Shape bold UI vision, elevate craft at scale, and influence how millions of customers experience digital products every day.

🎨 Web-first UI focus with strong motion & interaction design


Organisation

Bring your design craft and strategic thinking to the next level at a well-established, purpose-led organisation with a significant digital footprint. You’ll be working within a mature, well-funded digital environment where design has genuine influence and a seat at the table. Operating in an agile delivery model, you’ll collaborate with experienced product, engineering, research and content leaders across a complex web ecosystem. The work is challenging, meaningful, and highly visible — with plenty of scope to shape standards, direction and long‑term impact. Flexibility, balance and a strong people‑first culture are not just talked about here; they’re actively supported.


Right Candidate

Hello there, UI craft leader. You bring exceptional strength in web UI, interaction and motion design, with a portfolio that shows purposeful animation used to enhance clarity, usability and brand. You know how to translate strategic intent into elegant, scalable experiences, balancing creative ambition with enterprise realities. Comfortable setting vision and narratives while staying close to craft, you lead through influence, mentorship and credibility, with a strong grasp of design systems, accessibility and experience architecture.


About the Job

This is a senior individual contributor role focused on setting the benchmark for UI excellence across a large web ecosystem. You’ll shape experience architecture, guide UI standards, and ensure consistency, accessibility and quality across multiple digital initiatives.

Working closely with design systems, content, research, product and engineering partners, you’ll influence enterprise‑level decisions and ensure UI design aligns to both customer needs and business outcomes.


Key Responsibilities

* Strategic UI Leadership: Define and communicate a clear, compelling vision for UI and interaction design that aligns to enterprise strategy and delivers measurable customer impact.
* Experience Architecture: Guide UI design across multiple initiatives, ensuring scalable patterns, cohesive architecture and high‑quality execution across the web ecosystem.
* Craft, Quality & Accessibility: Set and uphold best‑in‑class standards for UI craft, motion, interaction and accessibility, embedding inclusive design principles across all outputs.
* Coaching & Community Leadership: Mentor senior and mid‑level designers, lead communities of practice, and actively uplift UI capability through feedback, critique and shared learning.
* Design Systems & Platforms: Partner closely with design systems, content and accessibility teams to ensure consistent adoption of tokens, components and frameworks, and to evolve platforms based on real delivery insights.
