Profile match
Houst is a London property management company founded in 2015 that runs short-let listings on behalf of homeowners. Its technology handles pricing, calendar synchronisation across booking sites, guest messaging and housekeeping logistics. The company operates in cities across Europe, North America and Australasia.
Backed by 500 Global

We’re looking for a hands-on Marketing Designer to shape and execute Houst’s visual identity across high-impact paid digital media, physical out-of-home (OOH) campaigns, and branded marketing collateral.

This role is tailored for a junior-to-mid-level graphic designer who has strong core design instincts, loves seeing their work live in the real world and across digital feeds, and is excited to learn fast by testing, iterating, and experimenting.

You’ll work within our existing brand system while actively expanding it - producing visually compelling, high-converting creative across digital and print channels.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Paid Digital Ad Creative: Design high-volume, scroll-stopping creative variations (static banners, carousels, responsive display, and animated social hooks) for performance campaigns across Meta, Google, LinkedIn, TikTok and partner networks.
  • OOH & Large-Format Print: Design print-ready collateral for out-of-home campaigns - including billboards, transit ads, street furniture, event booths, flyposting, and localised marketing materials, taking designs from initial concepts through to final print production specs.
  • Creative Testing & Experimentation: Partner closely with the growth marketing team to A/B test visual hooks, typographic treatments, colour palettes, and layouts to see what visual angles drive the lowest acquisition costs.
  • Sales & Franchise Partner Collateral: Create high-polish, brand-aligned sales enablement materials - including pitch decks, partner one-pagers, property owner guides, and digital brochures.
  • Brand Evolution & Asset Management: Maintain and elevate Houst’s visual design system in Figma. Build scalable component libraries, templates, and style guidelines that enable internal teams to produce consistent collateral quickly.

Requirements

  • Practical Graphic Design Experience: 1-3 years of hands-on design experience within an agency, fast-paced startup, or consumer brand, backed by a strong portfolio.
  • Digital & Print Production Fundamentals: A solid grasp of typography, layout, colour theory, and composition, with practical knowledge of both digital pixel ratios and print production requirements (bleeds, resolution, CMYK/spot colour, and large-format legibility).
  • Tool Proficiency: Advanced working knowledge of Canva, Figma or the Adobe Creative Cloud suite (specifically Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign).
  • Experimental Mindset: A fast-learning, iterative attitude. You’re excited to put work into the market, look at performance data, learn what resonated, and immediately spin up the next iteration.
  • Eye for Copy & Concept: Understanding how visual hierarchy and short-form copy work in tandem to convey a clear message within two seconds.
  • Execution & Detail: Exceptional attention to detail-from catching typos and alignment errors to ensuring proper asset formatting and export settings.

Nice to Have

  • Motion Graphics & Video: Basic motion design or video editing skills (After Effects, Premiere, or CapCut) to animate static assets for short-form video ads.
  • Email Design: Familiarity with designing modular templates for email platforms like Klaviyo or Mailchimp.
  • Sector Interest: An interest in proptech, short-term rentals, travel, or hospitality.
