Who We Are
Accenture Song is the creative, design, and tech-powered heart of Accenture — a collective born from over 40 world-renowned studios and agencies. We marry world-class creativity with deep technology, harnessing insight, imagination and innovation to shape the future of brands, businesses and customer experiences.
What We’re Looking For
We’re on the lookout for a top‑of‑their‑game Product Designer who doesn’t just fit into the team, but genuinely raises the bar. You’ll be a hands-on craft specialist and a strategic design thinker who elevates the work around you, managing teams and clients alike.
We’re looking for designers who are strong on creative/UI craft, not purely UX or research‑led.
- 7–10 years of professional experience
- 5+ years in digital product design
- Participation in the full product design lifecycle
- You’re already operating at a high level and are ready to contribute immediately, rather than still developing core creative skills
What You’ll Bring
Design Craft & Creativity
- Strong UI craft and visual polish, including fluency in Figma and Adobe CC – this is really important to us
- Confidence in creative decision‑making, with clear reasoning behind:
- Typography choices
- Colour palettes
- Icons, illustrations and graphical elements
- Ability to show beautiful, well‑considered prototypes and polished outputs
- Experience with motion design or animation is a big plus
- A clear sense of art direction and brand‑led thinking, not just following existing styles
- Understanding of AI and emerging technology
- Strong understanding of accessibility and inclusive design
- Expertise in design system creation, maintenance and management
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
