Middle-weight Digital & AI Designer

We’re looking for a remote middle‑weight Digital Designer with strong UX thinking and confident AI skills to join our creative team. This role is for a designer who takes genuine pride in craft, delivers consistently high‑quality work, uses AI to expedite their production and delivery, and understands the value of collaboration and shared outcomes.

You’ll design thoughtful, Figma fluent, user‑centred digital experiences across a wide range of platforms. We place no hierarchy on channels: the same care, creativity, and ambition applied to a global podcast intro should be brought to a PowerPoint template or presentation system. Strong ideas, elegant execution, and great user experience matter wherever they live.

This role is expected to:

• Operate autonomously on mid‑scale work
• Make sound design judgements
• Meaningfully raise the quality and ambition of the team’s output

…but is not expected to:

• Own strategy in isolation
• Lead teams
• Define global design systems independently

UX & Digital Design

• Design intuitive, user‑centred digital experiences from concept through to polished UI.
• Translate briefs, user needs, and business goals into clear user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and interface designs.
• Balance usability, accessibility, performance, and brand consistency across all digital outputs.
• Present design rationale clearly and respond to feedback thoughtfully and efficiently.

Storytelling with motion

• Create purposeful motion, micro‑interactions, and transitions that enhance clarity, pacing, and emotional engagement.
• Apply the same creative energy to everyday platforms (e.g. presentations, templates) as to high‑profile content moments such as campaigns or podcast intros.

Modern digital production & optimisation

• Demonstrate strong understanding of modern digital production, including file types, formats, compression, and animation techniques.
• Optimise assets with sensitivity to file size, load time, accessibility, and platform constraints to deliver the best possible user experience.
• Prepare accurate, production‑ready assets for web, email, presentation, and audio‑visual platforms.
• Work confidently within digital asset specifications, brand guidelines, and accessibility standards.
• Uses AI tools to expedite production and delivery

Collaboration & teamwork

• Collaborate closely with designers, developers, marketers, and stakeholders to deliver cohesive, high‑quality outcomes.
• Contribute ideas generously, build on others’ thinking, and support a positive, craft‑focused team culture.

Experience:

• 3-6 years of professional experience working in digital design roles, with demonstrable exposure to UX/UI design across real, shipped work.
• Hands‑on experience designing end‑to‑end digital experiences, including user flows, interface design, and animated or interactive elements.
• Proven experience applying motion design in a digital or UX context (e.g. interface transitions, presentation systems, content intros/outros, or campaign assets).
• Experience delivering work within established brand systems, adapting ideas across platforms such as web, presentation tools, audio‑visual content, and campaigns.
• Experience working as part of cross‑functional teams, with evidence of contributing as a part of a team, rather than working siloed.

Skills:

• UX & Digital design
• Must be Figma fluent
• Strong, practical UX/UI capability, including wire framing, prototyping, and designing intuitive user flows for mid complexity projects.
• Ability to balance usability, visual craft, performance, and accessibility in everyday design decisions.
• Confident articulation of design rationale, trade‑offs, and decisions.

Motion

• Experience creating motion for both high visibility moments (e.g. content intros, campaigns) and "everyday" platforms (e.g. presentation templates, transitions, UI motion).
• Strong judgment in when motion adds meaning— and when restraint improves clarity.

Digital production

• Solid understanding of modern digital production practices, including:
• Appropriate use of file types (e.g. SVG, Lottie, WebP, MP4/GIF where relevant)
• Compression, optimisation, and file size management
• Using AI to expedite production & delivery related work
• Platform specific…
