Job description

Senior Graphic Designer (Fixed-Term, 1 Year)

• Full-time
• Department: Studio - Capacity Co
• Anticipated Hours per Week: 40
• Work Setup: Hybrid

We connect people and teams to success. At HelloKindred, we're a talent recruitment and creative staffing agency that partners with some of the world's leading companies to deliver exceptional creative, marketing, and digital talent. Through our KindredCreative services, we also provide on-demand design and creative solutions that help our clients move from ordinary to exceptional.

Location: Hybrid

Working Hours: UK Shift (3 PM - 12 AM )

The Opportunity

We're looking for a Senior Designer to join our team on a one-year fixed-term contract (maternity cover). This is a chance to work on diverse, high-impact projects across our internal brand work and client-facing deliverables. And if you're a great fit and the need continues, there's potential for this to transition into a permanent role.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll be joining our existing design team, reporting directly to our Design Lead. Your days will be split between creating compelling marketing materials for HelloKindred's own brand and delivering exceptional design work for the clients we serve. Think everything from infographics and sales decks to brand campaigns and event materials—a healthy mix that keeps things interesting. You'll be the go-to person for turning complex business concepts into clear, visually engaging designs that resonate with professional audiences. Whether it's a white paper that needs to look polished or a LinkedIn campaign that needs to stop the scroll, you'll bring strategic thinking and creative execution to every project.

The Process

We want to make sure this is the right fit for both of us, so our hiring process includes:

• Two assessment rounds (we'll share more details as we go)
• Final conversation with the team

Requirements

• 6–7+ years of graphic design experience, specifically in B2B environments— this is crucial. We're talking corporate clients, professional services, enterprise software, that world. Not consumer brands or retail.
• Background working in an agency setting or within an established organization's marketing team.
• A portfolio that showcases your work across various B2B deliverables: case studies, sales presentations, corporate brochures, event materials, digital campaigns, and more.
• Expert-level proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (this is non-negotiable).
• Strong presentation design skills, particularly in PowerPoint.
• Working knowledge of AI design tools like Midjourney, DALL-E, Adobe Firefly, Canva's Magic Design, Figma AI features, Photoshop's generative fill, Beautiful.ai, or Gamma
