This is a hybrid role working from home and our offices in either our London or Leicester.
You will play a key role in expanding our UI development, working closely with the product design team to deliver high-quality, user-centric digital experiences. As we evolve the mobile app from MVP to a more feature-rich and optimised version, you’ll help steer its future design direction—identifying opportunities to enhance functionality, usability, and engagement. A key part of your role will be conceptualising and designing animations and transitions that enrich user flows and bring ideas to life in meaningful, delightful ways. You’ll collaborate with our development partner to ensure these concepts are implemented effectively, while aligning with internal stakeholders to maintain consistency with our evolving design standards. You’ll also be at the forefront of innovation by leveraging AI tools and methodologies to streamline design processes and create more personalised user experiences.
In addition to these responsibilities, you’ll be involved in creating assets, developing design concepts, prototyping, and producing high-fidelity visuals specifically for our website. You’ll help maintain and evolve our design patterns and component libraries to ensure consistency and scalability across platforms. Strong communication skills are essential, as you’ll need to clearly articulate your design rationale to stakeholders across the business and produce detailed handover documentation to support seamless collaboration with developers.
