The Mission

At Zelo, we're redefining SME financing, turning unpaid invoices into instant liquidity so businesses can breathe, grow, and thrive. We’re not just building a fintech product; we’re building a brand that inspires trust, confidence, and ambition. That’s where you come in. We want our design language to be as sharp as our product: modern, bold, and instantly recognizable. Whether it’s a social post, a conference booth, a pitch deck, or a PR campaign, your work will be the visual heartbeat of Zelo.

The Role

We’re looking for a Senior Graphic Designer who’s not just a pixel-pusher, but a visual storyteller and creative strategist. You’ll own the design function end-to-end, working across business, marketing, social media, PR, and comms, ensuring that every piece of content, big or small, speaks “Zelo.”

This isn’t about just following a brand book (though we’ll build one with you). It’s about setting the tone, evolving our identity, and experimenting with design and AI tools to create content that stands out in a sea of fintech sameness.

You’ll work closely with leadership, marketing, and product teams, but you’ll also have the freedom to lead creative initiatives beyond BAU, from innovative campaign ideas to visual concepts for big partnerships and events.

What You’ll Actually Do

  • Own the Zelo brand look and feel across all channels from our website and social media to decks, ads, and event booths.
  • Design with purpose: every post, banner, and visual tells a story and drives action.
  • Collaborate with marketing and PR on campaigns, ensuring visuals and messaging align seamlessly.
  • Leverage the AI stack: from ideation to rapid prototyping and asset creation, you’ll experiment with and master AI-powered design tools.
  • Create scroll-stopping social content: static, animated, short-form video — whatever makes people stop, click, and remember us.
  • Lead creative concepts for events and partnerships: MoU signings, conferences, sponsorships — and make them unmissable.
  • Push boundaries: propose and own design-led initiatives that elevate our brand.
  • Be the design conscience of Zelo: protecting visual integrity while staying fresh and relevant.

Your Toolbox

  • Adobe Creative Suite master: Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects (bonus if you dabble in Premiere Pro).
  • AI Design Tools: Veo3, Higgsfield, Runway ML, Adobe Firefly, or equivalents — and the curiosity to try the next big thing.
  • Familiarity with Figma or similar for collaboration.
  • Motion graphics and short-form video editing skills are a plus.
  • Comfortable designing for both digital and print.

The Human We’re Looking For

  • 2–3 years of professional design experience (agency, in-house, or freelance: we care more about your work than your titles).
  • You think in visuals, not just colors and fonts: you tell stories through design.
  • You’re plugged into trends: both in design and social media marketing.
  • You’re a creative problem solver who thrives in ambiguity and speed.
  • You don’t just deliver what’s asked; you push ideas further.
  • You get a kick out of marketing that works: and know that good design drives it.
  • You can juggle multiple projects without losing your cool (or your deadlines).

Why Zelo? Why Now?

  • We’re not a corporate machine: you’ll have the freedom to experiment, fail fast, and make your mark.
  • Your designs will be seen everywhere: from LinkedIn feeds to major conferences.
  • We’ve nailed product-market fit and are scaling fast: you’ll grow with us.
  • You’ll work alongside a driven, creative team who believes in the mission.

The Interview Process (We Respect Your Time)

  1. Portfolio Review – Send us your best work (we want to see both polish and creativity).
  2. Creative Chat with Marketing Lead – 30 mins to see how you think and approach briefs.
  3. Design Challenge – A 48-hour take-home test (not spec work, just something fun).
  4. Culture Fit with Leadership – Meet the CEO/COO to ensure we vibe.

Total time: ~2–3 hours across 1–2 weeks.
