The role involves looking ahead to explore emerging technologies while reviewing existing systems and processes to identify improvements, turning insights into impactful solutions.</p><p>Key responsibilities include:</p><ul><li>supporting the scoping and planning of design projects under guidance from the team lead.</li><li>working with user researchers to gather and interpret data, transforming insights into solutions that meet user and business needs.</li><li>creating wireframes and prototypes for new products, while clearly communicating complex information to non-technical audiences.</li></ul><p>Beyond these core tasks, the role also contributes to design concepts for technology products and other solutions that improve user experience, whether that’s process, policy, or even physical spatial design. It involves advocating for users throughout the product lifecycle by running user testing, gathering feedback, and promoting robust UX principles across MI5. Identifying user issues to inform decisions on technology and value for money is another critical aspect of the work. </p><p>You can expect occasional UK travel to collect valuable insights directly from users and teams.</p><h4>Person specification</h4><p><strong>About you</strong></p><p>If you possess experience in delivering successful UX design outcomes across multiple initiatives, both independently and as part of a team, this could be the perfect opportunity for you. Your portfolio will tell the story of your practical ability, showcasing prototypes and artefacts created using tools such as Sketch, Axure, Adobe XD, InVision Studio, or Figma. </p><p>But technical skills alone aren’t enough. We’re looking for a collaborative, imaginative thinker who’s ready to challenge organisational norms and bring fresh ideas to the table. You’ll thrive if you’re comfortable working across the full product lifecycle and helping colleagues understand how digital technology is changing user behaviour, and the opportunities and challenges that brings.</p><p>Key strengths include:</p><ul><li>experience working in an agile, product-driven environment as part of a cross-functional team.</li><li>understanding of user-centred design practices and how to embed them into agile workflows while delivering timely findings.</li><li>excellent communication skills and confidence in explaining design decisions and complex information to a wider team.</li></ul><p>Beyond these, the role also calls for independence and good judgement, knowing when to seek guidance, as well as the ability to help colleagues understand how technology is shaping user behaviour. You’ll contribute ideas that improve user experience across processes, policies, and even physical spaces.</p><h4>Benefits</h4><p><strong>Training and development</strong></p><p>From the moment you join us, you’ll receive full support. Your first week includes an introduction to our organisation, followed by an induction into the Technology and Product Department, the team you’ll be part of. You’ll also get guidance from Senior User Researchers and a buddy from the Experience Design team to help you settle in and navigate your new role. </p><p>We’re committed to developing our staff, and we recognise that this looks different for everyone. To support your growth, we’ll use the Digital, Data and Technology (DDaT) Capability Framework as a compass, providing guidance and tools tailored to your needs. This framework helps shape your development journey, offering opportunities to gain qualifications, pursue specialist pathways, and access tailored training, coaching, and mentoring.</p><p>Throughout your career, you’ll have access to classroom-based and online learning, our own development programmes, and external providers, such as the Nielsen Norman Group. </p><p>If you're interested in attending industry events or conferences like UX London, we'll support that too, all during work hours because your development is a priority. </p><p>As you develop and maintain your technical skills, you’ll have the opportunity to progress through DDaT pay points. This means regularly demonstrating accrediting your skills against the framework. If you fall short of the required skills, we’ll provide the support you need to get back on track, as maintaining capability is essential for progression.</p><p><strong>Rewards and benefits</strong></p><p>You’ll receive a starting salary of £60,358 plus other benefits including:</p><ul><li> 25 days annual leave, automatically rising to 30 days after 5 years' service, and an additional 10.5 days of public and privilege holidays.</li><li>opportunities to be recognised through our employee performance scheme.</li><li>dedicated development budget.</li><li>interest-free season ticket loan.</li><li>excellent pension scheme.</li><li>cycle-to-work scheme.</li><li>facilities such as a gym, restaurant, and on-site coffee bars (at some locations).</li><li>paid parental and adoption leave.</li></ul><h4>Things you need to know</h4><h4>Artificial intelligence</h4>Artificial intelligence can be a useful tool to support your application, however, all examples and statements provided must be truthful, factually accurate and taken directly from your own experience.
