  • Able to break down UI designs into core components with reusability in mind
  • Proven time management and organisational skills, project planning at roadmap and sprint level and effective prioritisation of workloads
  • Comfortable working without close supervision
  • Considerate communication and presentation skills, able to present clearly to all experience levels

  • 20 days of annual leave (5 weeks thanks to Splash's 4 day work week)
  • Summer and Winter studio closure, 1st full week in August plus 24th Dec to 1st Jan (in addition to annual leave)
  • Extensive Mental Health support, with Line Manager Mental Health training, a group of Mental Health First Aiders, and on-site or remote counselling
  • Bespoke Learning and Development course framework to help you grow
