You'll work with the content lead in a small, sharp creative team, turning briefs into polished creative for social and product surfaces. You’ll build reusable templates and help evolve the brand in a fast-moving tech space, embracing AI-driven approaches and scalable design systems.

Qualifications

• A personal portfolio website showing your best work (portfolio sites alone won’t count).

• A strong eye for typography, colour, and layout.
• Motion and animation skills, not just static design.
• A feel for social, especially TikTok, and what makes a brand worth following.

Responsibilities

• Design and animate content for social, email, banners, and video, at volume and at pace

• Take work from brief, mood board, and storyboard through to finished, polished creative
• Build and maintain templates that keep our content consistent and fast to produce
• Bring your visual polish to product surfaces from time to time, like landing pages, feature promos, and in-app moments, making them look as good as our campaigns
• Contribute ideas to how our brand evolves in a fast-moving tech space

Job description

Freelancer.com connects almost 90 million people to work across the globe, and we're looking for a designer to help create the content they see every day.

You're a designer who's genuinely excited about where tech and AI are heading, and you want your work to reach millions rather than sit in a folder. You care about craft, you move fast, and you're already testing new tools before anyone tells you to.

We're a thirteen-time Webby winner and the world's largest freelancing marketplace. You'll work hand-in-hand with our content lead in a small, sharp creative team, turning ideas into the social, motion, and campaign creative our global audience actually sees.

What you'll do:

• Design and animate content for social, email, banners, and video, at volume and at pace
• Create content for platforms like TikTok, where our brand meets people in the wild
• Take work from brief, mood board, and storyboard through to finished, polished creative
• Build and maintain templates that keep our content consistent and fast to produce
• Bring your visual polish to product surfaces from time to time, like landing pages, feature promos, and in-app moments, making them look as good as our campaigns
• Contribute ideas to how our brand evolves in a fast-moving tech space

What we're looking for:

• A personal portfolio website that shows off your best work (this is a must; Behance, Dribbble, or PDF portfolios alone won't be considered)
• Strong core graphic design skills: composition and visual storytelling
• A strong eye for typography, colour, and layout
• Motion and animation skills, not just static design
• A feel for social, especially TikTok, and what makes a brand worth following
• A systems mindset: you think in reusable layouts and templates, not one-off pieces
• Confidence with Adobe Creative Suite (After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator) and Figma
• Curiosity about AI and how it's changing creative work
• Bonus: you can take a plain interface and make it look award-worthy. Think standout screens, landing pages, and product visuals, not wireframes or user research

Why Freelancer?

• Grow fast. We promote from within and have produced a lot of the tech industry's product and business leaders
• Do work that matters. Our mission is one billion jobs, real income and opportunity for people worldwide
• Enjoy the culture. HQ is in Grosvenor Place, with weekly classes, events, and the occasional questionable office stunt (we once laid two tonnes of turf for an indoor soccer stadium)
