UX/UI Designer

Company Description

Digital Design at PA 

We are a vibrant service and product design community of experts, with deep specialist practitioner skills across all parts of the design spectrum – covering research, design strategy and service design, UX/UI and IA, through to content, prototyping and movement. 

We display a generalist attitude; an understanding of the whole design process, and can easily navigate, communicate and practice the full spectrum. 

We are passionate about the possibilities for innovation between Strategy, Design and Front End. We're embedded in mixed discipline teams, are militantly collaborative and believe in continual learning and supportive peer review.
