• Mentor and lead a small design team while maintaining a high standard of craft and execution
• Translate complex ideas into simple, engaging, and intuitive experiences

What You Will Bring

• Strong SaaS, technology, or digital product experience is highly regarded
• Exceptional typography, layout, and visual systems capability
• Strong motion and interaction design skills
• A portfolio showcasing high-end product, branding, and digital design work
• Experience building scalable design systems and leading creative direction
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
• The ability to thrive in fast-moving, evolving environments and make confident, creative decisions

What’s On Offer

• The opportunity to shape and evolve a growing technology brand and product
• A highly collaborative and design-led environment
• A mix of strategic leadership and hands-on creative ownership
