About the Role
We are looking for an experienced, hands-on Lead UX/UI Designer to cover a 6-month period of maternity leave. You will own the design of complex, multi-stakeholder products end to end, working closely with engineering and product teams. You will be comfortable making confident design decisions, shipping in short cycles, and iterating based on feedback. You will also lead and support junior designers in the team.
Responsibilities
- Own complex projects end to end, taking full design accountability from discovery through wireframes, prototypes, and final UI specification.
- Design and produce interactive prototypes in Sketch to test flows, validate concepts, and align stakeholders.
- Run and facilitate workshops across teams and features to drive strategic alignment.
- Maintain and evolve the design system, extending the component library and design standards for consistency, accessibility, and reusability.
- Support junior designers by setting direction, reviewing work, running critique sessions, and aiding their development.
- Partner with product managers to shape requirements and with developers to ensure faithful and technically feasible design implementation.
- Deliver at pace by prioritizing, breaking down problems into shippable increments, and maintaining momentum across parallel workstreams.
- Uphold accessibility and quality, ensuring designs meet WCAG 2.2 AA standards and internal quality bars before handover.
Requirements
- Proven track record as a lead UX/UI designer with a portfolio demonstrating ownership of complex, large-scale digital products.
- Advanced working knowledge of Sketch, including symbols, libraries, and shared styles.
- Strong prototyping ability to move from concept to testable interactive prototype quickly.
- Demonstrable experience mentoring or line-managing junior designers.
- Confident collaboration with product managers, engineers, business stakeholders, and clients.
- Evidence of delivering high-quality work at pace in an agile environment.
- Excellent communication skills to explain and defend design decisions to non-designers.
- Right to work in the UK (visa sponsorship is not offered for this role).
