Bringing Ingenuity to Life.
The role
Midweight Designers work on the rapid delivery of projects contributing to experience strategy, improvements to existing experience design systems, through to projects across responsive frameworks or native apps. You will support the Lead Designer in formulating and articulating design strategy.
You will work across a variety of clients and sectors, working independently or as part of a larger design team, on challenging and innovative programmes of work and complex design engagements. You will develop strong relationships with clients and colleagues, deepening their understanding of digital design practice.
You will contribute to all design aspects of our work, producing UX and UI artefacts from sketches and prototypes through to detailed product design.
Digital Design at PA
We are a vibrant service and product design community of experts, with deep specialist practitioner skills across all parts of the design spectrum – covering research, design strategy and service design, UX/UI and IA, through to content, prototyping and movement.
We display a generalist attitude; an understanding of the whole design process, and can easily navigate, communicate and practice the full spectrum.
We are passionate about the possibilities for innovation between Strategy, Design and Front End. We're embedded in mixed discipline teams, are militantly collaborative and believe in continual learning and supportive peer review.
What you’ll do
The decision about ‘where to work’ will be governed by ‘the work we need to do’ for our clients and in support of others in our team. For most of us, it will be a hybrid model which balances working from the client site, office and home. You’ll determine your working patterns with your assignment partner. You will be based in London, Manchester or Belfast, but you’ll usually be working side-by-side with our clients either physically or virtually. While consulting roles do require flexibility to travel within the UK, we work with individuals to make sure deployment onto assignments is done respectfully. If you require flexible working, please talk to one of our Recruiters about the flexibility you may need.
What you’ll bring
As Midweight Designer you have experience in producing UX and UI design to solve complex client problems. You have knowledge of a wide range of design tools and techniques. You are keen to hone your existing skills and learn new ones.
