Middleweight UX/UI Designer
Location: Leeds (Hybrid – 3 days per week onsite)
Salary: up to £42,000 (DOE) + discretionary bonus
The opportunity
We’re looking for a Middleweight UX/UI Designer to join the design team within a growing, employee-owned digital agency.
This is a specialist UX/UI role rather than a general digital or graphic design position. You’ll combine strong UX thinking with polished UI design, creating user-centred digital experiences across websites, digital platforms and interactive campaigns.
You’ll take ownership of UX/UI work from discovery and early-stage definition through to user journeys, wireframes, prototypes, high-fidelity interface design, developer handover and quality assurance.
You’ll join a collaborative, values-driven environment with a strong emphasis on quality, ownership and long-term development.
What you’ll be doing
As a UX/UI Designer, you’ll work across a variety of client projects and retainers, collaborating closely with designers, developers, project managers and client teams.
Key responsibilities include:
- Creating customer journeys, user flows, sitemaps and information architecture
- Producing wireframes and interactive prototypes to communicate functionality and user behaviour
- Designing polished, responsive and accessible digital interfaces
- Translating user research, business requirements and technical considerations into intuitive digital experiences
- Contributing to user research, stakeholder interviews, competitor reviews and usability testing
- Building and maintaining scalable design systems, components and reusable patterns in Figma
- Working closely with developers to ensure designs are technically achievable and implemented effectively
- Preparing detailed developer handovers and supporting design QA throughout development
- Presenting concepts and design decisions clearly to internal teams and clients
- Using analytics, user behaviour and research insights to identify opportunities to improve usability, conversion and customer experience
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.
