Brand Architect and Design Lead [MBK Global]

About MBK Global

MBK Global is a Qatar-headquartered technology and transformation platform operating at the intersection of energy, advanced engineering, and Industry 4.0.

We are not a single-product company.

We are an ecosystem orchestrator.

Through a growing portfolio of ventures and joint initiatives — spanning AI, digital twins, additive manufacturing, automation, advanced analytics, and intelligent platforms — we connect global technology leaders with regional energy and industrial players to deliver transformation that is practical, enterprise-grade, and trusted.

Our ambition is long-term: to build credible, enduring technology ventures that operate to the standards expected by the energy sector — while remaining globally competitive and future-ready.

Why MBK Global

The world needs more energy to power progress.

More energy to build cities, run industries, and support growing populations. At the same time, energy must be delivered more cleanly, more efficiently, and more responsibly.

In the age of artificial intelligence, this challenge has intensified.

AI, data centres, high-performance compute, and digital infrastructure are creating a new class of energy demand — one that must be met with resilience, intelligence, and speed. Energy systems are no longer just powering economies; they are powering the digital civilisation itself.

MBK Global exists to help make that possible.

We work with energy and industrial companies to deploy Industry 4.0 technologies — not as abstract innovation, but as practical tools that enhance real operations, in the real world.

Our mission is clear:

to help energy companies deliver more energy, for more people and technologies, with greater efficiency and resilience — to power progress in the digital age.

The Opportunity

We are appointing a Brand Architect & Design Lead as a permanent, foundational role within MBK Global.

You will be architecting how MBK Global and its ventures are understood, trusted, and remembered.

This is a senior, high-ownership role for a designer who wants to shape the identity, narrative, and visual language of a multi-venture technology platform — with long-term impact.

The Design Challenge

MBK Global operates in a uniquely demanding environment:

• We are a technology platform serving energy and industrial enterprises
• Our propositions are complex, yet must be clear to senior decision-makers
• Our brand must feel confidently modern while remaining grounded, credible, and enterprise-grade
• We operate across multiple ventures and partnerships that must feel coherent over time
  
  
  

Your role is to resolve this through clarity, structure, and design leadership.

Role Overview

As Brand Architect & Design Lead, you will own:

• MBK Globals brand architecture, narrative, and positioning
• The visual identity system across MBK Global and its ventures
• The quality and consistency of all brand artefacts and touchpoints
• The design culture across the organisation
  
  
  

This is a long-term stewardship role, not a one-off branding exercise.

Experience

What Were Looking For

• Experience in B2B, enterprise, technology, industrial, or energy-adjacent environments
• Experience working across multi-entity or platform organisations
  
  
  

Skills

• Exceptional visual judgement and structural thinking
• Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop; After Effects a plus)
• High-end PowerPoint or Keynote capability
• Figma or equivalent tools
  
  
  

Mindset

• Pride in craft, consistency, and quality
• Comfortable in founder-led, high-expectation environments
• Culturally aware and able to design for Qatar and the wider GCC

Why This Role Is Special

• You will shape the visual and cultural DNA of a platform designed to last decades
• Your work will be seen by CEOs, boards, and global technology leaders
• You will help define what credible, enterprise-grade technology looks like in the AI era
• This is not agency work — this is ownership
  
  
  

If you care deeply about clarity, craft, and purpose — and want your work to contribute to something larger than a product or campaign — this role will feel personal.
