Mid-Level Digital Designer (6 Month FTC)

About Security Blue Team:

With over 150k students across the globe, SBT's certifications are setting the bar for defensive cybersecurity training. We're trusted by hundreds of organisations—including military, government, law enforcement, CERTs, and MSSPs—to train their teams. As a leading cybersecurity training company, we are dedicated to cultivating a new generation of experts and bridging the gap between skill development and industry demands.

About the role:

We're looking for a versatile digital designer who can jump into active platform work and support our design team through an exciting period of development. This is a hands-on, mid-level role ideal for someone who’s confident in Figma, comfortable navigating complex interfaces, and happy to collaborate across disciplines when needed.

You’ll work closely with our senior designers in a highly collaborative team that partners with every department in the company. While your primary focus will be assisting with UI/UX and product design, you’ll also contribute to wider visual design tasks that keep our creative output cohesive and high-quality. 

We don't expect you to be an expert in everything - we are a team and you'll have the opportunity to play to your strengths while developing new skills along the way.

This is a 6-month fixed-term contract with the possibility of continuing in a permanent role, subject to business needs.

Whilst this is a remote role, we ask that candidates are UK based, with their right to work in UK.

What you’ll work on

• Design intuitive interfaces, components, and user flows for our web platforms and applications
• Translate requirements, UX considerations, and technical constraints into clear, effective UI solutions
• Contribute to wireframes, prototypes, design systems, and documentation in Figma
•  Participate in creative ideation, problem-solving, and cross-team discussions
• Occasionally you might be asked to support the broader design pipeline with tasks such as:
  • Visuals for social media, events, and educational products
  •  Graphic assets across digital and print
  • Light branding work for new or evolving products

What you’ll definitely need

• A strong portfolio showcasing your best work, particularly UI/UX (applications without portfolios won’t be considered)
• 2–3+ years in a relevant design role
• Excellent command of Figma (components, auto-layout, prototyping, design systems)
• Solid understanding of UX principles, user-centred thinking, and clean, scalable UI design
• Proficiency with relevant Adobe CC products
• Strong attention to detail
• A proactive, collaborative mindset and a willingness to support varied design tasks
• A desire to learn and make a difference

Nice to have

• Branding experience
• Illustration skills (raster/vector, non-AI)
• Motion graphics, animation, or 3D
• An interest in cybersecurity (even if you're new to it!)

What we offer:

• £40,000–£45,000 annual salary (pro-rata) depending on experience + up to 10% annual performance-based bonus
•  Remote working with flexible hours
• 25 days of annual leave pro-rata (plus local bank holidays, Christmas closure, and your birthday off)
• Pension contributions
• Growth opportunities
• Optional access to our central London office
• A unique company culture with in-person and virtual socials
