You’ll lead end to end design for our platform to assess the existing experience against best-practice UX standards. You'll run research with internal users, and build a prioritised backlog of opportunities in partnership with Product. Your expertise will also be key in engaging business stakeholders and bringing them along the journey, building alignment and buy-in as the design evolves, including designing AI-native, working directly in tools like Claude to move fast from concept to high-fidelity output.
In this collaborative environment, you’ll work alongside Product and Engineering to tackle problems and strategically prioritise design activities and research. You’ll stand as a champion for our customers, translating research findings into compelling narratives and sharing them with diverse audiences through detailed reports and persuasive presentations. As the sole dedicated designer on this initiative, you’ll also connect your work back to the broader design practice, contributing to our shared design system, patterns and accessibility standards. You’ll have the opportunity to influence and shape the strategic vision, translating it into clear, achievable milestones, partnering closely with Product and Engineering to turn ambitious design direction into shipped outcomes.
