From day one as a Product and Experience Design Consultant, you will be given the opportunity to support our clients on a wide range of interesting projects across the financial services.
The ideal candidate should have a strong skillset across the design lifecycle with the ability to take clients on a journey from uncertainty to impactful products and experiences. They understand how to use research and discovery approaches to gather and understand requirements and can translate these requirements into interaction flows, journey maps, wireframes and intuitive user interfaces.

Our designers play a key role in our consulting projects, shaping strategies, products and experiences. They have qualities that make a great consultant - strong observation, critical thinking, leadership and inter-personal skills, impeccable attention to detail and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
