What you'll do

  • Own end-to-end design across assigned customer and colleague-facing journeys, working independently with strategic input from the Design Manager rather than day-to-day oversight

  • Are comfortable owning design from problem framing through to delivery, working autonomously without needing day-to-day oversight

  • Are confident using Figma to a high standard, including Auto Layout, Components and Design Systems
  • Communicate and defend design decisions clearly, with evidence and product thinking, to a range of different audiences
  • Have a strong understanding of accessibility standards and apply them as a default
