Product Designers at Future Platforms design solutions to human problems that surprise and delight both users and clients by applying empathy, craftsmanship to strategic insights and systems thinking. They feel comfortable leading on strong visual design (working within existing design systems or building new once) but have also enough understanding of UX. 

Alternatively, we are also happy to consider experience designers for this role who are endlessly curious and obsessed with consumer behaviour and psychology resulting in creating experiences that drive customer and business value. They demonstrate leadership across client projects, whether that is mapping and optimising an omnichannel ecosystem, or shaping a completely new user experience for a disruptive digital service. 

We're searching for someone that can create across multiple platforms, especially mobile devices. In this role as part of the FP team, you will be working closely with BA's/Product managers & strategists, other designers and developers located in London or Belfast. You will have the ability to communicate your views and designs to different people, but also positively challenge them with a proactive approach. We believe that bringing different perspectives together also brings new thinking and the best results in the final outcome. In any case we expect our designers to engage and interact with the stakeholders, so clear communication skills are critical.
