About the Role

We’re looking for a talented and thoughtful UX Designer to join our growing team. This role will play a key part in shaping the early stages of our digital projects, from research, strategy and wireframing to structure, flow, and experience design.

You’ll work closely with strategists, designers, and developers to define clear, user-led experiences for our digital products. You’ll bring structure to ideas, clarity to complexity, and ensure our clients’ digital platforms excel when it comes to customer experience.

This is a middleweight-level role with space to grow. You’ll be expected to take ownership of UX design on a range of projects, but with the support of a collaborative, experienced team.

What You’ll Do

• Lead UX design on digital projects, from discovery through to delivery
• Collaborate with strategy, design and development to define IA, user flows, and wireframes
• Translate brand positioning and commercial needs into intuitive site structures
• Participate in discovery sessions, stakeholder interviews and research analysis
• Produce clear, annotated wireframes, lo-fi prototypes, and supporting documentation
• Champion accessibility, clarity and best practice throughout the user journey
• Play a role in content definition and SEO
• Work with developers to ensure UX intentions are carried through to build
• Contribute to refining our UX process and tooling as we grow

What We’re Looking For

• 3+ years of UX design experience, ideally in a creative or digital agency environment
• Strong portfolio showcasing user flows, wireframes and IA, not just visual design
• Comfortable working across a mix of discovery, structure, and prototyping
• Able to confidently communicate and explain your thinking to both internal teams and clients
• Experience using Figma
• Awareness of content design, accessibility and SEO as part of UX thinking
• Proactive mindset, great communicator, and someone who works well in a hybrid team
• Experience in hospitality, lifestyle or consumer brand work is a bonus but not essential

A Culture Add, Not a Culture Fit

Our Shoreditch studio is blessed with a mighty talented team of curious thinkers and driven creators. Diverse in thought, skill and life experience, we're united in the belief that questioning, challenging and debating just about everything is the only way to create work that moves things forward.

So, we are actively looking for characters with a fresh perspective and a different opinion to make us better at what we do.
