About this role

We're seeking a charismatic design leader to join our team at Amazon Development Centre (London) Limited. As a Senior Design Strategist, you'll be responsible for identifying, defining, and planning opportunities that have a meaningful impact on our customers' lives.

You'll work closely with senior leaders to develop and obtain buy-in for your ideas, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to bring concepts to life. Your ability to navigate ambiguity and generate divergent concepts will be essential in driving the design process.

  • Work with ambiguity and generate divergent concepts, exploring broad themes and finding compelling nuggets to go deeper.
  • Bring concepts to life through various mediums, including prototypes, motion, video, high-fidelity visuals, and physical form factors.
  • Create, track, and communicate project information with teams and stakeholders.
  • Plan large-scale design efforts, including defining outcomes, deliverables, schedules, resourcing, and budget.
  • Digest a lot of information, make sense of it, and turn it into meaningful experiences for our customers and business.
  • Develop and maintain a deep understanding of industry trends, customer needs, and competitive landscape to inform design strategy.
  • Work across design and Amazon to create strong relationships with senior leadership and stakeholders.

You're comfortable working with ambiguity and generating divergent concepts, exploring broad themes and finding compelling nuggets to go deeper.

You excel at crafting new product and service concept development strategies by immersing yourself in customer needs, market landscape, and business capabilities.

Through this, you're able to explore scenarios and elevate seeds of ideas into opportunities that excite our team and leaders.
