About The Role
Head of Design – a visionary, hands‑on leader who will own the entire design process across Bumper, from brand identity and visual storytelling to user experience and production design. Reporting directly to the Chief Strategy Officer, you will manage a small but high‑performing design team (two designers) and collaborate closely with marketing, product, and engineering to ensure our brand and digital experiences are beautiful, consistent and impactful. This is a full‑time hybrid role, with three days a week based in either our Sheffield or London office. Key Responsibilities
Own the visual and brand identity, including logo, typography, colour systems, and creative assets. Oversee the creation of marketing and communication materials: digital ads, social graphics, presentations and campaign visuals. Develop and refine UX/UI for digital products, ensuring a seamless and intuitive customer experience. Contribute to the creation of engaging multimedia content, including video, animation and motion graphics. Evolve the company’s visual identity and ensure its application consistently across product, marketing and internal communications. Partner with marketing to produce high‑quality video, social and campaign assets that reflect the brand’s tone and style. Champion design quality across the organisation, embedding a culture that values creativity, experimentation and innovation. Own end‑to‑end product design, from initial concepts through final implementation. Conduct and oversee user research, usability testing and feedback analysis to understand pain points and inform design improvements. Work closely with product managers and engineers to define roadmaps and ship user‑friendly, accessible and visually consistent experiences. Establish and track design quality metrics, gathering user feedback and analytics to continuously iterate and improve product experience. Lead, mentor and develop a team of two designers across brand, product and content design. Define and implement the design vision, ensuring a consistent and elevated brand identity across all touchpoints. Build scalable design processes, standards and systems to ensure consistency and quality. Collaborate with cross‑functional stakeholders (marketing, product, tech and leadership) to align design strategy with business goals. Now a Bit About You
