Product Designer - Permanent Role

Key Responsibilities: Product Design & User Experience • Lead end-to end design for complex products, systems, user journeys, and operational workflows. • Translate business goals, user insights, and product requirements into scalable,intuitive, and user-centric product experiences. • Create advanced user flows, wireframes, mock-ups, prototypes, interaction models, and high-fidelity UI designs. • Design user-centric interfaces with accessibility, usability, consistency, and responsiveness in mind. • Apply human-centred design principles to ensure product experiences are practical,intuitive, and fit-for-purpose. • Translate wireframes and mock-ups into high-fidelity screens that can be clearly understood and implemented by engineering teams. User Research & Design Validation • Conduct and drive user research, usability studies, and design validation activities. • Gather,analyse, and synthesise user feedback to identify pain points, behavioural patterns, and improvement opportunities. • Facilitate usability testing sessions with users to validate design decisions and refine product experiences. • Use research findings and user insights to recommend design improvements and influence product direction. • Advocate for evidence-based design decisions rather than assumptions or preferences. Design Systems & UX Standards • Drive consistency across products through scalable design systems, reusable components, UX standards, and UI guidelines. • Contribute to the development, maintenance, and improvement of design systems and design documentation. • Ensure design outputs are aligned with accessibility, responsiveness, and usability best practices. • Promote consistency in interaction patterns, visual design, and user experience across product teams. • Review and provide guidance on design quality, usability, and implementation accuracy. Cross-Functional Collaboration • Collaborate closely with Product Managers, Business Analysts, engineers, and stakeholders to shape product direction and delivery priorities. • Work with teams to define user journeys, product requirements, UI/UX requirements,and design acceptance considerations. • Facilitate design workshops, stakeholder discussions, ideation sessions, and user journey mapping activities. • Communicate design rationale, trade-offs, and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. • Balance business objectives, technical feasibility, operational constraints, and user experience considerations. Agile Delivery & Implementation Support • Work within Agile development cycles and integrate UX work into sprint and release planning. • Support backlog refinement, sprint planning, design reviews, and implementation clarification where required. • Work closely with development teams to ensure accurate implementation of approved designs. • Provide design specifications, interaction behaviours, assets, and implementation guidance to engineering teams. • Review implemented features and provide feedback to ensure alignment with intended user experience and design quality. Mentoring & Design Capability Development • Mentor junior designers and provide guidance on design thinking, UX practices, UI quality, prototyping, and stakeholder engagement. • Contribute to design capability development through sharing of templates, standards,practices, and lessons learnt. • Advocate for user-centric thinking and accessibility best practices across teams. • Support continuous improvement of design practices, processes, and ways of working. • Promote a culture of collaboration, curiosity, experimentation, and design excellence. Requirement: • Degree in Interactive Design Engineering, Digital Media, Computer Science,Human-Computer Interaction, Design, or a related discipline. • Alternatively,extensive professional experience with demonstrated impact and relevant expertise may be considered in lieu of formal academic qualifications. • Minimum 5 years of relevant experience in UI/UX design, product design, interaction design, front-end engineering for digital products, or related roles. • Strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end product design work for digital products,including research, user journeys, wireframes, prototypes, interaction design,high-fidelity UI, and delivered outcomes. • Proficiency in design and prototyping tools such as Figma, Adobe XD, Sketch, or equivalent. • Experience conducting user research, usability testing, and gathering design feedback. • Strong understanding of user-centred design, interaction design, accessibility,usability, and responsive design principles. • Able to translate user needs, business goals, and technical constraints into practical and scalable product design solutions. • Proficient in UI design and familiar with front-end libraries or frameworks such as React,Tailwind, or equivalent. • Familiar with integrating UX work into Agile development processes. • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively with Product Managers, Business Analysts, engineers, and stakeholders. • Strong communication and visualisation skills, with the ability to explain design decisions, trade-offs, and recommendations clearly. • Ability to guide junior designers and contribute to design standards, systems, and capability development.
