So, who are we?

Hello, we’re IG Group. No, not Instagram – though we're a pretty big deal ourselves. We’re a global, FTSE 250-listed company made up of a collection of progressive fintech brands in the world of online trading and investing. The best part? We’ve snapped up many awards for our top-class platforms, forward-thinking products, and incredible employee experiences.

We believe in financial freedom. And our purpose is to help ambitious people achieve it. Around 400,000 people use our groundbreaking technology and forward-thinking platforms to trade the financial products they know and love.

Did we mention we have offices in 18 countries? Yes, when you join IG Group, you'll have the chance to work across multiple brands, with people all over the world. Join us for an exciting future and let’s

innovate together!

You must be skilled in wire-framing, working with complex CMS systems, UX, UI,web and digital design. (Any knowledge of front-end programming would be a bonus, but not mandatory).

We are becoming a best-in-class marketing team, and need the best talent to keep propelling us forward. Excited? Please get in touch.

Your key responsibilities will include:

  • Create visually compelling, interactive, accessible web page/journey designs that are optimised for the relevant device(s)

With internal and external learning opportunities, and the tools to help you skyrocket to success, we’ll support you all the way.
