About this opportunity
We're looking for an experienced User Experience Designer to join our team in Edinburgh. This is a unique opportunity to define and enhance the journeys in which we engage and build relationships with our business customers, while supporting them with the right products, tools and services to meet their needs.
We're looking for someone who can work collaboratively alongside a full design team and take full ownership of their design output. They will be confident when presenting their work to stakeholders, and able to adapt designs to reflect their feedback and feedback from user research and usability testing.
As a UX Designer it'll be your role to:
- Skillfully craft the end-to-end user experience, bringing together a cohesive journey step by step, creatively using components from a central design system to figure out the right balance of content and UI (User Interface) elements on screen
- Bring designs to life with a choice of prototyping software, such as Sketch / InVision / Figma / Axure / Adobe XD
- Balance business requirements with user needs - you'll be gathering user research and rationale to align stakeholders on individual user needs. You'll know when to diplomatically push back, if necessary, to act on what's right for the customer
- Be adaptable to the technical constraints of different platforms yet still be able to give guidance on creating the best possible end user experience
- Advocate customer inclusion - what it means to make an inclusive and accessible design to be used by customers of a wide range of ages, backgrounds and technical abilities
