About Nexus Black

Nexus Black is an AI-first business within IFS, built to move quickly, challenge traditional ways of working, and turn the potential of AI into real-world outcomes for enterprise customers. We build AI to solve hard problems for the industries that keep the world turning: up on power lines, down on factory floors, and out in the field.

Our products — Resolve (field service and predictive maintenance), Flow (production planning), Comply (regulatory compliance) and Reason (analytical reasoning) — are used by technicians and engineers who cannot afford a tool that doesn’t work first time. We pair 40 years of IFS industrial depth with the technical pace of a start-up, and we get results in weeks, not months.

We’re building a team of highly capable, high-ownership people who are comfortable operating across traditional boundaries. We care less about rigid job descriptions and more about people who can understand a problem, get hands-on, and own the outcome.

The Role

We’re looking for a Marketing and Brand Designer to be the visual engine of our marketing team. Someone equally comfortable designing a social carousel, laying out a leaflet, mocking up an event booth, and cutting a short motion piece for video. You’ll work closely with marketing, events, and content colleagues to make sure every touchpoint, digital or physical looks and feels unmistakably NxB.

This is a hands-on, generalist creative role. You won’t specialise in one format; you’ll flex across all of them, often in the same week.

What You’ll Do

  • Design social content across channels (LinkedIn, X, etc.) — static and short-form
  • Build and maintain website content and landing page assets
  • Design print and physical collateral: leaflets, one-pagers, sales materials
  • Create event assets: booth mockups, floor plans, signage, banners, and on-site branding
  • Produce motion graphics and video assets — edits, animated graphics, social cuts, event loops
  • Partner closely with the marketing team to translate campaign briefs into visual output at speed
  • Maintain and evolve brand consistency across every format you touch
  • Manage multiple concurrent projects with tight event/campaign deadlines

Skills & Experience

Core (must-have):

  • Strong portfolio spanning both digital and physical design (not purely digital-only work)
  • Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) or Figma equivalent
  • Working knowledge of motion/video tools (After Effects, Premiere Pro, or similar)
  • Experience designing for print production (bleed, CMYK, file prep for printers)
  • Experience with event/environmental design — booth layouts, signage, large-format print
  • Solid grasp of brand systems — typography, colour, layout consistency across formats
  • Comfortable working directly with a marketing team, turning briefs around quickly

Nice-to-have:

  • 3D mockup / rendering skills for booth or environment visualisation (SketchUp, Cinema 4D, or similar)
  • Basic animation/motion design beyond edits (Lottie, simple 2D animation)
  • Photography or videography experience for event/on-site content capture
  • Familiarity with web design handoff (Webflow, or working alongside developers)

What Success Looks Like

  • Marketing campaigns launch with consistent, on-brand assets across every channel without bottlenecks
  • Events are visually strong on-site — from signage to booth to leaflets — with minimal last-minute scrambling
  • Social and video content feels distinct, not templated, and holds up against category competitors
