Job description

Overview

We’re hiring a Lead-level UX and Product Designer on behalf of a digital studio that’s been creating creative, impactful experiences for over two decades. You’ll be joining a team of technologists, creatives and thinkers who believe great design should be both delightful and technically sound. This is a chance to work on meaningful products and services with clients across the charity, education, culture and heritage, and public sectors.

What you’ll be doing

As Lead Product Designer, you’ll guide projects from the first conversation through to final delivery. You’ll lead discovery phases, run workshops, and shape product direction through research and insight. You’ll collaborate with clients, stakeholders and teammates to balance creativity, usability and technical feasibility. You’ll design user journeys, wireframes and prototypes, and help build scalable design systems. You’ll get hands-on with tools like Figma and Miro, and work closely with developers and strategists in agile environments. You’ll also mentor others, contribute to pitches, and help define how design connects to business goals and user outcomes.

This role is ideal for someone who’s curious, collaborative and confident in their craft — someone who enjoys solving complex problems and shaping ethical, human-centred digital experiences.

What experience you’ll need to apply

• Strong experience in UX and product design.
• Skilled in user research, insight synthesis and stakeholder alignment.
• Comfortable leading workshops and co-design sessions.
• Competent in UI design and design systems.
• Familiarity with agile and lean ways of working.
• Ability to translate complex ideas into intuitive user journeys.
• Experience mentoring others and supporting design best practice.
• Bonus: experience in charity, health or gaming sectors.

What you’ll get in return for your experience

This role offers a competitive, annually benchmarked salary, flexible hybrid working, and a generous benefits package. You’ll receive private health insurance, a discretionary annual bonus, and 21 days holiday. In addition, they offer a personal development budget, subsidised personal training, weekly yoga, and an annual company holiday.
