Hybrid Mode
You’ll have a strong passion for the user-centred design process, leading user research and discovery, working with business requirements and helping to define new product and feature solutions. You will be the voice of design expertise through the facilitation of workshops and user interviews, to concept sketching, wireframing, prototyping and testing your solutions.
Working closely with product owners and development teams, you will be an advocate for the user at all times and ensure that everything we do is client-centred.

· Build prototypes to communicate journey flow and interaction details that can also be used to test and validate with end-users
· Feel equally comfortable sketching and wireframing a design solution as when making UI and data visualisations beautiful and compelling
