About the role

  • Brand Design Lead evolving Ben's visual identity across all touchpoints for a benefits platform. Collaborate to maintain design systems and own high-impact projects while ensuring brand consistency.

Responsibilities

  • Evolving Ben's visual identity: typography, colour, illustration, photography, motion — as we grow into larger, more complex customers
  • Maintaining and building on our design system: components, styles, motion principles, and guidance that scales
  • Designing and iterating on our website: making complex ideas feel simple, keeping it fresh and conversion-friendly
  • Owning high-impact creative projects: campaign work, product launches, events, the work that gets seen and remembered
  • Leading visual direction for video and podcast: storyboarding, shoot planning, filming, editing, and packaging content for social
  • Creating materials that help us win on the biggest of stages: pitch decks, one-pagers, case studies, swag — help us turn complex messaging into visuals that build trust with enterprise buyers

Requirements

  • 5+ years of design experience, with strong brand/marketing design experience (ideally in B2B SaaS or high-growth tech businesses)
  • A standout portfolio that demonstrates creative range (digital, campaigns, web, and storytelling) - motion/video a big plus
  • Strong fundamentals: typography, layout, composition, and art direction.
  • Systems thinking: you’ve built (or meaningfully contributed to) scalable design systems, templates, or brand toolkits
  • Proficiency in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, and video/motion tools (Premiere, After Effects, or similar)
  • Strong communication skills: you can present work clearly, give and receive feedback well, and bring stakeholders along with you.
  • Self-starter energy: organised, pragmatic, and happy figuring things out when things are ambiguous.
  • High attention to detail, with a deep understanding of design best practices and trends.
  • Bonus points if you have experience designing for events: booths, installations, physical brand moments.
  • Have strong motion skills, animation chops, or photography/art direction experience.
  • Hands-on video experience: you've planned shoots, been behind the camera, and have done the editing
  • Curiosity about AI in design: you've explored tools like Midjourney, Runway, or AI workflows in Figma, or used them professionally within your work

Benefits

  • 💰 Competitive base salary + equity, so you own what you build
  • 💳 £100 monthly personal Ben Balance: for whatever works for you, whether that's Netflix, Spotify, or a really expensive cup of coffee! This allowance will increase by £50 for each year of service until you reach £250

  • 🏖 28 days of holidays a year plus bank holidays, and an option to buy or sell 2 days per year. Also, your holiday entitlement will increase to 30 days at your 3rd year of service!
