Build one of the UK's fastest-growing personal brands
We're looking for an exceptional Brand Designer to help build and evolve the visual identity of an entrepreneur with a social audience of more than half a million people and ambitious plans to grow that into the millions. You'll help define how the brand looks, feels and communicates, creating a distinctive visual identity that works across social media, YouTube, websites, books, software products, education, events and new businesses.
You'll join a small, ambitious creative team where ideas move quickly and you'll have genuine influence over the brand from day one.
ABOUT THE FOUNDER…
Our client is a proven entrepreneur. He built a software company from scratch, scaling it to more than £50 million in revenue before selling the business in 2024 for an eight-figure sum.
Over the last year, he's applied the same principles to his personal brand, growing an audience of more than 500,000 followers organically through practical, experience-led content around entrepreneurship, business and wealth creation. He is on a mission to help creators run their own successful businesses.
As well as this, he is also building a creator SaaS platform, creator accelerator and co-working community, a book, and online courses. The challenge now is to create a recognisable, distinctive brand identity that Will become globally recognised
The opportunity
You'll work closely with the Creative Director, founder and wider media team to develop, own and evolve the visual brand. Rather than inheriting a finished brand book and simply following it, you'll help create the system. You'll be responsible for translating ideas into a visual identity that is recognisable, consistent and capable of working across multiple channels, products and businesses.
Your work will include:
Developing and evolving the overall visual identity
Creating brand guidelines, design systems and visual principles
Defining typography, colour, layout, imagery and graphic styles
Creating distinctive visual concepts for new launches and campaigns
Building scalable templates and systems for the wider creative team
Designing for Instagram and LinkedIn
Developing the visual identity of YouTube and podcast content
Designing landing pages and digital experiences
Creating brand identities and assets for new products and ventures
Designing books, reports, course materials and educational products
Creating event and physical brand assets
Maintaining consistency while continually pushing the brand forward
You'll also experiment with AI and emerging creative tools to prototype concepts quickly, explore new visual directions and increase the speed at which ideas can move from concept to launch.
ABOUT YOU
We're looking for someone with exceptional creative taste and strong brand thinking. You're not simply good at making individual assets look attractive. You can take an idea, personality or business and turn it into a coherent visual world. You understand how typography, colour, imagery, layout and design systems combine to create a recognisable brand.
You'll probably have experience:
Developing or evolving brand identities
Creating visual identities and brand systems
Turning brand strategy into compelling creative
Designing across digital, social and physical formats
Creating brand guidelines and scalable templates
Working with Figma and Adobe Creative Suite
Designing content for Instagram, LinkedIn and other digital platforms
Producing high-quality creative at speed
Using or experimenting with AI-powered creative tools
Your portfolio matters more to us than your job titles. We want to see evidence that you can think conceptually as well as execute beautifully. We'd particularly love to see projects where you've helped take a brand from an early idea through to a recognisable visual identity.
