The role
What you'll work on
Marketing and social
LinkedIn carousels and post graphics for the company and founder accounts, campaign visuals for white papers and webinars, paid social ads
Sales collateral
Website
Brand
Your first three months
- Get to know the current brand, the website and our audience, and pick up live requests from week one.
- Deliver a steady flow of LinkedIn and campaign assets, roughly weekly.
- Build a small template kit (social posts, carousels, one-pager, deck) so recurring work gets quicker and stays consistent.
- Design at least one sales asset end to end, such as a case study or event leave-behind.
- Share what you've noticed about where the brand falls short, as the starting point for evolving it.
Who we're looking for
- You have strong craft and a portfolio that shows it. You're happy turning round a LinkedIn carousel one day and thinking about a brand system the next.
- Several years of freelance or agency work across marketing, collateral and web design
- Confident in Figma, and able to produce polished PowerPoint decks
- Comfortable designing web pages for a developer to build, with clear handover files
- Good at turning a rough brief into something clear, and asking the right questions when the brief is thin
- Reliable on deadlines, and organised enough to plan your time around a varying workload
- Taste that leans editorial: restraint, white space, quiet hierarchy
- Experience with B2B, fintech or other technical audiences is a plus, but not essential. We'll bring the domain knowledge.
Practical details
Time: Around 8 days a month, flexing with the workload
Location: Remote, available UK hours
Rate: Day rate, quoted by you
Start: Mid to late November 2026
How to apply
- A link to your portfolio
- Two or three pieces closest to the work above, with a line on your part in each
- Your day rate and your availability from the start date
We'll invite a shortlist to a short call, then ask them to complete a small paid test brief, such as a LinkedIn carousel from our copy. We'll make a decision from that.
