Senior Graphic Designer

Job description

London - Hybrid What You'll Be Doing Digital Asset Creation & Library Management ; Design and produce website imagery, social media graphics, email banners, and digital campaign assets. Build and maintain a structured, scalable digital asset library for use across the business. Create and manage reusable templates to ensure brand consistency at speed, with all assets optimised for their respective platforms and audiences. Conference & Event Materials ; Design conference banners, exhibition stand graphics, signage, and printed collateral. Produce digital banner ads and paid media creative for event promotion. Manage print-ready file preparation and liaise with external print suppliers, often working to tight timelines across multiple events simultaneously. PowerPoint & Client-Facing Presentation Design ; Design and maintain a suite of branded PowerPoint templates for product content, sales decks, and client reports. Translate complex data and research findings into visually clear, compelling slides. Work closely with Product, Commercial, and Client Delivery teams to produce polished, on-brand presentations, and develop infographics and data visualisations that make insight content accessible and engaging. Brand & Visual Identity ; Act as the guardian of Bolt Insight's visual identity, ensuring consistency across all touchpoints. Identify opportunities to elevate and evolve the brand as the company scales. Test new creative ideas and approaches with a proactive, experimental mindset, and brief and manage external freelancers and agencies where additional resource is needed. Internal Design Processes & Brand Governance ; Design and implement a clear, company-wide intake process for design requests. Build and maintain a centralised brand guidelines document that is accessible and usable for all teams. Create self-serve design resources that empower non-designers to produce on-brand work independently. Establish feedback and approval workflows that maintain quality without creating bottlenecks, and champion brand standards in a way that is collaborative and educational across the business. Video Editing & Motion Content ; Edit and produce short-form video content for social media campaigns, including reels, story ads, and organic posts. Cut and assemble client video reels with branded graphics, titles, transitions, and music. Create simple motion graphics and animated assets to support campaign storytelling. This is a supporting capability rather than the core of the role — you don't need to be a video specialist, but you should be confident and competent with the tools. About You You have 5+ years of graphic design experience, with a strong portfolio spanning digital and print. You have proven experience in a B2B environment, ideally within tech, SaaS, consulting, market research, or a data-driven business. You're an expert in Adobe Creative Suite including InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop. You have solid video editing skills and are comfortable in Premiere Pro, After Effects, or equivalent tools. You have strong PowerPoint design skills and understand that a great deck is a craft in itself. You're experienced with Figma and/or Canva for collaborative and templatised workflows. You have demonstrable experience building or improving design request processes, intake systems, or creative operations workflows. You've created and maintained brand guidelines that are actually used, not just documented. Mindset & Approach Self-starter who thrives in fast-paced, startup and scale-up environments with limited structure. Strong creative judgement, you know when something is good and can articulate why. Operationally minded as well as creative; you enjoy building systems and processes as much as making things. Confident communicator who can influence non-designers to care about brand and quality. Curious and proactive, you spot opportunities to improve and elevate without waiting for a brief. Comfortable operating as the sole designer while maintaining high standards and output quality. Collaborative across functions, equally at home working with Sales, Marketing, Product, and Leadership. A sharp eye for data visualisation and the ability to make complex information visually digestible. Why Work for Bolt Insight?
