Job description

Join us as a User Experience Researcher

The skills you'll need

We’ll expect you to have the ability to use UX design research tools such as User Zoom and Figjam.

We’ll also be looking for:

- Experience in independently planning, running and delivering individual research studies and an overall research programme in a complex, commercial environment
- Knowledge of research techniques, moderated and unmoderated useability testing, depth interviews, ethnographic observation, survey design and co-creation workshops
- Experience of different research approaches across the product lifecycle - inc. Discovery, Generative, Formative and Evaluative research to generate relevant insight
- Experience in working in multi-disciplinary teams with UX, Visual and Service Designers and collaborating with other disciplines such as Product and Tech
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills across all levels with an ability to champion design thinking and influence key stakeholders
