Job description
The Role
We’re looking for a Visual Designer to join a small creative team and create visual assets that bring stories to life. You’ll work on 2D environments, backgrounds, props, illustrations, and campaign imagery, combining traditional design skills with AI-powered image generation.
You’ll collaborate closely with the design lead, producer, and animation team to create high-quality visuals that match each project’s established style. This role is ideal for a proactive, detail-oriented designer who can work independently, adapt to different creative needs, and turn ideas into polished visual assets.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Create and extend 2D environments, backgrounds, props, illustrations, and other visual assets
- Combine original sketches, AI-generated images, and manual editing to develop high-quality visuals
- Refine compositions, lighting, colours, and visual details to achieve the desired look
- Maintain visual consistency across assets and ensure they fit the established style of each project
- Create designs that work within larger environments and can be adapted across different platforms
- Share work in progress, gather feedback at key stages, and incorporate it into the final output
- Collaborate with designers, animators, and the producer to deliver visual assets that support storytelling
What We Expect
Must-have
- Strong 2D design and image-making skills, with a good understanding of composition, lighting, colour, and typography
- Proven experience with Adobe Creative Suite, especially Photoshop and Illustrator
- Hands-on experience with AI image-generation tools such as Midjourney, ChatGPT, Nano Banana, Seedance, or comparable tools
- Strong prompt-writing skills and the ability to guide AI tools towards a specific visual direction
- Ability to think in 3D space and design environments, props, and visual assets that fit a coherent style
- Excellent spoken and written English
- Independence, ownership, attention to detail, and proactive communication
- A collaborative mindset and the ability to work in a fast-paced creative environment
Nice-to-have
- Experience in gaming, animation, or similar visual-production environments
- Experience with After Effects
Why This Role Is Worth Your Time
- Flexible schedule: Start with a part-time workload, with flexible working hours agreed upon with the team and the opportunity to grow into a full-time role
- Creative ownership: Take responsibility for your assignments, contribute ideas, and help shape the final visuals
- AI-powered design: Combine traditional 2D design with AI image-generation tools in your creative workflow
