Mid-Weight Designer (Branding + UI/UX + Rollout)
Cape Town (Hybrid)
About the Job
We are a Cape Town–based creative tech agency building high-quality digital products and brand experiences since 2010. Our work spans brand identity systems, marketing rollouts, and thoughtfully crafted digital platforms.
We’re looking for a Mid-Weight Designer who is confident across brand, rollout, and UI/UX — someone who can move seamlessly from concept to execution, and from brand systems to pixel-perfect interfaces.
This is a hybrid role based in Cape Town, and applicants must be locally based.
If you care about craft, consistency, usability, and building brands that translate beautifully across digital and physical touchpoints — we’d love to hear from you.
Role Overview
In this role, you’ll work closely with strategists, developers, and senior designers to bring brands to life across multiple channels.
You’ll contribute to:
- Brand identity development and refinement
- Campaign and design rollout across touchpoints
- UI/UX design for websites and digital platforms
- Design systems and component libraries
This role requires someone who is both conceptual and execution-focused — comfortable developing new visual directions, but equally strong in rolling out established systems with precision and consistency.
You’ll be expected to take ownership of mid-sized projects and contribute meaningfully to larger, more complex engagements.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and evolve brand identity systems
- Execute multi-channel design rollouts (digital, social, print, presentation, campaign assets)
- Design user interfaces for responsive websites and digital platforms
- Create wireframes, user flows, and high-fidelity UI designs
- Translate strategy and brand positioning into strong visual concepts
- Ensure consistency across brand touchpoints
- Collaborate closely with developers to ensure accurate implementation
- Contribute to and maintain design systems
- Prepare polished client-ready presentations
- Participate in internal creative reviews and ideation sessions
Desired Qualifications & Competencies
- 4+ years of professional design experience
- Strong portfolio demonstrating branding and UI/UX work
- Solid understanding of layout, typography, and visual hierarchy
- Experience rolling out brands across multiple platforms
- Proficiency in Figma (essential)
- Experience with Adobe Creative Suite
- Understanding of responsive design principles
- Familiarity with UX fundamentals and usability best practices
- Ability to balance creativity with clarity and functionality
- Strong attention to detail and consistency
- Ability to manage time across multiple projects
Bonus Experience (Nice to Have)
- Experience contributing to design systems
- Basic understanding of HTML/CSS (for better dev collaboration)
- Motion design knowledge (After Effects, micro-interactions)
- Experience working in an agency environment
- Exposure to digital product design workflows
- Experience presenting work to clients
What Will Make You Stand Out?
- A portfolio that shows both conceptual brand thinking and meticulous rollout
- Clear examples of UI systems, not just single screens
- Demonstrated ability to maintain brand consistency at scale
- Strong presentation and communication skills
- A refined eye for typography and layout
- Ability to take ownership of projects from concept through final delivery
- Based in Cape Town and comfortable working hybrid
What We Offer
- The opportunity to work across brand and digital projects
- Meaningful ownership and growth within a collaborative team
- Direct collaboration with strategists, developers, and senior creatives
- Hybrid work structure based in Cape Town
- A focused, low-ego creative environment
- Competitive compensation aligned with experience
- The opportunity to shape brands and digital experiences end-to-end
