Job description
Overview Ever worked on a product where the requirements were dictated to you by stakeholders? Not at Link! We believe in Human-Centered Design, empowered teams, and design based on insight. Which means you will be working on a cross-functional team who all share the same focus: learning from our customers and using that knowledge to decide what problems to solve and how to solve them. As a Senior UX Designer at Link, you will drive design execution for our cornerstone B2B platform product —including designing products, experiences and features for our business customers from scratch or incrementally. You will work to create and constantly iterate and improve the current proposed experience on new modules of the platform we are in the process of migrating. You will collaborate with product management, researchers and engineers to identify and minimise user friction. Your goal is to delight our customers and to do so while communicating a challenging product space and information to our customers. You are a hands-on designer who is familiar with and is competent in both UX & visual design, as well as supporting user research. You will work across small and large projects with responsibility to create beautifully designed artefacts, wireframes, prototype and design documentation. Key Accountabilities and main responsibilities- Create low and high-fidelity workable prototypes and wireframes that support user testing and requirement gathering
- Create high fidelity visuals that demonstrate future state experiences to support client pitches, our website, landing pages and user flows
- Support various project delivery teams to ensure design intentions are accurately conveyed and developer outputs meet specification. This includes generating the assets required for delivery, including creative assets, style guides, mockups and prototypes
- Support the documentation and presentation of user research findings, functional requirements and design rationale
- Contribute to embedding design as a strategic entity within Link Group, advocating for human-centred design and its benefits
- Plan, prioritise and manage multiple tasks against competing timeframes

- Be a thought leader in design and be able to help build business capabilities around the design process
- 5+ years’ experience in a UX/UI design role with a strong portfolio of relevant work
- A passion for creating intuitive and easy-to-use interfaces that delight end users and solve business problems
- Collaboration skills, with the ability to work in cross functional teams
- Capable with tools such as Sketch, Adobe XD, Adobe CC, Figma, Balsamic, UX Pin etc. but be just as comfortable with paper and a pen
