SumUp • Boulder, CO

1d • $30 - $45 • Onsite

About The Position

SumUp is seeking a part-time, hands-on Graphic Designer to join their US Growth & Marketing team. This role will focus on executing high-volume, high-impact creative for sales collateral and performance marketing, with a strong emphasis on Meta ads and motion graphics. The designer will work in a fast-paced environment, collaborating with marketing stakeholders to bring briefs to life and maintain/evolve templates and systems to improve team efficiency.

Requirements

• 3–5 years of relevant design experience (in-house, agency, or freelance), ideally supporting marketing and/or sales teams
• A portfolio that shows strength in both marketing design and performance creative (ads that feel like they’re built to win, not just look pretty)
• Motion graphics experience (After Effects or equivalent), including social-first animation
• Strong proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign)
• Solid production design skills: speed, precision, file organization, and consistency
• The ability to work from brand guidelines without making everything feel templated
• Clear communication and comfort giving/receiving feedback in a fast-paced environment
• Comfortable with ambiguous briefs that quickly evolve
• Experience managing multiple projects simultaneously while meeting deadlines

Nice To Haves

• Experience designing for acquisition funnels (landing pages, email graphics, lightweight web assets)
• Familiarity with creative testing frameworks for Meta
• Experience in fintech, payments, or SaaS
• Background working with small business or merchant audiences
• Experience managing or contributing to brand social media channels, with an understanding of platform-native content, posting cadence, and community engagement

Responsibilities

• Design on-brand sales collateral, including one-pagers, decks, case studies, and enablement assets
• Produce and iterate performance marketing creative, especially Meta ads (static, carousels, lightweight motion, and short-form video assets)
• Create motion graphics for paid social, including animated text, transitions, and simple product/benefit storytelling
• Adapt concepts into multiple sizes, formats, and versions for testing (fast iteration is the job)
• Collaborate closely with marketing stakeholders (growth, partnerships, sales enablement) to turn briefs into polished creative
• Maintain and evolve templates and lightweight systems that make the team faster (toolkits, reusable ad layouts, slide templates)

Benefits

• A global team with a scrappy, high-ownership culture
• A fast-moving marketing team where your work will ship, not sit in a queue
• Collaboration with stakeholders across growth, sales, and partnerships
• Hands-on exposure across the full scope of a lean, high-output marketing team
