ABOUT THE ROLE

We are a UK brand and digital design studio working with B2B and B2C businesses across two core areas: brand and rebrand projects, and website design. All designs are produced in Figma.
The studio operates as a solo practice. The Founder handles strategy, concepts, creative direction and client relationships himself, and now needs a senior designer to take on the execution so he can stay focused on the creative direction rather than the rollout.

This is a hands-on design role at a high standard. Concepts, brand direction and client sign-off are handled by the Founder; the Remote Specialist develops that approved direction into complete, polished sites. The work needs independence and taste rather than supervision — this is not a role for someone who needs step-by-step instruction or repeated design correction.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

-Taking an approved concept, brand direction or signed-off homepage and developing it into complete page designs across a site
-Designing responsive layouts that hold up across breakpoints
-Working on e-commerce and Shopify design projects, including product discovery, collection pages and product pages
-Solving UX problems within an agreed direction: navigation, hierarchy and user journeys
-Building clean, well-structured Figma files that are ready for development handover
-Compiling brand guideline documents from signed-off assets, including application examples (billboards, website banners, social) and rules for spacing, type and colour
-Explaining design decisions clearly and flagging problems early
-Developing brand collateral and marketing materials once direction has been approved.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Advanced Figma skills - Auto Layout, components, variants and structured, reusable design systems (non-negotiable)
Senior-level experience as a web or digital designer
Excellent UI and UX skills, with a strong grasp of responsive behaviour, navigation and user journeys
A high standard of visual design - typography, hierarchy, spacing, and the ability to turn a brand into a distinctive website
E-commerce design experience, particularly Shopify (strongly preferred)
Brand and identity design experience (bonus, not essential)
A portfolio of website work with a clear account of what they personally contributed
Genuine independence - able to progress work between reviews without hand-holding
Easygoing and collaborative - open to feedback and straightforward to work with
A strong communicator in written and spoken English
Quality-first - both speed and quality matter, but quality takes priority
Own reliable equipment and internet connection
