The Global Society team, as part of the Communications & Strategy Group, is looking for a Visual & Graphic Designer. You are a critical member of a cross-functional and internationally diverse team consisting of communication experts, analysts and marketers, working to enhance Klarna's global narrative, ensuring it is well-known, understood, and trusted among various internal and external stakeholders.(Brand) Designers at Klarna are fundamental players in the strategy, conception and design of beautiful and meaningful ideas and products. Bringing exceptional creative thought, keen eye for detail, immaculate aesthetic taste and well-crafted execution, the designers shape innovative brand experiences and possess broad, versatile and up-to-date knowledge of the most innovative communication and design trends.

The successful candidate will own and ensure the visual and graphic aspect and content of our key strategic communication products across different channels remain best-in-class, demonstrating and enhancing our strategic narrative in the most compelling and captivating way.
