  About the Role
  This role is hands-on and varied. You ʼ ll work across websites and digital products,
  collaborating closely with designers, strategists, and developers to create work that is
  clear, scalable, and beautifully executed. We move at pace, care deeply about craft, and take real pride in delivering outstanding work.

  ➔ UI audits and optimisation
  
  ➔ Ongoing UI support through retainers
  
  ➔ Digital products that sit alongside websites
  
  This includes B2B websites, products and intelligent experiences.

  
  

  
  What you ʼ ll bring to the role

  You ʼ re a confident UI designer with a strong visual eye and a practical mindset .

  
  You ʼ re forward-thinking in your approach to design, staying on top of emerging trends,
  tools, and opportunities.
  
  You enjoy using technology to streamline workflows and explore how AI and intelligent experiences can elevate designs, both in how we work and what we create.
  
  You ʼ re genuinely fluent in Figma. You enjoy building thoughtful, componentised design systems using auto layout, variants and styles, and you design in a way that supports smooth design-to-code workflows .
  
  You have experience designing for B2B environments across complex journeys and multiple audiences.
  
  You think beyond static screens. You design interactions, states, and simple motion , and you use
  prototyping to clearly communicate intent and behaviour.

  build in mind and iterating confidently within technical frameworks and CMS
  constraints.
  

  
  

  You work closely with UX designers, and strategists, getting involved early and helping turn ideas, insight, and strategy into clear, usable UI. You like shared thinking, open conversations, and building things together.
  
  Accessibility is part of how you work. You design with WCAG AA standards in mind from the start, creating inclusive interfaces with clear focus states, strong contrast, and accessible layouts.

  development with big ambitions and high standards. We ʼ re always innovating, pushing
