About the role
 
You will join a growing digital design team responsible for shaping the user experience of software used in critical, real-world contexts. This role offers the opportunity to help establish a design system from the ground up, setting foundations that will scale across multiple products and programmes. Working closely with designers, engineers, and product partners, you will ensure design quality, consistency, and usability for unique products that serve unique user needs.

As a UI Designer, you will support teams delivering mission-critical tools where clarity, reliability, and usability truly matter. Projects are technically complex and user needs are often nuanced, but the impact is tangible and rewarding. The interfaces you help design will directly support people doing important work. This is a role for someone who values thoughtful design, collaboration, and building things that genuinely improve how people operate in high-stakes situations.
