Mission

We’re on a mission to help more people thrive in tech — becoming the central place for software makers to build great careers and for companies to build winning teams.

Within the Marketing team at OfferZen, our focus is to grow and engage our community of developers and companies through valuable content, events, reports, tools, and campaigns.

Design plays a key role in this — it’s how our brand shows up in the world, how we stay distinct in a market that often looks the same, and how we move from ideas to impact at pace.

As a Marketing Graphic Designer, your mission is to bring our brand to life across the full funnel while helping us scale how we design and deliver — through high-quality creative, reusable systems, and well-executed brand touchpoints like swag and events.

About the role

This role is focused on strong execution with room to grow. *Please note: This is a 12-month contract role that requires occasional visit to our Cape Town office. 

You’ll work closely with the marketing team and alongside a design lead, taking ideas and turning them into clear, high-quality visual outputs across campaigns, content, and brand touchpoints.

A key part of the role is not just delivering assets, but helping us move from one-off design work toward a more scalable system — through templates, reusable assets, and consistent visual patterns.

You’ll also play an important role in bringing the brand to life beyond digital — owning how swag is designed, produced, and delivered across campaigns and events, and helping build simple, reliable systems that ensure quality, consistency, and readiness at scale.

Outcomes

• We consistently ship high-quality, on-brand creative across campaigns, content, and community
• Design is no longer a bottleneck for marketing delivery
• We are building a growing library of reusable assets (templates, illustrations, components)
• The OfferZen brand feels consistent, distinct, and recognisable across all touchpoints
• The team is empowered with templates and tools to self-serve where appropriate
• OfferZen Swag is high-quality, on-brand, and event-ready at all times, supported by efficient systems for inventory, ordering, and cost control

Responsibilities

Design and deliver high-quality visual assets across a range of marketing needs:

• Ad creatives for paid campaigns
• Campaign collateral (banners, landing visuals, email assets)
• Blog, report, and social media creatives
• Sales and internal enablement materials
• Event and community assets
• Swag (t-shirts, stickers, print materials, etc.)

Contribute to improving how we design over time:

• Create and maintain templates to reduce from-scratch work
• Support the development of our illustration and asset library (e.g. dinocorn system)
• Apply and maintain consistency across all outputs
• Iterate on feedback and continuously improve the quality and impact of designs

Own the swag system:

• Manage swag ordering end-to-end (quotes, suppliers, approvals, timelines)
• Maintain accurate swag inventory and run regular stock takes with help of our office manager
• Ensure swag is shipped on time events, campaigns, and candidate placements with the help of our office manager
• Ensure all events are fully prepared with the right swag, in the right quantities, on time
• Identify opportunities to simplify and standardise the swag system (cost effective options, reusable designs, better processes)

What will make you a good fit

We’re looking for someone with strong design fundamentals who wants to grow into a more senior designer or marketer over time.

Core requirements:

• 2-3 years experience in graphic design
• A strong portfolio that demonstrates layout, typography, illustration and visual clarity
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign)
• Capable illustrator, able to generate on brand assets
• Comfortable designing across multiple formats (digital and print)
• Super organised, proactive and detail-orientated 

Nice to have:

• Experience designing for marketing or brand 
• Exposure to templates or design system
• Familiarity with Figma or similar tools
• Ability to animate / create motion graphics
• Basic knowledge of AI implementation in design workflows

How you work

• You care about clarity and craft, not just aesthetics
• You’re comfortable working from briefs and iterating on feedback
• You have strong attention to detail and take pride in polished output
• You’re proactive and look for ways to improve how things are done
• You’re curious and invested in growing your skills over time
