About the role
This is not a UX/Product Designer role. Candidates whose portfolios consist primarily of UX case studies, user flows, or app/dashboard UI are not a fit, even with a high level of seniority or relevant fintech domain experience. Required background in: Luxury, Fintech, Banking, or High-end digital design studio domains.
Requirements
Must-haves:
- Design Portfolio — required; applications without one won't be considered
- Portfolio must show real client work with clear individual authorship — it must be clear what the candidate personally created, not a team
- 5+ years of experience specifically as Illustrator / Visual Designer / Brand Designer
- Experience specifically in Luxury / Fintech / Banking / High-end digital design
- Portfolio must show versatility — work across different industries/project types, not just one field (e.g. gaming only)
- Strong execution of core logo/brand identity craft — not just adjacent skills (3D, illustration), but confident quality in the fundamentals of branding
- Different solutions across different brand identity projects — not the same visual pattern repeated every time
- Confident command of Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop
- Experience with 3D software: Blender or Cinema 4D
- Portfolio featuring a range of illustration styles, including 3D work
- Must include: illustrations, branding, social media posts (Twitter, LinkedIn), banners and backdrops (including roll-ups)
- Location/timezone: EU or UAE. English level proficient (team is international)
- Style must be flexible enough to adapt to the client's brand, rather than a strongly defined, niche personal aesthetic
- High attention to detail
- Professional, appropriate portfolio presentation
