Responsibilities

ABOUT THE ROLE:

As a UX/UI Designer at Informed Solutions, you will play a pivotal role in leading and delivering user-centred designs that make the world a healthier, safer, and more sustainable place.
Your expertise will drive the design of complex, user-centred solutions across the public sector. You will also be responsible for setting the vision for the UCD discipline internally, ensuring we champion best practices both within our organisation and with our clients. You’ll be committed to fostering a culture of collaboration and integrity, thriving in a multi-disciplinary environment.
As a UX/UI Designer, you will have experience making strategic design decisions (ideally within a public sector environment, using GDS principles) and be able to clearly demonstrate how you have led and coached others. Your role will involve driving the creation of sustainable, scalable, and accessible design practices that align with client needs, while continuously raising the bar for design excellence.

ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES:

This is a varied role, which will need you to show adaptability, ambition and an open mindedness to working within our fast-paced agile environment.

As a UX/UI Designer you will be:

  • Lead the design of innovative, user-centred solutions across private and public sector projects, keeping users at the heart of the process.
  • Collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams, including user research, service design, content design, and interaction design, to deliver seamless experiences.
  • Advocate for user needs with internal teams, clients, and wider stakeholders, influencing decision-making.
  • Work across all phases of the delivery lifecycle (discovery to live), adapting methods to each project phase.
  • Partner with technical consultants and developers to embed user-centred practices while considering technical constraints.
  • Design accessible digital experiences, from low-fidelity wireframes to high-fidelity UI designs, using and evolving our design system.
  • Create reusable UI assets and common design patterns to drive consistency and efficiency.
  • Prototype using tools such as Figma, InVision, and Sketch, and build rich interactive prototypes with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Nunjucks (GDS prototyping toolkit).
  • Mentor and coach early career colleagues, strengthening our UCD community and supporting future growth.
  • Contribute to evolving Informed’s UX capabilities by refining methodologies and driving quality improvements
