Relay is a digital banking platform that gives self-made business owners the tools and know-how to be great with money—bringing clarity, confidence, and control to every dollar earned, so they can turn hard work into lasting success. We do this by replacing financial guesswork with real visibility, transforming cash flow from a constant source of stress into a clear signal owners can use to run stronger, more resilient businesses.
We’re looking for a Brand Designer to join Relay’s Marketing Design team and help shape how our brand comes to life across campaigns and customer touchpoints. This is a mid-level role for a conceptually strong, hands-on designer who can independently own projects from brief to delivery. Someone who pairs strong visual craft with storytelling, sound judgment, and reliable project ownership.
You’ll work closely with brand designers, copywriters, marketers, and cross-functional partners to create high-quality work across digital, lifecycle, web, social, campaign, event, and sales touchpoints. You’ll contribute to creative direction, present and explain your thinking, manage projects with confidence, and help the team scale through reusable templates, documentation, and growing expertise in a design specialty.
Brand Designers at Relay turn strategy, customer insight, and complex financial ideas into work that feels clear, distinctive, and human. In a category that can feel cold or interchangeable, your work helps business owners feel understood and helps Relay earn trust. By bringing strong ideas, owning work from concept to delivery, and creating repeatable resources, you help raise the creative bar while enabling the wider team to move faster.

You push relentlessly for reinvention: You're always asking "how can this be better?" -- in your work, in your craft, in yourself. Comfort is a signal to push harder, not coast. You'd rather build something better than defend something familiar.
You crave autonomy: We trust our team with big challenges and the freedom to solve them. If you’re someone who takes initiative, is comfortable taking risks, and seeks input when needed, you’ll find the freedom here empowering.
You own your work: You take pride in your work, follow through on commitments, and feel a deep sense of responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks.
You build with AI, not just use it: You're actively embedding AI into how you work, pushing what's possible, and bringing your team along with you.
You care about impact, not noise: You care deeply about the substance of your work. You measure success by results, not recognition, and you let your work speak for itself.
You’re energized by complexity and ambiguity: You enjoy tackling problems that don’t come with a playbook. You’re comfortable building from scratch, iterating as you go, and collaborating to shape the best path forward.
You seek out feedback: You see directness as respect, not criticism. You actively seek input, sit with hard truths, and use feedback as fuel for improvement.
Small businesses are why we're here: Relay exists to help them thrive -- and that mission has to resonate with you.
We're looking for people who are relentless, curious, and care deeply about the work. You're encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't perfectly match the job description -- your perspective and drive matter more. We welcome diverse backgrounds and people who think critically, challenge the status quo, and want to help small businesses thrive.
If you require accommodations at any stage of the hiring process, please reach out to your Talent Partner.
