Senior Brand Designer in Belfast

We're seeking a creative, energetic brand designer to help us win more attention in the market and build a global brand.

The Role

As a Senior Brand Designer you’ll work on our Brand team, reporting to our Principal Brand Designer, Alison Newman. Working with Alison, you’ll create novel branded content and experiences designed to get attention in the market, demonstrating that Cloudsmith is an enterprise‑ready company.

Key Responsibilities

• Creative Concepting: You’ll help to generate ideas for novel, interesting content and experiences built around trends, market insights, customer problems and other stimuli. You’ll critically evaluate your ideas, throwing away anything that probably won’t resonate with target customers. You’ll refine your ideas until they’re as compelling as possible. You’ll describe what channels, content, assets, experiences need to be used or created to deliver on your concepts. You’ll plan for your concepts to be delivered.
• Branded Content: You’ll deliver a steady stream of high‑quality branded content designed to get attention in the market – graphics, assets, content. Much of this will be content for sharing online; web, social – but some will be content for delivery at real‑world events. You’ll work with the wider team to get your work out to a wide audience. You’ll measure the success of your work and refine later concepts in line with what you learn.
• Brand Support: You’ll align to at least one of our other functions (marketing, sales, operations etc.) to support them with the use of our brand. Typically this involves creating compelling documents, presentations, tools & templates – ensuring we always come across as authentic and credible, wherever we show up. You’ll help us maintain and evolve our brand book and brand toolkit.

Required Experience, Qualities & Skills

• Essential Skills: 5+ years of relevant design experience working in‑house at a technology or digital product company, or relevant agency experience. An excellent portfolio of digital design work demonstrating your fundamental skills in brand design, graphic design, comms design.
