Job description
We're looking for a Senior Graphic Designer who combines strong visual craft with AI-powered speed — someone who can turn complex financial concepts into scroll-stopping creative for Japan's retail investor market.
This is a hands-on execution role. You'll own the day-to-day design output for ThreeTrader's Japan-facing campaigns, working closely with Growth, Marketing, and Content teams to deliver high-quality assets across digital, social, and in-app channels. You move fast, iterate often, and know how to make financial services feel both trustworthy and engaging.
Key Responsibilities
Design Execution
• Design high-performing marketing assets including paid social ads, display banners, landing pages, email templates, and app store creatives for the Japanese market
• Translate complex trading and financial concepts into clear, visually compelling content for retail investors
• Use AI-powered design tools (e.g. Adobe Firefly, Midjourney, Runway) to accelerate creative production while maintaining brand quality
Brand & Standards
• Apply and maintain ThreeTrader's visual identity guidelines consistently across all touchpoints
• Build and maintain reusable templates and design components to improve team efficiency
• Ensure all creative output meets compliance and regulatory requirements for financial services marketing in Japan
Performance & Localisation
• Partner with Growth and Performance Marketing teams to produce creative variants for A/B testing
• Adapt global campaign assets for the Japanese market with cultural sensitivity and local nuance
• Review creative performance data and apply learnings to future design iterations
Collaboration
• Work cross-functionally with Marketing, Product, CX, and Content teams to ensure visual consistency across the customer journey
• Manage multiple design projects simultaneously in an agile, deadline-driven environment
Experience & Skills
• 5+ years of professional graphic design experience, with a strong portfolio demonstrating digital marketing and campaign creative
• Proven experience in FinTech, financial services, or a regulated industry — understanding of compliance constraints in marketing materials is essential
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects) and Figma
• Hands-on experience with AI-powered design tools such as Adobe Firefly, Midjourney, or Runway
• Experience designing for performance marketing channels — paid social, display, email, and landing pages
• Familiarity with A/B testing workflows and the ability to translate performance data into design decisions
Market & Language
• Native-level or JLPT N1 Japanese proficiency — you'll be designing for and communicating directly with the Japanese retail investor market
• Strong understanding of Japanese visual culture, design sensibilities, and consumer expectations in financial services
Soft Skills
• Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced environment
• Strong attention to detail and a high bar for design quality
• Collaborative and communicative — comfortable working cross-functionally with non-design stakeholders
• Self-directed and adaptable, with a bias toward action
Nice to Have
• Experience with motion graphics or short-form video creative
• Familiarity with app store asset design (iOS / Google Play)
• Previous experience in a startup or agile team environment
• Competitive salary and performance-based bonus
• Opportunity to own and shape creative direction in a high-growth market
• A collaborative, international team culture with flat hierarchy
• Modern office in Taichung with flexible working arrangements
• Professional development budget and access to industry tools and resources
• The chance to be part of a pivotal growth phase in the Asia-Pacific FinTech space
