  • Working closely with the Business Design Director, you will be responsible for redesigning the entire experience across the board for a key financial services client.

  • User-Centric Design: Combine your hands-on expertise in UX/UI craft with a deep understanding of user needs and behaviour as well as UI/Visual Craft. Drive the creation of intuitive and elegant design solutions that resonate with our diverse user base.
  • Design Strategy: Collaborate with cross-functional teams including product managers, engineers, and stakeholders to define design strategies that align with business objectives. Translate business goals into compelling design concepts and user experiences.
