The UI Designer leads the visual execution of digital experiences across websites, portals, and marketing platforms. This role sits at the intersection of interface craft, brand systems, and technical collaboration.
You will design scalable, thoughtful interfaces grounded in user behavior and business goals — while also supporting broader brand and marketing initiatives. This is not a siloed product role. It is a hybrid position within a brand-led agency, where digital experiences must perform, scale, and feel cohesive across every touchpoint.
The UI Designer works closely with the Creative Director, Creative Operations Manager, UX strategists, developers, and client services to translate strategy into refined, production-ready design systems and interfaces. This role carries responsibility for craft, clarity, and scalable execution.

- Solid understanding of UX principles, interaction design, and accessibility standards (WCAG).
- Experience collaborating closely with front-end developers.
- Strong typographic, layout, and visual systems skills.
- Ability to move fluidly between structured interface work and broader creative assignments.
- Experience working in a fast-paced, client-driven agency environment.

Bonus Qualifications
- Experience designing custom portals or application-style interfaces.
- Familiarity with HTML/CSS and modern front-end frameworks.
