Visual Designer (AI & 2D Design) – Part-Time (NXJ-216)

Role overview A part-time Visual Designer creates polished artwork for story-driven projects, including environments, backgrounds, props, illustrations, and campaign imagery. The work combines traditional 2D image-making with AI-generated material and manual editing, in close collaboration with design, production, and animation colleagues. The designer helps each asset fit the project's visual language and work across larger scenes or platforms.

Responsibilities - Create and extend 2D environments, backgrounds, props, illustrations, and other visual assets. - Combine sketches, generated imagery, and hands-on editing to produce finished artwork. - Refine composition, lighting, colour, and detail to meet a defined creative direction. - Keep assets visually consistent with each project's established style and suitable for use across platforms. - Share work in progress, collect feedback at key stages, and apply it to final deliverables. - Coordinate with designers, animators, and the producer so visuals support the intended storytelling.

Requirements - Strong 2D design and image-making skills, including composition, lighting, colour, and typography. - Experience with Adobe Creative Suite, especially Photoshop and Illustrator. - Practical experience with AI image-generation tools and the ability to write prompts that guide them toward a specific look. - Ability to think in three-dimensional space when designing coherent environments and props. - Excellent spoken and written English. - Independence, attention to detail, ownership, proactive communication, and a collaborative approach in a fast-paced creative setting.

Nice to have - Background in games, animation, or a similar visual-production environment. - Experience with After Effects.

Benefits and work setup - Starts as part-time work with flexible hours agreed with the team, and may grow into a full-time role. - The designer has ownership of assignments and can contribute ideas to the final artwork.
