Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
Synthesia sits in a modern SaaS category where product experience is inseparable from content creation, in this case AI generated video used inside large organisations. A junior digital designer role in a solutions focused creative team is notable because it operates at the boundary between a scalable platform and the real constraints of enterprise brand systems, adoption, and repeatable outputs.
For a SaaS career, this kind of work builds a practical understanding of how subscription products deliver value beyond the core UI. Designing templates that many customers can reuse sharpens skills in modular systems, consistency, and iteration, all of which translate well across SaaS environments where teams optimise for reuse and measurable outcomes. The collaboration implied with customer facing roles also develops fluency in turning requirements into artefacts that support retention and expansion.
This role will suit early career designers who prefer hands on production paired with structured feedback loops, and who are comfortable refining work based on stakeholder input. It is a strong match for someone interested in motion and brand application, and in learning how design choices scale when the “end user” is often an internal team at an enterprise customer.

Synthesia is the world’s leading AI video platform for business, used by over 90% of the Fortune 100. Founded in 2017, the company is headquartered in London, with offices and teams across Europe and the US.
As AI continues to shape the way we live and work, Synthesia develops products to enhance visual communication and enterprise skill development, helping people work better and stay at the center of successful organizations.

About the role
We’re looking for a talented and motivated Junior Designer to join our Solution Creative Design Team. Our mission is to empower everyone to create video content without cameras, microphones, or studios. In this role, you’ll help design and deliver high-quality video templates that enable some of the world’s largest companies to scale their storytelling.
This is a hands-on design role where you’ll contribute to real customer-facing work while building your skills alongside an experienced team. You’ll gain exposure to enterprise design challenges and play a part in shaping how customers experience Synthesia. Imagine joining Airbnb, Stripe, or Figma when they had product-market fit, but the world hadn’t completely realised it yet. That’s where Synthesia is today. We hire the smartest, kindest, and most unrelenting people and let them do their best work—without distractions. You’ll join a supportive design team where your growth is mapped clearly - from Junior to Senior Designer and beyond, and you’ll have the opportunity to create impactful video templates and videos leveraged by global enterprises.
What You’ll Do
Support the design and delivery of video templates and video content for our highly valued customers, working from concept through to final output under the guidance of our Creative Design Team in Solutions.
Translate customer brand guidelines into visually engaging templates that are easy to use and on-brand.
Collaborate closely with customer success managers and design peers to ensure solutions meet customer needs.
Apply feedback and iterate quickly, balancing creativity with attention to detail.
Stay curious about design trends in motion, branding, and typography, and bring fresh inspiration to the team.
Contribute ideas for improving design processes and outputs as you grow in the role.
What We’re Looking For..
Have 1–2 years of professional design experience (agency, in-house, or freelance).
Can showcase a portfolio with strong examples of motion, branding, and template design.
Comfortable working in Figma, Photoshop, and Illustrator, with growing confidence in design fundamentals.
Familiarity with motion tools (After Effects or Premiere Pro); we’ll support you to deepen these skills as part of your growth.
Are detail-oriented, organised, and confident working on multiple projects at once.
Communicate clearly and are open to feedback, iteration, and learning from more experienced team members.
Motivated to grow into a mid-level designer over the next few years.
