Marketing Designer

InvestEngine is an ETF investment platform for individuals and businesses. We focus on making investing simple, low-cost and transparent, with a product that customers actually enjoy using. We operate in a regulated environment and put a lot of care into clear, fair communication and a strong customer experience across our app, web, and all customer touchpoints.

About the role

We're hiring a Mid-weight Marketing Designer to help produce InvestEngine's marketing design output across brand and campaign work — with a strong focus on motion. Roughly half the role is static/brand design and half is marketing motion and animation.

This is a hands-on delivery role. You'll produce high-quality marketing creative that applies our existing brand system and follows the creative direction, workflows and quality bar set by the Design team. You'll sit within Design, working alongside product and comms designers, and partner day to day with Marketing to turn campaign briefs into effective, on-brand assets — bringing in-house the motion capability we currently rely on freelancers for.

What you'll do

• Produce marketing creative across digital and print touchpoints (brand, paid social, partnerships, email, landing pages, OOH, affiliates, organic social).
• Create marketing motion and animation — animated social assets, campaign videos, and brand animation — as roughly half of your workload.
• Apply our established brand system and guidelines consistently across all outputs.
• Take marketing tasks from brief to delivery against agreed direction; flag blockers and questions early.
• Work closely with Marketing to understand campaign objectives and deliver on-brand creative that supports acquisition and clarity.
• Balance quality and speed, using our design system and templates to work efficiently.

What we're looking for

You don't need to tick every box, but most of these should feel close to home:

• Around 3–5 years' experience in marketing/brand design across campaigns, brand assets, and communications.
• Demonstrable motion/animation skill, with a showreel — animated social, campaign video, or brand animation.
• Strong visual craft and the ability to keep work consistent across channels and formats within an existing brand system.
• Comfortable executing to a defined creative direction and delivering reliably with light supervision.
• Well organised, proactive, collaborative, can-do attitude.
• An interest in investing or personal finance.

Tools and ways of working

• Proficiency in Figma.
• Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop).
• Motion/video: proficiency in After Effects (and Premiere Pro for video). Core to the role, not a nice-to-have.

Nice to have

• 3D design (Cinema 4D / Blender).
• Experience working in a regulated environment such as investing.
• Experience using AI tools in design workflows, with good judgement about when to apply them.

What we offer

Impact from day one — You'll work on visible, meaningful marketing initiatives that shape how InvestEngine presents itself to customers and partners.

Room to grow — Clear scope to deepen your craft and grow toward a senior remit as the team and your responsibilities expand.

Transparent and open culture — We share decisions openly, encourage clear communication, and value thoughtful challenge.

Supportive, high-calibre team — You'll work alongside experienced colleagues across design, product, marketing, and support who care about quality and clarity.

Hybrid and flexible working — We focus on outcomes and trust people to manage their time and work responsibly.

Recruitment process

• Application review — portfolio (including a motion showreel) and CV.
• 30-minute intro call with TA.
• Short online cognitive test.
• A short practical design/motion exercise.
• Follow-up interviews with key stakeholders — typically the Chief Design Officer, Head of Marketing, and a senior member of the Design team.

How We Work

We’re a lean, fast-moving team that values clarity, ownership, and transparency.

You’ll have the freedom to experiment, the responsibility to follow through, and the backing of a team that values clear thinking and open dialogue. We believe in solving problems at the root, not just treating the symptoms.
