Day to day, you’ll be working alongside UX Designers, UX Copywriters, UX Researchers, Analysts, Product Owners, Product Managers, Developers, Testers, Customer Service Advisers and stakeholders across the business.
Your research insights will need to inform, influence and support cross functional teams in their quest to understand more about our users, which in turn will be used to generate ideas and highlight opportunities for our roadmaps that will help champion user driven decisions and improve the user experience.
Please note: This role is based in Manchester and will require you to work from the office three days per week, as per company policy.
