Ken Garff Automotive Group is hiring: Brand Designer in West Valley City

Brand Designer

Arivo is a fintech company on a mission to change how auto lending works - and how people experience credit. We build software that's thoughtful, products that are human, and a culture that believes great design isn't just a function of aesthetics; it's a function of trust. The way we show up visually is a direct reflection of who we are and what we stand for, and it enables us to lend for good. This is a brand-new role at Arivo, which means it comes with both a blank canvas and real responsibility. We're looking for a Brand & Visual Designer who's ready to build something from the ground(ish) up, shape how Arivo is seen by the world, and champion the power of brand from the inside out.

Brand at a growing company is rarely a straight line. One day you're refining a color palette; the next you're presenting a campaign to the executive team or building out a style guide that the whole company will live by. This role demands someone who thrives in that kind of environment; someone with a strong design foundation, a sharp strategic instinct, and the conviction to advocate loudly (and graciously) for why brand matters. You'll own Arivo's visual identity in a meaningful way: developing it, protecting it, scaling it, and making sure it resonates just as strongly inside the company as it does out in the world.

Own and evolve Arivo's visual brand identity; developing and maintaining brand guidelines, style guides, and design systems that keep our look and feel consistent and intentional across every touchpoint.

Concept and execute a wide range of design projects, including brand collateral, digital and print marketing materials, email templates, campaign assets, and more.

Lead internal brand alignment efforts; creating campaigns, materials, and resources that help every department understand who Arivo is and how to represent us consistently.

Collaborate cross-functionally with servicing, operations, dealer services, originations, product, and leadership teams to ensure design work accurately reflects Arivo's voice, values, and strategic direction.

Present work to stakeholders and executives with confidence and clarity - walking through your process, defending your decisions, and translating design thinking into language that resonates across the business.

Stay ahead of design trends, emerging tools, and industry shifts - bringing fresh thinking to the table while keeping Arivo's brand rooted and recognizable.

Iterate thoughtfully on feedback, approaching revisions as part of the craft rather than a detour from it.

Bring a high standard of quality and accuracy to everything that ships; from the details no one notices to the moments everyone does.

Participate actively in team meetings, contributing your perspective on design direction, brand decisions, and creative challenges across the organization.

We take culture seriously. We believe the best work comes from teams that trust each other, communicate openly, and care about the impact of what they build. This is a rare opportunity to define a brand, not just maintain one. You'll have the autonomy to shape how Arivo looks, sounds, and feels - and the support of a team that genuinely believes design is central to how we build trust with our customers.

We offer a range of benefits to make your life better, including:

• 2 days of WFH every week
• A modern staffed cafe that serves fresh meals, snacks, and drinks daily
• Quiet rooms for when you need to bunker down for a deep work session
• A friendly team that cares about you and your success
• Health, vision, hearing, and life insurance
• Generous PTO policy that makes taking time off easy & accessible

If this sounds like a good fit for you and your career, apply today! We look forward to hearing from you.
