UX/UI Designer

You’re a skilful UI designer and UX lies at the heart of everything you do. You live, eat and breathe apps and are always scouring the latest trends on design blogs and Dribbble. You’re fluent with Sketch, and enjoy both rapid prototyping and robust prototyping tools like Balsamiq and Axure. You get warm and fuzzy inside when you see slick, subtle or elegant use of interaction design either in previews or in production. You love the challenge of balancing left brain UX and right brain UI tasks as you systematically work through: Information Architecture, User Experience, Interface Design and Interaction Design.

We’re looking for a designer who has what it takes to keep up with a fast-paced environment. Agile on their feet, able to translate vision to reality and keen to work, learn and grow alongside a growing team of very talented and ambitious designers and developers.

You enjoy organised working structures (Trello, Invision) and are acquiring a taste for the agile way of working. You have a proven track record and have examples of your best work at the ready. You’re a great communicator and have mastered the art of interfacing with clients over email and the phone. You possess above-average time management skills. You have a great personality with a sense of humour. You’re someone who doesn’t take life too seriously but is seriously passionate about the work you produce. You have reliable transport and are happy to travel to town.
