About the role
We're looking for a Digital Product Designer to join our growing team and deliver consistently fantastic UX/UI design work.
Here's some examples of the sort of thing you'd be doing day-to-day:
- Designing beautiful and accessible user interfaces for web and mobile apps
- Drawing up wireframes and user flows, and creating interactive prototypes to test them with target users
- Planning and facilitating client workshops, user interviews and discovery activities to understand how we can best meet user needs
- Collaborating with developers to ensure that designs are implemented to a high standard
- Helping other team members improve their work through mentoring sessions, and by providing constructive, actionable feedback
- Presenting things you've learned back to the team as part of our weekly design team chat
- Refining and adding to our design process documentation, and trying out new design processes with the team where possible
What we're looking for
We hire people who are considerate, enthusiastic, and really care about having a positive impact on the people who use our products.

- Have at least 3 years professional experience designing digital products (ideally within a design agency or startup environment)

- Can clearly and confidently communicate the reasoning behind their work to clients and other team members
- Care deeply about producing designs that have a positive impact on users, and have tons of initiative
- Understand how to implement user-centered design principles in real world situations
We know our team isn't diverse enough at the moment and we're actively trying to change this. No matter who you are, if you think you'd be a good fit for the role we want to hear from you.
