We started a movement in which everyone can win – shoppers, retailers, society and every person on our team.

Our retailers love us because we make paying for products, services and experiences easier for their customers. Our customers love us because Afterpay is easy to use, encourages responsible spending and is completely free when you pay on time. It’s a win-win. Afterpay empowers customers to access the things they want and need by splitting payments in four, for both online and in-store, while our retailers get paid upfront. We help our customers  spend responsibly with low limits that they can afford, with no interest or revolving debt and no account keeping fees. Sounds like a better way to pay, right? We think so.

The Australian Afterpay team is looking for an experienced designer with more creative flair than Jamiroquai’s hat designer. We’re looking for a proactive problem-solver, a natural collaborator, an ideas-fountain that thinks outside of the circle and a designer that can accept that sometimes the logo just has to be bigger.

As a Designer on our creative design team, you will be at the heart of bringing creative ideas to life. You’ll be asked to connect dots, organize thoughts and translate project strategy into great design experiences. You will collaborate with teams across Afterpay to launch creative marketing experiences that guide our mission, business and brand forward.

We focus on creating a brand that is built upon creativity and art, and we strive to look at brand marketing through a non-traditional lens. We work across the latest platforms, covering web and mobile experiences, visual design, experiential installations, photography, video, and animation.

The wider Brand Studio team is made up of accomplished designers, art directors, animators, and copywriters. This role reports to our Australian Creative Director.

Our ideal candidate is excited by the development and iteration of a wide range of creative strategies that consider multiple audiences and multiple channels. Ideally, they geek out equally on design and data, and are eager to optimize towards higher performance. They have a fine-tuned aesthetic and insights on current trends, including an understanding of TikTok which may or may not include some home made dance moves.

We are much more than our job descriptions, but here’s a summary of the role:

• A brand champion that preaches and enforces all aspects of our visual style guide
• Align to brand and design systems to create a cohesive experience across platforms
• Be a motivated collaborator and a creative brainstorming wizard
• Work cross-functionally with marketing managers, designers, copywriters, creative directors, and agencies to align on campaign needs
• Execute polished designs for both existing initiatives and new concepts
• Drive creative ideation and execute based on business objectives
• Willing to get your hands dirty on production jobs if needs-be
• Ability to present ideas and explain creative strategy to relevant stakeholders

Like us, you’ll be deeply committed to delivering positive outcomes for our merchants, customers and are passionate about shaping the future of Afterpay.
