Job description

Work & Co, part of Accenture Song, is a global design and technology company with offices in the United States, Europe, and Latin America. We're known for uniting the industry’s best hands‑on strategy, product and technical talent to generate tangible impact at scale. Client partners include IKEA, Apple, PGA TOUR, Gatorade, Google, Mercedes, Givenchy, the MTA and more. As Fast Company noted, our engineering and design teams are routinely entrusted with creating digital products for companies which rarely approach outside firms. Forrester Research calls our approach “a model to follow.” Visit work.co to learn more.

Designers who thrive at Work & Co see no boundary between form and function. They are highly strategic, detail‑oriented, and multi‑skilled, bringing a deep understanding across visual design, user experience, user interface design, branding and even coding.

Creating digital products requires intense collaboration — internally, and with our clients. We believe in prototyping early and often. Our focus is on the end‑user, conducting multiple rounds of testing to validate our concepts.

One big difference? Our partners are hands‑on and you’ll work directly with them. There’s no middle management here. You’ll also work closely with Product Managers, Strategists, and Developers to create original digital products and services that reignite industries and reshape companies.

What You Will Do

• Stay 100% focused on making great digital products--that’s all we care about
• Work iteratively and collaborate with the team on initial concepts, user flows, visual design, and prototypes
• Attention to detail and care for design execution, from concept through delivery
• Participate in all project phases, from strategy to launch to optimization

Basic Qualifications:

• Portfolio or samples of work demonstrating digital product design

Preferred Qualifications:

• Ability and desire to solve complex product design problems and the strategy skills to deliver best‑in‑class solutions
• Impeccable execution and care for all aspects of design, from conceptual thinking to motion and visual design
• Demonstrated ability to synthesize and present findings, and articulate design rationale
• Experience working in a highly iterative, collaborative environment where people share work daily
• Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills
• Familiarity with prototyping tools
