About Maika Global

Maika Global is a female-founded growth agency for founders and category creators. We blend strategy, design, research, and RevOps to help visionary brands scale smarter, from market validation and GTM to brand, demand, PR, and decks that raise capital.

With a global presence in London, New York, San Francisco, and Dubai, our team combines bold creative direction with data-driven strategy to help businesses look world-class and grow faster. We've scaled brands across AI, Cybersecurity, Fintech, Logistics, and Renewables (to name a few), always focusing on work that moves the needle.

The Role

We're seeking a Creative Designer / Motion Graphics Specialist who can bring brands to life through bold visual storytelling. This is not a "make it look pretty" role, it's a creative leadership opportunity for someone who understands how design drives growth, brand perception, and trust.

You'll concept and execute brand identities, campaigns, and motion content that capture attention and communicate complex ideas with simplicity and impact. From logo systems and brand color palettes to social animations, pitch decks, and videos, you'll be responsible for crafting visuals that look incredible and
perform
.

You'll collaborate with strategists, copywriters, and marketing leads across global clients, working at the intersection of design, marketing, and business strategy.

What You'll Do

• Lead brand design projects,
  from concept to execution, including logos, color systems, and full visual identity packages.
• Design and animate creative assets
  for digital channels: social carousels, ads, reels, decks, and short-form video content.
• Collaborate with video editors
  to integrate graphic and motion design across campaigns, ensuring visual consistency from concept to final cut.
• Develop design systems
  that can scale across channels and clients while keeping the creative distinct and high-impact.
• Interpret briefs strategically,
  understanding the "why" behind the work and producing design that communicates it clearly.
• Stay ahead of design trends
  across motion, typography, and AI-powered creative workflows, bringing fresh inspiration to the team.
• Own the creative process
  from ideation through delivery, managing feedback, revisions, and execution across multiple client projects.

What You Bring

• 3–5+ years of experience in brand and motion design (agency or in-house).
• Strong portfolio demonstrating expertise in brand identity, graphic design, and animation.
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, Premiere Pro); Figma or Blender is a plus.
• Ability to concept, storyboard, design, and animate in both 2D and simple 3D formats.
• Strong understanding of color theory, typography, and visual hierarchy.
• Experience designing for cross-platform digital campaigns — from LinkedIn to TikTok.
• High attention to detail and the ability to balance multiple priorities with speed and accuracy.
• Strategic mindset — you design for impact, not just aesthetics.
• Collaborative energy and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, global team.

What We Offer

• A remote-first culture with flexible hours (core availability 10am–4pm UK / 8am–2pm EST).
• The opportunity to work with founders and global brands across industries from AI to Fintech.
• Fast growth environment — you'll shape the future of a rapidly expanding agency.
• Paid professional development opportunities.
• A supportive, creative, and growth-oriented team culture.

You'll Thrive Here If You

• Are as comfortable designing a brand identity as you are animating a motion graphic.
• Love the balance of creative freedom and strategic purpose.
• Want to grow with a company that's scaling fast and values your ideas.
• Believe that design should be both beautiful and measurable.
