Crafting intuitive digital experiences, while learning and growing within a collaborative, successful creative agency. Vacancy Overview You'll join Strafe Creative, a passionate creative agency rooted in Nottingham, working with brands big and small. We build great products through collaboration, innovative thinking, and a dedication to craft. Here, every teammate is empowered, encouraged to grow, and part of a vibrant culture. The Role We're on the hunt for a talented, ambitious Mid Level Designer to join the Strafe Creative team. You'll design seamless, conversion focused digital experiences, contribute to strategic design discussions, and play a key role in guiding our junior designers as they grow. With the support of our senior team, you'll balance multiple projects, lead presentations, and bring bold, user focused ideas to life. Most of our projects - around 80% - are focused on digital design, including UI (User Interface) and UX (User Experience) for websites, digital products, and complex dashboards. The remaining 20% involves branding and visual identity. What you'll be doing Designing user friendly interfaces under the guidance of senior designers. Keeping your Figma files spotless, organised, labelled, and ready for handover. Gathering and applying user feedback to improve your designs. Balancing multiple projects and deadlines with support from Project Managers. Presenting design ideas internally (and with clients once you're confident). Staying curious; experimenting with new tools, keeping up with industry trends, and sharing what you learn. What we're looking for Figma fluency - the basics are essential; the rest you'll learn here. A natural eye for detail and pixel perfect execution. Strong time management; you'll check in on daily and keep Project Managers in the loop. A collaborative mindset; you must be open to feedback and hungry to grow. Experience we'd love to see We value hands on experience with digital product design, experience in Figma, and a portfolio that showcases your ability to create clear, functional, and aesthetically pleasing interfaces. Benefits and Culture Highlights Hybrid or remote flexibility - ideally within a 2 hour commute to our Nottingham office. Flexible working hours - start anytime between 7 am and 9:30 am. Family friendly policies - paid leave for pregnancy appointments. Personal Development Fund - £1,000 a year after probation for skill improvement. Monthly Bonus Scheme - rewards for hitting performance goals. Regular socials - team events, both online and in person. Mental health support - free Headspace app access, monthly check ins, and on site mental health first aiders. Application Process Portfolio Submission Requirements Your portfolio is the most important part of your application. We require clear evidence of your practical design skills and ability. Preferred Format: Submit a personal website or a single, consolidated PDF/document. Hosting: Avoid third party sites; a dedicated site or document gives you full control. Practical Checks URL: All links must be valid and load instantly. If password protected, provide the password. File Size: PDF files should be under 20 MB. We are primarily assessing your foundational practical design skillset. Content: Showcase 3 to 6 digital based projects.

Strong layout and spacing awareness. Basic understanding of UI Design principles. Eligibility: Applicants must be UK based and eligible to work in the UK.
