London

Our take: The real work here is shaping and guarding Monzo's visual brand hands-on in Figma while leading and mentoring a small design team across campaigns, motion, and product.

If you light up when a brand gets sharper under your hands, this is a chance to shape the hot coral identity of Monzo while staying deep in Figma yourself. You will lead a small team, run honest critiques, and guard the brand across campaigns, motion, and product, all for a mission to make money work for everyone. It rewards people who care about typography and craft but can also carry a room full of stakeholders without losing the idea.
