At Officeworks, we're looking for an experienced UX/UI Designer to join our team on a 12-month fixed term contract and help create meaningful, intuitive and engaging experiences for our customers.

What You'll Be Doing 

• Design and optimise intuitive and engaging customer experiences across digital and physical touchpoints.
• Turn customer research, insights and data into customer journeys, wireframes, prototypes and refined design solutions.
• Plan and facilitate user research, usability testing and workshops to understand customer needs and validate ideas.
• Partner with Online, Commercial, Technology, Design and business stakeholders to solve problems, champion customer needs and help shape product direction.
• Use customer insights and data to clearly communicate design thinking and recommendations to stakeholders and development teams.
• Contribute to the evolution of our design system and help improve design processes, tools and ways of working.
