We’re looking for an experienced Interaction Designer to join a high-profile digital programme on a 6-month contract.
This is a great opportunity for a designer with strong web design, interaction design and accessibility experience who enjoys working on public-facing, content-rich digital experiences.
The Role
You’ll work as part of a multidisciplinary team to design and improve accessible, responsive and user-friendly websites and digital services.
You’ll be involved in both live service improvements and future-facing platform development, helping teams turn user research and content requirements into clear, practical design solutions.
Key Responsibilities
* Design engaging, accessible and responsive public-facing websites.
* Create user journeys, page structures, navigation and task flows.
* Produce wireframes, prototypes and high-fidelity designs using Figma.
* Work with content management systems and website editors.
* Translate user research and content requirements into effective design solutions.
* Work closely with Product Managers, Delivery Managers, User Researchers, Content Designers, Developers and Accessibility Specialists.
* Support usability testing and iterate designs based on feedback and research.
* Maintain organised Figma files, reusable design assets and design documentation.
* Contribute to improving existing services, developing new platforms and addressing design debt.
* Balance visual design, usability and accessibility across different devices and user needs.
About You
You’ll need:
* Strong experience designing public-facing websites, particularly content-heavy, campaign or recruitment-style sites.
* Experience designing for CMS platforms, such as WordPress, or working closely with website editors.
* Strong understanding of responsive, accessible and user-centred web design.
* Experience designing clear user journeys, information structures, navigation and task flows.
* Strong Figma skills, including prototyping and maintaining reusable design assets.
* Experience working with multidisciplinary digital teams.
* The ability to turn research and content needs into practical design improvements.
* Experience testing, iterating and refining designs.
* A good understanding of accessibility and inclusive design principles.
* Confidence balancing usability and visual design, particularly for websites that need to feel distinct from standard GOVuk patterns.
