Short-Term/Freelance Animator and Graphic Designer
Contract · Remote
We're looking for a graphic designer to help bring the Sling Money brand to life across paid advertising, social media, and in-person events. You'll work closely with our design and marketing team to create clear, compelling visuals that tell the Sling story in a simple, expressive way.
This would be a one-month full-time contract, with potential to extend or move to freelance after that.
This role is hands-on and fast-moving — perfect for someone who loves crafting high-quality visuals, thrives in an iterative environment, and can translate a brand system into a wide range of marketing assets.
What You'll Do
- Create static and motion graphics for paid ads (Meta, Google, YouTube, etc.)
- Design short animations or lightweight motion assets that communicate product value quickly and clearly
- Produce marketing materials for in-person events, including handouts, cards, etc.
- Design graphics and templates for organic social channels
- Collaborate with marketing and design to ensure consistency across all touchpoints
- Adapt existing brand guidelines into new, expressive formats while keeping things simple and clean
- Bring ideas to life from concept to polished final deliverables, often on quick timelines
- Help evolve the visual language of Sling Money as we grow into new markets
What We're Looking For
- 3–5+ years of experience in graphic design, motion design, or visual communication (agency, in-house, or freelance)
- Strong portfolio showcasing eye-catching ads, animation/motion work, and polished marketing design
- Ability to make complex ideas feel simple and easy to understand through visuals
- Excellent visual craft — composition, typography, layout, color, and motion
- Comfortable working independently, taking direction, and iterating quickly
- Experience adapting design systems across a variety of formats and sizes
- Clear communicator who can explain design thinking and rationale
Nice To Have
- Experience with fintech or global consumer brands
- Experience designing for multi-language or international audiences
- Experience with animation, lightweight 3D, or video editing
- Familiarity with paid media best practices (aspect ratios, file specs, ad performance constraints)
About Sling
We aim to create a world where sending and receiving money is effortless. Our app allows users to pay people, not numbers - no IBAN, account numbers, or sort code required. All you need is the recipient's name to send money.
Sling leverages blockchain technology to transfer in any currency almost instantaneously for a negligible fee. We're in 150 countries and the app is available in the Android and iOS app stores. Sling is from Avian Labs, Inc., created by product builders and engineers from Monzo, Square, and Cash App.
Compensation, Perks & Benefits
- Competitive salary
- Opportunity to be a core part of a fast-growing fintech startup
- Collaborative and innovative work environment with autonomy
- Ability to work remotely, hybrid, or come into the London office for free lunch
If you're excited to build products that people love — and design from first principles — we'd love to hear from you.
