Tasks and responsibilities

- Work across a range of digital design experiences - while mostly focused on UX/UI or product-focused briefs, you'll also get stuck into branding, graphic design, pitch decks, animation storyboards and more.

- Lead complex, fixed-term jobs – including client and project management – ensuring timely delivery to our silver-service standard. We don’t have a dedicated account/PM team so being highly organised with exceptional verbal communication is essential.

- Collaborate with designers to create exceptional digital products and websites that exceed client expectations, demonstrating best practices, creativity, and commercial impact.

- Develop and maintain design systems and guidelines that ensure consistency and quality across all our work.

- Work closely with stakeholders to understand business needs, user requirements and technical constraints – and translate them into elegant, intuitive, effective designs.

- Lead design sprints, workshops and presentations that engage clients and explain our process and problem-solving approach.

- Mentor junior and mid-weight designers, offering feedback, support and guidance to help them grow.

- Proactively identify opportunities to improve productivity and processes across the wider team.

Essential skills and experience

- At least 5 years of experience as a UX/UI or Product Designer, with a strong portfolio showcasing your design thinking and process.

- Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite. Bonus points for After Effects, Webflow, Framer or similar.

- Deep understanding of design systems, interaction design, user-centred design and product principles.

- Excellent communication and presentation skills – you can clearly articulate your thinking, rationale and vision to both clients and stakeholders.

- Experience leading projects and collaborating with cross-functional teams.
