Role: Senior Digital Designer (Figma) 

Location: Remote working until further notice 

  

About the role: 
As a Digital Designer embedded within our client's in-house team, you will be the resident expert in Figma. Working closely with the Studio Project Lead and wider creative and marketing teams, you will be responsible for creating and adapting a broad range of digital assets that serve the the client’s brands across multiple channels and touchpoints.  

Much of the client's existing creative output lives within Figma boards, and your ability to navigate, interrogate, and build upon those established frameworks will be fundamental to the role. From web banners and Google Ads to social assets and landing page designs, you will take briefs and translate them into polished, on-brand digital deliverables. While you won't be responsible for building or coding any of these assets, you'll bring a strong understanding of how design and digital production fit together — appreciating the technical requirements and constraints that shape great digital design.  

The majority of your work will sit within the B2B space, so an understanding of B2B marketing conventions, audiences, and communication styles will be a distinct advantage. It comes with the expectation that you will own your discipline with confidence — proactively contributing ideas, clearly articulating your design decisions, and presenting your work with authority to both internal teams and client stakeholders. As the team's go-to digital design expert, you will set the bar for quality and bring a level of craft and strategic awareness that elevates everything you touch.  

 

What you'll be doing: 

  • Working within and across existing client Figma boards to create, adapt, and scale digital assets with precision and consistency.  
  • Designing a wide range of digital marketing assets including web banners, social media content, Google Ads, and landing page designs, tailored for their respective platforms and audiences.  
  • Interpreting creative briefs and translating them into compelling, on-brand digital designs that align with broader marketing and campaign objectives.  
  • Ensuring all design output is optimised for its intended digital environment, with a clear understanding of how assets function within the wider digital ecosystem — even where building or coding is handled by others.  
  • Maintaining and evolving design consistency across Figma boards, keeping files organised, accessible, and easy for the wider team to navigate and utilise.  
  • Proactively bringing creative ideas and design solutions to briefs, rather than waiting to be directed — pushing the work beyond the expected.  
  • Presenting design concepts and final deliverables confidently to internal teams and client stakeholders, articulating the thinking behind your creative decisions.  
  • Supporting the wider creative team with design production where needed, using tools such as Adobe Photoshop to complement and enhance your Figma workflow.  
  • Staying across digital design trends, platform specifications, and emerging tools to ensure the team's output remains current, relevant, and best-in-class.  

 

What you need to be great in this role: 

  • Expert-level proficiency in Figma — this is non-negotiable. You must be deeply comfortable working within complex, multi-layered Figma environments and building upon pre-existing design systems and boards.  
  • A strong portfolio demonstrating experience designing across a range of digital formats, including web banners, social assets, Google Ads, and landing pages.  
  • A solid understanding of how digital assets are built and deployed, with the technical awareness to design with production in mind — even without hands-on development responsibilities.  
  • Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, particularly Photoshop, as a complementary tool to your Figma-led workflow would be advantageous  
  • Experience working within a B2B marketing context is a significant advantage, with an appreciation for how design serves business audiences and supports lead generation and commercial goals.  
  • Exceptional attention to detail, with a refined eye for typography, layout, colour, and hierarchy across digital formats.  
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the confidence to present and defend your creative decisions to stakeholders at all levels.  
  • A proactive, solutions-focused mindset — you take ownership of your work, anticipate needs, and consistently look for ways to improve the output without being prompted.  
  • The ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously, prioritising effectively and delivering to deadlines without compromising quality.  
  • Strong collaboration skills and the interpersonal confidence to work fluidly across creative, marketing, and account teams.
