About the role

Own every pixel that leaves the building—quarterly LP reports, data-rich market research, infographics on demand, and the daily stream of graphics that keep our brand sharp.

  • Tempo: Steady-state workflow, punctuated by ~4 major “report sprints” per year; expect long days during peak weeks.
  • Ownership: You’ll be the only designer on payroll—decisions, deadlines, and glory are yours.
  • Stakeholders: Partner directly with Investment, IR, and Marketing teams; must translate dense financial data into visuals a layperson can understand in seconds.


Core Responsibilities

  • LP & Investor Reports: Layout multi-page reports in InDesign/Figma; build data visualizations directly from Excel/PowerPoint feeds. Enforce brand consistency; create reusable component libraries and style sheets to accelerate future cycles.
  • Market-Research Publications: Design graphs, pull-quotes, and infographics that make complex trends obvious. Collaborate with analysts to refine data storytelling before design begins—no endless re-flow later.
  • Digital & Social Graphics: Produce punchy, on-brand visuals for LinkedIn, X, and newsletter headers—often same-day turnaround.
  • Internal Fundraising Support: Polish fund-raise decks and diagrams when partners go on the road.
  • Brand Stewardship: Guard the style guide, build templates, and educate non-designers so you aren’t fixing their text boxes.


Required Qualifications

  • 4–6 years design experience—agency or in-house—serving B2B or financial clients.
  • Portfolio that proves mastery of report design, data visualizations, and social graphics.
  • Expert in Adobe CC, Figma, and PowerPoint; comfortable wrangling raw data in Excel.
  • Proven ability to hit hard deadlines during crunch periods without sacrificing quality.
  • Sharp eye for typography, hierarchy, and whitespace; you sweat alignment details.
  • Communicates with execs who think in basis points, not gradients.


Preferred / “Nice‑to‑Have”

  • Motion graphics skills (After Effects or equivalent).
  • Prior exposure to venture capital or financial storytelling.
  • Experience building and maintaining component libraries or design systems.


What Success Looks Like

  • LPs compliment report clarity; analysts reuse your chart templates.
  • Research infographics get cited by press and reposted on social.
  • No partner calls an external firm for “just a quick graphic.”
  • Quarterly sprints run smoother because you’ve automated half the layout work.


Why Join Us

  • Direct partnership with the CEO on high-visibility initiatives.
  • Competitive compensation, benefits, training budget, and flexible New York office environment.
  • Exposure to cutting-edge startups and a chance to support a world-class brand.
  • Seniority level
