About the role

You will be joining a growing, entrepreneurial content undertaking operating inside one of the most powerful financial institutions in the world.
That combination - startup energy, global scale - is rare, and it is deliberate.
It is the thing that makes a complex idea land.

Responsibilities

Design Across the Full Content Spectrum: Lead design across Citi Wealth's full range of content formats - whitepapers, research brochures, one-page At a Glances, client presentations, executive slide decks, social posts, digital editorial, event materials, and more - bringing consistent craft and intention to every format, regardless of scale.
Communication Through Design: Approach every brief first as a communication problem.
Use design - layout, hierarchy, typography, colour, imagery - as a tool for clarity and persuasion, not just aesthetics.
Executive & High-Profile Presentations: Design and art direct senior executive presentations and high-stakes slide decks - understanding that at this level, design carries authority, and every choice reflects the institution.
Identify opportunities to extend, customise, and deepen the application of the brand system, and develop documentation that helps the wider team work within those standards.
Franchise Identity & Visual Language: Contribute to the establishment of visual identities for new content franchises - naming conventions, colour systems, typographic hierarchies, template families, iconography - building identities that are distinctive, scalable, and unmistakably Citi Wealth.
Differentiation by Design: Actively review the competitive landscape - financial media, wealth management peers, luxury brands, editorial design - and develop a rigorous point of view on how Citi Wealth can stand apart visually.
Social & Digital Design: Design social content across platforms with an understanding of format-specific constraints, visual vernaculars, and what stops a scroll - without sacrificing brand integrity for algorithmic expediency.
AI-Powered Design Workflows: Demonstrate deep fluency with modern AI design tools - including generative image and layout tools, AI-assisted typography, automated production workflows, and intelligent design systems - using them to expand creative range, accelerate production, and free up time for higher-order creative thinking.
Motion Graphics (Advantageous): Where motion graphics experience exists, bring it to bear - animating data visualisations, designing kinetic social content, building branded motion templates, and adding dimension to static design systems.

Requirements

A portfolio is required with your application.
Strong proficiency in the Adobe Creative Suite - InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop required
A solid understanding of typographic systems, grid-based layout, colour theory, and information hierarchy - and the ability to apply that understanding across a wide range of format scales.
Other job-related duties may be assigned as required.

Nice to have

Motion graphics experience - After Effects, animation principles, kinetic typography, data visualisation animation - with examples in your portfolio.
Experience designing for financial services, wealth management, or luxury brand audiences.
Experience with data visualisation tools and the design of financial charts, graphs, and infographics.
An understanding of print production workflows, including preparation of files for high-quality physical output.
Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design, Visual Communication, Fine Art, or a related field - or equivalent professional experience.
Every decision - layout, type, colour, image - is in service of a communication goal.
You can articulate why, not just what.
Complexity Made Beautiful: You have the ability to take dense, technical content and make it legible, attractive, and even elegant.
