UX/UI Designer

Job description We believe in the power of ingenuity to build a positive human future. We challenge where it matters and own the outcome. We combine strategic thinking, customer-centric service design, and agile engineering practices to accelerate innovation in a tech-driven world.  Why consider joining our Digital & Data community? 🤔  Join our Digital & Data team working alongside product, design and a wide range of other experts and cross-disciplinary teams to bring ideas to life through innovative software solutions.  Grow a flexible and unique career within a trust-based, inclusive environment that values excellence, innovation, and curiosity. You have the option to progress with us on a technical career track. No need to go onto the Partner career track if this doesn’t align with what you want to do.  Hybrid working - our approach is to be in the office or on client site a minimum of 2 days per week.   Work on a broad variety of projects and tech stacks for clients across seven sectors - no project is ever the same  Join other experts within our supportive and collaborative tech community through knowledge-sharing and peer-level support, coaching and mentoring  Deepen your expertise through our a culture of learning and growth – you’ll have budget to take courses (technical and non-technical training), plus gain certifications  About the role 🚀 As a UX/UI Designer at PA Consulting, you’ll design practical, usable interfaces and flows that move products from 0 --> 1 and beyond. You’ll sometimes sit at the heart of multidisciplinary delivery teams and sometimes contribute as an individual designer embedded with a client—all while staying connected to our Design discipline and the wider Digital & Data community.   You’ll flex to different contexts—one week shaping product UI for a global consumer brand, the next helping visualise journeys for a UK services client—always focused on real outcomes and pragmatic craft-proud delivery.  What you’ll do 🌱 Design user journeys, flows, wireframes, prototypes (manually and using Figma Make, or similar generative platforms) and UI that support shipping working software across web and mobile  Take concepts from concept to production‑ready designs and iterate based on evidence or judgement and market-leading best practices  Work at pace in agile dual‑track cycles (discovery and delivery), adapting scope and fidelity as needed to meet the goals of both projects, organisations and users alike  Often partner with engineering, product and other designers to make practical decisions quickly both on and off projects  Contribute to and use design systems; keep patterns consistent and accessible.  Apply AI tools (e.g., Copilot, Miro, ChatGPT, Claude, agentic workflows, and other generative tooling) to speed ideation, auditing, documentation and analysis  Facilitate client workshops, whiteboarding and design reviews, present decisions clearly  Qualifications Who you are 💭 A hands‑on UX/UI practitioner with shipped product experience  Comfortable balancing best practice with technical constraints and timelines  Clear and concise when explaining design decisions to any audience  Curious and experimental with AI‑enabled design workflows  A constructive challenger who can reframe problems and propose workable options  Collaborative, adaptable and energised by multidisciplinary delivery  How you operate 🧠 Break down ambiguity into concrete steps; keep momentum without losing quality  Use AI intentionally to explore options faster and document decisions — never as a crutch  Share early, invite critique, and iterate with evidence  Switch fluidly between team‑based delivery and individual contributor setups  Stay pragmatic: focus on value, feasibility and the next right increment  Fun, creative, energetic and contagiously optimistic  Why this role may not be the right fit  If you prefer a one‑size‑fits‑all process or fixed toolkit for every problem  If you’re uncomfortable with client‑facing work, facilitation and (sometimes) frequently changing contexts  If you want long‑term, single‑product stability over varied, time‑boxed consulting engagements  If you avoid feedback loops or aren’t comfortable sharing work early  If you’re not open to using AI in your workflow or to actively learning, applying and sharing new tools  If you need strict role boundaries and don’t want to flex to adjacent design activities  If you’re not interested in stretching yourself, taking initiative, or shaping your own growth at PA, this won’t be the right environment
