Middle-weight UX Designer

Our client is looking for a UX Designer keen to be a part of a fast growing startup alongside an innovative and creative team. As the UX designer you will design user and customer focused interactive journeys, using UX tools and turn these wireframes into pixel-perfect visual designs for all digital channels. You will implement best UX practices supporting user research and evaluating user feedback by iterating user journeys and design work. Collaboration with stakeholders and other departments is key. In terms of the culture, lots of team collaboration & lots of company collaboration. When we’re not all in the creative mode you’ll probably find yourself relaxing in the park with the team or attending funky design events.
 
This exciting role every so often will require you to speak to end-customers in order to gauge a better understanding for the process and the value, which means stepping out of the office. Communication with the development team is also crucial in determining the technical possibilities and solutions whilst working directly with the product team. Creative control across the company as our first permanent UX designer offers great opportunity to lead with innovative ideas and explore new creative solutions.
 
Skills Required

  • At least 2 years proven UX experience on projects.
  • Excellent ability for creating effective layouts, producing pixel-perfect design solutions (apply solid UX & UI usability principles).
  • Excellent communication with project teams and providing constant feedback & advice at every stage of the process.
  • Capability to use tools such as Sketch, Photoshop, Illustrator.
  • End to end UX, personas, user journeys, mock ups, wire-framing and then working with the development/design team to prototype.
Other Skills Required -
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Adeptness with leading design software packages
  • A determination to achieve and succeed
  • Creative industry experience
  • The ability to meet deadlines in a high pressure environment and iterate quickly if needs be
  • A background of working as part of a design team
  • The ability to see projects through from inception to production
  • Consistency regardless of project size
  • Good organisational skills that support the rest of the team
