Graphic Designer (Remote)

Description
Graphic Designer

Group Marketing | Visual Design & Brand Production

Reports To: Group Head of Marketing

Direct Reports: N/A

Location: Remote (Global)

Type: Full-time

About the Group
The j.awan& partners group operates across three complementary entities: j.awan& partners, a GCC-founded with global reach regulatory and compliance advisory firm; azakaw, a purpose-built RegTech compliance platform automating KYC, KYB, AML screening, transaction monitoring, and corporate compliance; and j.awancapital, a KSA‑focused regulatory and compliance advisory firm combining compliance advisory with fund hosting and administration. Together, the group serves financial services institutions, fintechs, fund managers, and professional services firms navigating complex regulatory environments across the GCC, Africa, and international markets. Marketing operates as a unified group function delivering coordinated demand generation, brand positioning, and pipeline support across all three entities.

Culture and Values

Growth mindset, resilience, accountability, and adaptability in a fast‑paced scaling environment.

Professional maturity and integrity in handling sensitive client and regulatory information.

Client‑first philosophy: every interaction reflects the accuracy, proactivity, and integrity of the group’s advisory heritage.

Trust and credibility built through consistent follow‑through, transparency, and candid communication.

Mission
A production‑grade design role for a B2B designer who combines visual craft with output discipline across three brand identities simultaneously. You are the sole designer for a lean marketing team producing social assets, paid ad creatives, pitch decks, event collateral, landing pages, reports, sales enablement materials, and light video and animation content.

The ideal candidate works fast, interprets briefs accurately, and maintains brand consistency without requiring constant art direction. They are not waiting for creative freedom. They are delivering commercially effective design on brief, on brand, and on time. They understand the visual language of compliance, RegTech, and financial services: precise, professional, and authoritative without being sterile.

You are AI fluent in a practical, production‑relevant sense. You use AI image and video generation tools as part of your standard workflow to accelerate asset production, explore creative directions, and adapt static assets to motion. You apply craft judgment and brand precision to everything that reaches the market, whether it originated in your hands or in a model.

12–18 Month Mission Outcomes
Production Output : All briefed assets delivered on time. No missed internal deadlines without prior escalation. Average turnaround meets SLA by asset type.

Brand Consistency : All published assets across all three entities pass brand review without requiring major revision. Brand guidelines applied consistently and independently. No off‑brand material reaches external audiences. Landing page and website designs delivered to spec for development handoff.

Paid Creative Performance : Ad creative CTR tracked monthly. Underperforming creatives flagged and refreshed proactively. Minimum one creative variant live per active paid campaign at all times.

Sales and Pitch Collateral : Pitch decks, one‑pagers, and battle card layouts produced to BD satisfaction and on time. No deal delayed for lack of designed collateral.

Event Collateral : All event materials delivered at print‑ready quality at least two weeks before event date. Zero missed event collateral deadlines.

Design System Maintenance : Brand asset libraries current and maintained in Figma for all three entities. Approved templates accessible to the full team. No brand files lost or outdated in active use.

AI‑Assisted and Motion Production : AI image and video generation tools integrated into the standard production workflow within 60 days of joining. Light animations and short‑form video content produced to brief and to production standard.

Brief Process Adherence : All work initiated from a written brief. Feedback cycles completed within agreed rounds. Scope creep escalated, not silently absorbed.

Light Animation and Video
Produce light animations and short‑form video content for LinkedIn, paid campaigns, and sales enablement. Adapt static assets to motion format. Use AI image and video generation tools to accelerate production where appropriate. Apply post‑production quality control to all AI‑assisted visual outputs.

Motion and video assets produced on brief and on schedule. AI‑assisted outputs reviewed and approved before publication.

THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR YOU IF…

You need significant creative latitude to produce your best work. This role is brief‑driven and brand‑constrained across three distinct identities.

You prioritise aesthetics over commercial function. Every asset here must work in the market.

You are not comfortable with high output volumes across multiple brand identities simultaneously.

You treat revision rounds as a creative affront. Feedback cycles are part of the professional standard here.

You are not yet using AI image and video generation tools in your production workflow. AI fluency is a baseline requirement, not a bonus.

You are not self‑managing. Briefs are written but the team does not have capacity to track your delivery.
