Brand Designer

Affinity is the relationship intelligence CRM trusted by private equity, venture capital, and investment banking professionals to manage their most valuable asset: relationships. Our platform transforms how deal teams source opportunities, manage pipelines, and accelerate deal flow by automatically capturing and organizing relationship data. With our 72-hour implementation and AI-powered insights, we're redefining what's possible in private capital markets.

The Role

We're looking for a versatile Brand Designer to bring Affinity's visual identity to life across every touchpoint. This is a hands-on execution role—you'll create high-quality design assets, build scalable templates and systems, and own production from concept through delivery. Working alongside our Brand Design Lead and reporting to the Director of Brand, you'll balance creative craft with executional rigor, ensuring everything we ship feels cohesive, elevated, and unmistakably Affinity.

What You'll Do

Design Brand & Campaign Assets

• Design high-quality assets across campaigns, email, social, paid media, events, and out-of-home — including banners, carousels, signage, booth visuals, and swag
• Design and build landing pages and website updates in Webflow
• Help build a great brand from the inside out—create merch and internal assets that our team loves

Build Scalable Templates & Systems

• Create reusable, on-brand templates and grab-and-go assets that teams across Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, and HR can use confidently
• Translate creative work into guidelines, templates, and resources that enable teams across the company to execute independently while maintaining quality
• Ensure brand consistency while thoughtfully evolving our visual language as the company grows

Support Product Marketing & Launches

• Partner with Product Marketing and Product Design to create assets for product launches, customer stories, and major announcements
• Create clear, compelling visuals that explain product workflows, features, and value for blog posts, product pages, and sales materials
• Design sales presentations, one-pagers, and case studies that support the revenue team

What You'll Bring

Don't meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every qualification. At Affinity, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you're excited about this role but your past experience doesn't perfectly align with the qualifications above, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.

Experience & Portfolio

• 3-5 years of experience in brand, marketing, or visual design, with work spanning digital, physical, and illustrative outputs
• Strong portfolio demonstrating range across web, campaign, brand, and production design
• B2B SaaS, fintech, or technology company experience nice-to-have

Technical Skills

• Fluency in Figma (primary tool) and Webflow, with comfort preparing assets for web, email, print, and large-format production
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign)
• After Effects, Lottie, and HTML/CSS experience a plus
• Experience with Canva for developing self-serve templates that enable non-designers to create on-brand assets

Mindset & Approach

• A systems-and-template-driven mindset, with a love for creating assets other teams can reuse confidently and at scale
• Data-informed thinking—you understand how creative decisions impact conversion and engagement, while still championing distinctiveness
• A strong eye for detail and consistency, with deep care for craft, clarity, and finish
• The ability to stay calm and focused in fast-moving environments, balancing creative exploration with executional rigor

Project & Time Management

• Strong project management skills—you can prioritize, manage multiple workstreams, and ship on deadline without dedicated creative ops support
• Experience with Asana or similar project management tools a plus

Communication & Collaboration

• Excellent communicator who can articulate design rationale and present work to stakeholders
• Receptive to feedback and able to iterate constructively
• An easy, effective collaboration style across Brand, Product Marketing, Sales, Events, and external vendors

Nice to Have

• Motion graphics skills (After Effects, Lottie) for animated content and web animations
• Video editing skills (Premiere Pro, CapCut, or similar)
• Familiarity with private capital markets or financial services
• Background in both agency and in-house environments

Your work will span digital campaigns to billboards to the swag our customers can't stop talking about. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role for someone who takes pride in shipping quality work—on time, on brand, and at scale.
