SumUp

<div>Part-Time Contract Designer (Marketing) &mdash; Boulder, CO
SumUp is a global financial technology company that helps businesses of all sizes accept payments and manage their business both in-store and online. We support millions of merchants globally across dozens of markets, and we&rsquo;re building a world where everyone can build a thriving business.
We&rsquo;re looking for a part-time, hands-on designer to join our US Growth &amp; Marketing team. You&rsquo;ll be executing high-volume, high-impact creative across sales collateral and performance marketing, with a strong emphasis on Meta ads and motion.
Location: Boulder, CO (preferred in-office)
Type: Part-time (hourly)
Who you are
You&rsquo;re a mid-level designer who can move quickly, take direction well, and also push work forward independently when the ask is a little fuzzy. You have strong fundamentals (layout, typography, brand consistency), a sharp eye for ad creative that performs, and you can bring designs to life with motion graphics. You&rsquo;re familiar with using AI platforms such as Nano Banana and VEO 3.1 to be your thought partner when appropriate.
What you&rsquo;ll do
<ul><li> Design on-brand sales collateral, including one-pagers, decks, case studies, and enablement assets</li></ul>
<ul><li> Produce and iterate performance marketing creative, especially Meta ads (static, carousels, lightweight motion, and short-form video assets)</li></ul>
<ul><li> Create motion graphics for paid social, including animated text, transitions, and simple product/benefit storytelling</li></ul>
<ul><li> Adapt concepts into multiple sizes, formats, and versions for testing (fast iteration is the job)</li></ul>
<ul><li> Collaborate closely with marketing stakeholders (growth, partnerships, sales enablement) to turn briefs into polished creative</li></ul>
<ul><li> Maintain and evolve templates and lightweight systems that make the team faster (toolkits, reusable ad layouts, slide templates)</li></ul>
You&rsquo;ll be great for this role if you have
<ul><li> 3&ndash;5 years of relevant design experience (in-house, agency, or freelance), ideally supporting marketing and/or sales teams</li></ul>
<ul><li> A portfolio that shows strength in both marketing design and performance creative (ads that feel like they&rsquo;re built to win, not just look pretty)</li></ul>
<ul><li> Motion graphics experience (After Effects or equivalent), including social-first animation</li></ul>
<ul><li> Strong proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign)</li></ul>
<ul><li> Solid production design skills: speed, precision, file organization, and consistency</li></ul>
<ul><li> The ability to work from brand guidelines without making everything feel templated</li></ul>
<ul><li> Clear communication and comfort giving/receiving feedback in a fast-paced environment</li></ul>
<ul><li> Comfortable with ambiguous briefs that quickly evolve</li></ul>
<ul><li> Experience manage multiple projects simultaneously while meeting deadlines</li></ul>
Nice to have
<ul><li> Experience designing for acquisition funnels (landing pages, email graphics, lightweight web assets)</li></ul>
<ul><li> Familiarity with creative testing frameworks for Meta</li></ul>
<ul><li> Experience in fintech, payments, or SaaS</li></ul>
<ul><li> Background working with small business or merchant audiences</li></ul>
<ul><li> Experience managing or contributing to brand social media channels, with an understanding of platform-native content, posting cadence, and community engagement</li></ul>
Benefits
<ul><li> A global team with a scrappy, high-ownership culture</li></ul>
<ul><li> A fast-moving marketing team where your work will ship, not sit in a queue</li></ul>
<ul><li> Collaboration with stakeholders across growth, sales, and partnerships</li></ul>
<ul><li> You'll work closely with and report to the US Senior Designer, getting hands-on exposure across the full scope of a lean, high-output marketing team</li></ul>
Compensation
Hourly pay range: $30&ndash;$45/hour (based on experience), not to exceed 15 hours/week
