As a Senior Product Designer, you will take a leading role in shaping digital products, experiences and
the practices behind them.
You will take ownership of the design process, working from user needs and business challenges
through concepts, interactions and high-quality visual execution. You are a hands-on designer who can
navigate complex challenges, facilitate collaboration and advise clients on how to improve their design
practices.
With a particular focus on Process Design, Design Systems, DesignOps and Accessibility, you will help

- Creating digital products and interfaces. Develop high-quality visual and interaction design,

- Designing processes and ways of working. Map workflows, identify challenges and develop
practical processes that improve collaboration, decision-making and delivery.

models, and help organisations implement and adopt them.
- Advancing DesignOps and Accessibility. Help clients establish effective design practices,
accessibility standards and processes that support consistent, inclusive digital experiences.
- Facilitating and advising. Lead workshops, collaborate with stakeholders and translate complex
needs into clear design directions and practical solutions.
- Exploring AI in design. Use AI-assisted tools and automation in your own work, experiment with
new workflows and help clients identify opportunities to improve their design processes.

the development of our Experience Design team.
