We are looking for an experienced Senior Interaction Designer to join a digital consultancy delivering complex, user-centred services across UK Central Government and the wider public sector.
This is a role for an Interaction Designer with real depth in their discipline - someone who can look beyond individual screens and understand how users move through an end-to-end service.
You'll work across discovery, alpha, and delivery, translating complex user, business, and technical requirements into clear, accessible, and intuitive digital experiences. Working within multidisciplinary teams, you'll collaborate closely with User Researchers, Content Designers, Service Designers, Developers, and client stakeholders to create solutions that are desirable, feasible, and effective.
What you'll be doing
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
