Overview
Our client, a high-growth global intelligence and data provider, is seeking an experienced and strategically minded (mid/senior level) design lead to help own and elevate the brand across every touchpoint. As our brand guardian, you will lead the creation of high-quality visual assets spanning marketing collateral, editorial reports, sales materials, digital campaigns, events, and product/website design. This is a hands-on Design Lead role for someone who loves crafting premium, professional, highly polished creative for a global B2B audience. As the creative lead you'll collaborate closely with marketing, sales, editorial, and product teams to ensure visual consistency, brand impact, and exceptional creative execution. You will coordinate external suppliers where necessary. Any AV editing skills are a strong bonus. This role blends creativity, technical skill, and strategic thinking - ideal for a designer who wants real ownership, influence, and visibility within a growing organisation. This is an ideal opportunity for a mid-designer ready to step up, or a senior designer seeking a part‑time role with autonomy, visibility, and real creative influence.
