Description

CreateFuture is fast becoming the UK’s most recognisable digital consultancy, with years of experience building digital products and services for major organisations whilst putting our people first. We have offices in the centre of Edinburgh, Leeds, Manchester, and London as well as remote employees located throughout the country. We are a team of creators - whether that’s code, project plans, go to market strategies, culture initiatives, marketing campaigns, large language models or people policies. And together, with our clients, we create the future. This has seen us collaborate and partner across a multitude of industries and sectors, with the likes of PayPal, adidas, Natwest, FanDuel and Money Saving Expert, to name just a few. Our reputation as a partner determined to deliver high-quality, robust and thoughtful products has enabled us to scale to over 500 people in the last couple of years, and it is our amazing people - along with the safe, supportive and friendly culture we have built - that makes CreateFuture a great place to work. Don’t just take our word for it though, we have been recognised by Best Workplaces UK multiple years in a row - across a number of categories - and our employee exit rate is astonishingly low.

About the role and team: As Graphic Designer in the Marketing team, you play a key role in shaping the visual language of our brand, ensuring it is compelling, consistent, and effectively deployed across all channels.

Equally important, you’ll act as a bridge to the wider design and commercial impact community, ensuring our marketing output reflects the high standards of CreateFuture. You build trusted, collaborative relationships within the team, balancing autonomous self-management with a drive to scale our collective capabilities. You are skilled at blending traditional design expertise with AI-literatacy and the ability to work with it to scale the work that you produce.
