What you’ll be working on

Our client is looking for someone to join their design team and work shoulder to shoulder with thoughtful and collaborative colleagues to help lead the transformation of their digital products in the private banking space.

  • Set a high standard of UX and UI design, always pushing their design patterns
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams
  • Mentor and grow the skills of junior designers
  • Be a culture builder for collaboration and creativity
  • Present your work across the team as well as to stakeholders

  • A passion for your craft and demonstrating that passion to others, even those outside of the design team.

  • Adaptability. If data, research or a different perspective offers a contradicting position to one you have, you’re comfortable with changing your opinion
  • Prior success building strong relationships across teams. At the core of their digital products is the value of the human experience. Good people and strong relationships will build better products to serve their clients
