As a Midweight UX Designer at the UK's largest supermarket, you'll be crafting experiences that help millions of people shop better. You'll help discover new opportunities, contributing to the intuitive and effortless solutions that improve every stage of a customer's shopping journey. You'll get to understand business objectives and user expectations, assisting in crafting design solutions that surpass both. And you'll become an expert in testing, iterating and improving what you do and how you do it. Audiences don't get bigger or more diverse than this! We have 11 million active app users and over 1 million online grocery orders a week. So, you'll really need to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in. You'll need a big appetite for human-centred design, customer research and data and analytics. Collaboration mixed with expertise and insight is the recipe for successful design. So you'll be working with some of the finest UX and UI designers, researchers, UX writers, service designers, data and analytics experts, product managers and developers. Our secret ingredient is our digital design system. So, you'll need some experience using one, whether it's just a pinch to improve a prototype or a big dollop to shape a whole user journey.
