accessibility standards (WCAG)
- Experience with basic video editing and/or web animation (e.g., motion graphics, micro-interactions)
What Success Looks Like in This Role- Designs are thoughtful, consistent, and easy for developers to understand and implement
- You help keep projects moving forward and proactively unblock issues when they arise
- Clients and internal teams feel confident in your work
A Note on the ContractThis is a maternity leave contract role, with the potential for extension depending on team needs.
Please include a portfolio showcasing your work. We’re especially interested in projects that demonstrate strong structure, clarity, and problem-solving, not just visual style.
