Edinburgh, United Kingdom Wood Mackenzie Full time

Company Description

We help the world see new possibilities and inspire change for better tomorrows. Our analytic solutions bridge content, data, and analytics to help business, people, and society become stronger, more resilient, and sustainable.

**Job Description**:
We’re looking for a Midweight Product Designer to join our team and continue to rethink how our customers interact with and consume data within the energy industry. You’ll have the support of the team but the autonomy to conceptualise new ideas as well as contributing back to our bespoke design system and validating your work with our customers themselves. We’re looking for someone who’s upbeat, curious and is hungry for data, insight, and trying new things to get to great solutions. You’ll carry out research and exploration with customers and stakeholders, turning what you learn into new ideas for our product. You may lean more towards UX and information architecture, or maybe you’re more passionate around designing beautiful UI and interactions - our team welcome a range of profiles and we’re interested in hearing from you.

Our design team works across our offices in Edinburgh and London, with colleagues around the globe. Wood Mackenzie's ongoing digital transformation aims to redefine how customers interact with our comprehensive, industry-leading data, so if you fancy a challenge, we have lots of very interesting design tasks to get your teeth into. We work with the latest technologies, so you can expect to collaborate with designers in Figma and see developers working in React. We’re not afraid to challenge our own assumptions, iterating on different ways of working just as we would products for our customers.

The Design team operates as part of the Product organisation, forming critical partnerships with every function. We want to make sure that Wood Mackenzie’s digital products are led by customer insight and inspiration. We work across a range of digital products, embedded in cross-functional agile teams, while collaborating as a core design team to give and receive feedback, share best practices and pool our knowledge (and have fun).

- Deliver high quality, well thought out designs grounded firmly in an understanding of the customer and the business
- Deeply understand customers, to deliver best in class, innovative and elegant user experiences
- Collaborate with product owners and other key stakeholders to ensure product decisions are informed by user insights
