We’re looking for a Senior Designer / Art Director with exceptional design craft, a sharp visual eye, and the ability to tell compelling stories across digital formats. This is not a UX role. You’ll develop digital campaign assets across all major touchpoints – from newsletter and banner to TikTok videos and fully designed landing pages. You’re fluent in Figma, skilled in motion and film editing, and excited about what AI tools can do for creative output. You know how to get from moodboard to masterpiece, quickly. And you’re not afraid to open Figma and push out a great layout within hours when needed.
🧠 You love developing smart creative ideas that actually work – no matter the format.
🚀 You thrive in fast-paced environments where thinking, designing, and doing go hand-in-hand.
💡 You know that even the best ideas need precision, craft and a touch of magic to truly shine.
Create digital campaign assets: banners, newsletters, SoMe assets, landing pages
Develop creative concepts for campaigns and turn them into client-ready presentations that showcase your visual thinking and design solutions
Produce motion design assets (After Effects or similar), edit short-form video content
Create campaign imagery and optimize visuals for different formats
Support strategy and creative leads in preparing killer presentations
Contribute to pushing AI-based tools into production
Collaborate closely with creatives, developers, strategists and clients
4+ years experience as designer / creative in agencies or digital teams
Strong conceptual and visual design skills across platforms
Solid skills in Figma, Adobe CC (Photoshop, After Effects, Premiere Pro)
Experience in motion design, editing and storytelling for digital formats
Basic coding understanding (HTML/CSS/JS – you don’t have to code, but you get it)
High experience with AI tools or a strong curiosity to integrate them
Confident communicator with a love for strategy, good vibes, and feedback culture
German and English proficient is a must
An exciting and diverse, international team with many exciting projects and international customers
Direct involvement in building new partnerships and agency growth
Close collaboration with founders, strategists, and creatives
The opportunity to turn this into a fulltime, permanent role and grow
