Senior UI/UX Designer (Product & Brand) at Vellmont Advisory Ltd

About the Role

1. NestVest is a fast-growing Nairobi property platform covering residential rentals, resales and new real-estate project promotions. We are looking for a Senior UI/UX Designer who can take ownership of both digital product design and brand/visual design. You will design high-converting property platform interfaces and produce the marketing visuals that drive our listings, campaigns and brand across all channels.
2. This is a full-stack design role — we need someone who thinks like a product person and can also roll up their sleeves in front-end basics.

Key Responsibilities

1. Product / UI-UX Design
   • Design and iterate on the NestVest platform (web & mobile): property search, listing pages, lead flows, dashboards, admin tools.
   • Produce user flows, wireframes, prototypes and design systems in Figma.
   • Own the design-to-development handoff and ensure pixel-accurate implementation.
2. Brand & Graphic Design
   • Create e-commerce, brand identity, packaging and marketing visuals (campaigns, listings, social creatives).
   • Maintain brand consistency across all customer-facing touchpoints.
3. Product Thinking
   • Understand the basic product-development flow (discovery → design → build → test → iterate).
   • Proactively identify UX problems, propose solutions and coordinate with product & engineering.
4. Front-End Basics
   • Ability to implement basic style changes directly in HTML & CSS (minor UI fixes without waiting for engineering).

Requirements

1. Rich UI/UX portfolio across B2C, B2B and multiple industries — real variety that proves breadth of experience (include links to live projects).
2. Graphic design portfolio: e-commerce, brand design, packaging and related visual work — we care about aesthetic quality.
3. Product mindset: familiarity with the end-to-end product development process and a problem-solving approach to issues.
4. Front-end mindset: hands-on HTML & CSS to make basic style adjustments yourself.
5. 3+ years of relevant design experience preferred.
6. Fluent English; strong communication and collaboration skills.
7. Able to commute to Kilimani, Nairobi.
