The Team You’ll Work With

It’s an exciting time at Carta -we’re building the world’s first ERP for private capital. Purpose-built software that transforms workflows and communication between finance leaders in startups, venture capital, private equity and limited partnerships, throughout a private fund lifecycle.

It’s also an exciting time for the  Brand and Creative team, as we’re under new leadership with big ambitions to accelerate the business and manifest our challenger brand spirit with smart, cut-through creativity.

We’re also a cool place to work, with great people, a collegial culture, and competitive benefits.

The Problems You’ll Solve

At Carta, our employees set out on a mission to build the unified platform for the private market economy. We believe that the problems we solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. As an Art Director on the Brand Team,  you’ll work to:

  • Partner with our Brand and Creative team to uplevel Carta’s creative output — translating open-ended briefs into visually arresting, culture-cutting  work that stands out in the “sea of sameness” that is modern corporate finance.
  • Investigate complex subject matter, designed for niche audience subsets — and synthesize business goals into exciting creative directions that are culturally sharp, audience-resonant, and convey product value clearly.
  • Drive and challenge the creative process, championing experimentation and risk-taking, in order to bring fresh energy to an old industry that is (frankly) overdue for reinvention.
  • Lead by example, using out-of-the-box thinking and tireless creative review to push our design practice into new conceptual territory with each campaign we run.
  • Act as both a hands-on designer and an inspiring pillar of the team, proactively pushing our work and raising the bar for what’s possible. You’ll be a key driver of the conceptual thinking and challenger brand ideology that defines our visual identity in the years to come.
  • Lead and contribute directly to the design of key assets—from slide decks to campaigns, branded content, events, digital experiences, and more—with a confident command of layout, typography, color, and brand guideline principles.
  • Champion a culture of curiosity and learning,  actively pursuing insights into trends—both inside and out of our industry—and sharing them with our internal teams to help foster differentiated creative thinking.
  • Develop and uphold Carta’s creative standards for clarity, succinctness, and style across all of our various visual comms.
  • Be proactive in reaching out to build collaborative relationships across our varied teams, from Product to Events and Social.
  • Reporting to our UK based Creative Lead you will join our global Brand and Creative design team, working across time zones with colleagues in Europe, the US and beyond.

About You

  • You have 7-plus years experience at a creative agency or creative studio client-side, creating cut-through work for known brands (some B2B experience preferred) across media.
  • You are adept at using Figma, Adobe CC, and are comfortable working with a range of platforms and design tools. You have proven experience creating production ready assets for both print, and screen. Motion experience and a working knowledge of After Effects a plus.
  • You’re a conceptual, big-idea thinker, a dazzling ad designer, AND a brand systems perfectionist.
  • You have an opinion on the use of AI in creative work, are up to date with current tools, and are excited about the potential for AI to supercharge in-house teams.
  • You’re unfazed by complexity, endlessly curious, and love to turn highly complicated briefs into effortless, engaging visual stories.
  • You have a portfolio that demonstrates all of the above.
  • You’re a proactive “doer” and take the initiative to hunt for the information you need in order to deliver.
  • You can passionately and persuasively articulate your ideas to peers and senior executives.
  • You’re a natural team player. You listen deeply. Participate keenly. And you’re unafraid to speak up.
  • You’re passionate about creative, marketing and finding innovative ways for brands to engage.
  • You can thrive in a self-starting, small and highly distributed team.
  • You want to chase awards, but you want them to drive the business.
  • You live in and around London and can work 2-3 days in the office.
  • Your ideas are big. Your ego is not.

At Carta, you’re not just an employee. You’re a builder who is creating  infrastructure that accelerates innovation and empowers more ownership. Cartans are helpful, relentless, unconventional and kind; representing Carta’s Identity Traits. They work collaboratively and cross functionally  to challenge the status quo; working towards a common goal of creating more owners in the private markets.
