About this Digital Designer role at VirtuHire

VirtuHire · South Africa

Our client in the UK is looking for a versatile designer to join the team permanently. This is a broad role that touches almost every part of the business - customer-facing creative work, production graphics, UI designs for our data visualisation products, and working on developing the design systems that underpin them. It's a role that rewards genuine range: the ability to shift between a brand campaign brief and a stat pack template, between a motion graphics package and a Figma component, without losing quality in the transition. Everyone on the team has real ownership of their work and real impact on the product and the brand - this role is no different.

Responsibilities

  • Customer graphics — campaign assets, social graphics, broadcast-ready visuals, and branded content for football clubs, media companies, and athletes.
  • T3 Studios and video production — graphics packages, motion-ready assets, templates, and visual support for our studios and production team.
  • Stat pack design — our stat packs are used by some of the world's leading broadcasters and rights holders as on-air production tools. Data-rich, visually precise, and built to perform in a broadcast environment.
  • Toolbox template design — our Toolbox platform lets clients generate their own graphics. You'll design templates that sit inside the product, balancing creative quality with the constraints of a data-driven system.
  • Design systems — we have two design systems: one for our stat packs and one for the Toolbox UI. You'll contribute to both by building out components, maintaining consistency, and helping us scale without losing quality.

Requirements

  • Strong proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite — Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects.
  • Proficiency in Figma.
  • Experience designing for multiple output formats — social, digital, and broadcast.
  • Comfortable working across multiple projects and briefs simultaneously without dropping quality.
  • High standards visible in portfolio detail; receptive to feedback and able to iterate.
  • Self-directed — doesn't need to be managed to get things done.
  • Good communicator — can take a brief, ask the right questions, present their thinking.
  • Collaborative across design, product, and production teams.

Strongly Valued (Differentiators)

  • Motion graphics or video production experience.
  • Experience working within or contributing to a design system.
  • Previous work in a creative agency, sports organisation, or media environment.
  • Ability to pick up new tools and workflows quickly.
  • Genuine passion for sport — particularly football.

Platforms & Tools

  • Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects).
  • Figma (UI, prototyping, design systems / components).
  • Motion / video production tooling (After Effects core; bonus for Premiere / Cinema 4D / Lottie exposure).
  • Awareness of broadcast-spec output (frame rates, safe areas, colour profiles, deliverable specs).

Character

  • High standards - you care about the detail and it shows in your work.
  • Good communicator - you can take a brief, ask the right questions, and present your thinking.
  • Efficient - you know when to spend time and when to move fast.
  • Receptive to feedback and able to iterate.
  • Self-directed - you don't need to be managed to get things done.
  • Collaborative - you're comfortable working across design, product, and production teams.

What You'll Get

  • A role with genuine breadth and ownership — no two weeks look the same.
  • Work that reaches real audiences in professional sport and media.
  • A close-knit, high-quality team that cares about doing things well.
