Background
UX Connections is a digital design consultancy founded in London, with offices recently opened in Gothenburg and New York. We are now in the early and exciting phase of starting a new team in Sydney, Australia and are looking to add new entry-level consultants to our roster. We conduct research in to the way people use digital products (apps and websites) and design beautiful solutions that work for them.
The role
The role of user experience consultant is split in to two areas - research and design. Your responsibilities will include:
- Researching the end-users of a digital product through a mixture of primary and secondary research
- Creation of research deliverables such as heuristic evaluations, competitor reviews and personas
- Deriving insight from this research and translating it in to design opportunities, interface considerations and new ideas for content and features
- Working within specialised client teams on-site at their offices, collaborating with complementary roles such as project manager, product owner, visual and graphic designer, and business analyst, as well as developers
- Creating specification documents such as wireframes, user journeys, feature maps and interactive prototypes and communicating these to stakeholders using techniques such as presentations and workshops
- Being a core member of our team, and adding value every day
About you
You'll be an enthusiastic and hardworking personality - someone who wants to do the best work, be innovative and inspired all at the same time. Fundamentally, you're a designer who looks at the world (and particularly digital products) with a questioning eye and wonders why they were made the way they were, and for what audiences. You may have just finished a psychology, design or computer science degree, and ideally will have a basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, Photoshop, Illustrator and other technologies.
