Essential Criteria (to be assessed at application stage):
Proven End-to-End Interaction Design Experience: Extensive track record of designing complex, intuitive user journeys and interfaces within an Agile delivery environment.
Prototyping: Demonstrated capability in creating low-to-high fidelity interactive prototypes (using Figma, HTML/CSS, or design toolkits) to test hypotheses and validate user flows.
Expertise in Accessibility & Inclusion (WCAG 2.2): Deep knowledge and practical application of inclusive design principles and WCAG 2.2 standards to ensure products work for all users, including those using assistive tech.
Design Systems: Proven ability to apply, extend, and advocate for established component-based design systems (e.g., GOV.UK Design System) to maintain consistency and scale.
Evidence-Based & Collaborative: Track record of using user research, data, and usability testing to defend design decisions and iteratively improve digital services alongside cross-functional teams.
