Job description

Precision is an integrated strategy and communications firm advising companies and organizations at the intersection of policy, reputation, and public opinion. The firm combines senior bipartisan political and communications talent with proprietary data and AI platforms to develop and run integrated campaigns that help clients seize opportunities and solve their biggest challenges. Precision’s integrated model spans strategic communications, corporate advisory, public affairs, reputation management, crisis and litigation support, data and analytics, paid media, and creative. The firm is backed by a bipartisan, 50-State Network following its acquisition of Firehouse Strategies. ABRY Partners is a strategic investor in Precision.

Position Overview

Precision is seeking a UX/UI Designer who combines strong visual craft with a thoughtful understanding of how people read, navigate, and use websites. You’ll help turn complex subjects into clear, engaging digital experiences, shaping everything from page structure and user journeys to typography and interaction.

Our creative team works closely with communications, paid media, research, data, and account teams to build integrated campaigns. The work often sits at the intersection of technology, people, government, law, and politics. We’re looking for someone who is curious about those subjects and cares about what a page communicates as much as how it looks.

You should be comfortable working in Figma, developing designs in response to feedback, and explaining the decisions behind your work. You’ll read the copy carefully, flag what doesn’t make sense, and use hierarchy and reading flow to make the message easier to understand.

The position can be based in either Washington, D.C. or New York, NY.

What You’ll Do

• Design website experiences from early user flows and wireframes through polished layouts, prototypes, and developer handoff.
• Use typography, hierarchy, spacing, and navigation to help people understand information and find what they need.
• Work closely with creative leads, copywriters, and account teams to understand the audience, message, and purpose behind each project.
• Engage with the content you’re designing: identify confusing language, flag gaps, and make thoughtful decisions about emphasis, grouping, and sequence.
• Build and maintain organized Figma files, reusable components, and responsive designs.
• Apply accessibility and usability principles throughout the design process.
• Collaborate with developers and review implementation to help ensure the finished experience reflects the design intent.
• Present your work internally, explain your rationale, and incorporate feedback with care.
• Manage your assignments and deadlines, communicate progress, and raise questions or obstacles early.

What We’re Looking For

• 2+ years of UX/UI design experience.
• A portfolio demonstrating strong website design, thoughtful user experiences, and a clear command of typography, layout, and visual hierarchy.
• Proficiency in Figma, including components, responsive layouts, and prototyping.
• An understanding of how content and design work together to guide attention and comprehension.
• Careful reading and sound editorial judgment: you notice when something doesn’t make sense and can explain why.
• Familiarity with responsive design, accessibility, and developer handoff.
• Curiosity about the world beyond design and a willingness to learn about complex or unfamiliar subjects.
• A collaborative approach, attention to detail, and the ability to work across multiple assignments.
• A bachelor’s degree, ideally in a creative field, is preferred but not required.

What We Offer

• Competitive salaries
• Annual bonus opportunity
• Flexible hybrid remote/in office plan
• Retirement plan with automatic 3% safe-harbor contribution from Precision
• Healthcare coverage - medical, dental and vision with 90% of costs covered by Precision
• Paid vacation, sick leave, and floating holidays
• Paid parental leave
• Professional development stipend

The annual salary range for this position is $62,000.00 to $84,999.00. Actual compensation and starting salaries are determined by various factors, including the candidate's education, experience, knowledge, skills, and internal equity. Once at Precision, movement through pay bands is based on performance. Base annual salary is just one component of Precision’s total compensation approach.

We currently work in a hybrid model and require staff to work in the office 50% of working days each month.

Precision is an equal opportunity employer.
