About you
We’re looking for someone with the following skills, knowledge and experience:
You’ll be able to showcase previous content work. Please include samples that show a breadth of experience across a range of content types. You may wish to show us content you've created for user interfaces, microcopy, user education, direct or transactional emails, style guides or product launch content.
You'll have experience of both high-level content design work (e.g. information architecture, content strategy) and low-level (writing microcopy). This role involves both and you’ll need to know how to combine this to create great end-to-end experiences.
You’ll have solid research skills – comfortable interviewing people and gathering feedback via surveys or doing IA type research (e.g. card sorting, affinity mapping). We expect content designers to be able to do research to assess comprehension.
You'll have a view, based on your previous experience, on what works and what doesn’t when it comes to consumer facing products and how that impacts product interaction design.

Proven experience delivering a high standard of output in a large enterprise.
Advanced skills in tools like Figma and FigJam.
