Working Student – Brand & Visual Design

As our Working Student – Brand & Visual Design, you will look after the Apheris brand day to day: keeping our templates and assets consistent, producing the visuals our commercial and scientific teams need, and improving how we present complex science to a technical audience.

This is a hands-on role for someone with a sharp eye for B2B design who can work quickly without letting quality slip. Briefs will not always be complete, and priorities shift as we grow, so you will often shape the brief as much as execute it.

The work moves quickly and you will usually have several requests running at once. We value pragmatism: knowing when a piece needs further polishing and when a good version delivered today is the right call.

What you will do

Brand system and templates

• Maintain and extend our master templates (PowerPoint, one-pagers, Word documents) so every team works from the same, up-to-date standard
• Keep our asset library (icons, graphics, imagery) organized, current and easy to use
• Check outgoing materials for brand consistency and fix issues before they reach customers

External materials

• Design and refine pitch decks, product one-pagers and fact sheets for our sales and partnerships teams
• Create and update website graphics and page visuals in Webflow
• Produce social visuals for LinkedIn and event materials for conferences, such as brochures, posters, roll ups, banners.
• Create short videos and motion graphics for social, the website and product demos

Internal communication

• Create visuals for internal presentations, all-hands and company updates
• Help turn scientific and technical content into clear diagrams and explainer graphics
• Test and document AI-assisted design workflows the wider team can reuse

What we expect from you

• Enrolled in a bachelor's or master's programme in Communication Design, Media Design, Visual Communication, Marketing or a related field
• A portfolio from your studies, personal projects or freelance work that includes B2B, editorial or information design, not only illustration or consumer branding
• A trained eye for typography, spacing, grids and visual hierarchy
• Confident with professional design tools such as Figma, Adobe Creative Cloud or Canva, and curious about AI design tools such as Claude Design

• Examples of event or print design (e.g. brochures, posters, roll-ups, banners) are a plus
• Video editing or motion design skills (e.g. After Effects, Premiere Pro) are a big plus
• Organised and reliable with deadlines and feedback rounds; you ask questions early when a brief is unclear
• Clear written and spoken communication in English; German is a plus
• Interest in science, life sciences or AI; no scientific background required

What we offer you
