Mid Weight Digital Brand & Ux/ui

Johannesburg, GP, ZA, South Africa

Job Description

Role Overview





We are a rapidly scaling B2B Emergency Response as a Service organisation with an ambitious vision--and we're looking for a dynamic designer. This is not a role for someone waiting to be briefed. It's for the designer who thrives in creating from a blank canvas, takes initiative, and builds structure where none exists.



You will be responsible for shaping, defining, and implementing the visual identity across every customer touchpoint. You will operate at the intersection of brand strategy, digital design, UX/UI thinking, multimedia, and AI-led workflow innovation.



Unlike typical design roles, this position requires someone who views design not only as a creative craft but someone passionate about efficiency, scale, and design systems. You won't just deliver assets; you'll build the processes, tools, and frameworks that enable design excellence at scale.



If you have a diverse skill set, crafting visual storytelling narratives, adept at adopting new tools and helping a small team and think creatively about solving solutions.



If this is you, apply now!
