? Freelance Senior Branding Designer (MVP Identity – Pre-Seed Startup)

? Remote | ? Contract | ? Branding & Identity |

We're looking for a top-class freelance branding expert to help us create a powerful MVP brand identity and landing page that speaks to trust, innovation, and accessibility. This will be the first expression of our product to the world – and it needs to make an impression.

About Us:

We’re building the UK’s first truly digital syndicate lottery management platform, and we’re backed by a team of former Facebook, Google, and McKinsey professionals. Our mission is to bring a transparent, community-driven experience to millions of UK lottery players.

What We're Looking For:

• A senior branding designer with a proven track record of creating bold, memorable brand identities
• Experience at a top-tier UK branding or design agency (e.g. Pentagram, DesignStudio, Made Thought, DixonBaxi, Bibliotheque, etc.)
• Strong portfolio of early-stage startup brand systems, including logo, color, type, and digital applications
• Experience collaborating closely with founders and product teams
• Comfortable designing for a lean MVP (brand + landing page only at this stage)
• High standards for craft, simplicity, and emotional resonance
• Brand identity (logo, colours, type, visual language)
• Brand guidelines (lightweight but scalable)
• Design for MVP landing page (Figma or equivalent)

Timeline & Budget:

• We aim to launch a landing page within 3–4 weeks

If you’re an exceptional designer who knows how to make early-stage brands shine — and you’ve helped take new ideas from napkin sketch to credibility — we’d love to hear from you.
