At Grade, we're building better workplaces by helping people find the right jobs and helping companies hire and grow smarter. As a fast-growing HR tech company with deep roots across the Nordics, we’re on a mission to build a strong, unified brand—and we’re looking for a creative powerhouse to lead that charge.

We’re not looking for someone to just “make things pretty.” We need a strategic design partner—someone with vision, craft, and the ambition to push boundaries.

What you’ll do

As our sole in-house visual designer, you will:

• Own, evolve, and enforce the visual identity of all Grade brands, balancing creativity with consistency.

• Be the brand champion—ensuring every design aligns with our guidelines and upholds a coherent, recognizable look and feel across channels.

• Design a wide variety of materials, including:

  • Social media assets, digital ads, and web visuals

  • Sales decks, pitch presentations, and internal communications

  • Event materials, trade show booths, and employer branding

  • Campaigns and marketing collateral

  • Web design (WordPress & Elementor)

• Collaborate closely with marketing managers to turn ideas and strategies into compelling visual assets.

• Bring a critical eye to the table—don’t just follow briefs; refine, challenge, and elevate them.

• Act as “brand police” when needed—confidently guiding others toward design consistency and brand integrity.

• Leverage AI-powered tools to boost efficiency, experiment, and scale creative output.

What we’re looking for

• 5+ years of experience and a strong portfolio of branding and marketing design.
• A hybrid mindset—you value classic design principles but embrace new formats, tools, and platforms.
• Proficiency with Figma, Canva, WordPress (Elementor), Adobe Creative Suite, and comfort with both digital and print.
• Fluency in AI-based design tools (image/video generation) and the ability to prompt effectively in line with our brand voice.
• Ability to juggle multiple projects with speed and precision—no bottlenecks here.

Grade is undergoing an exciting transformation—from a house of brands to a cohesive master brand. You’ll be the creative lead behind that evolution. This is your chance to build a recognizable, standout visual identity that ties everything together.

You’ll love this role if you...

• Want end-to-end creative ownership
• Crave variety and impact
• Believe in brand as a business driver
• Think design is about strategy as much as aesthetics
