About the role

Are you a UX/UI Designer who gets excited about solving real problems for real people? Ready to create digital experiences that actually make a difference to New Zealanders every day?

Our client, a leading telecommunications and digital services organisation, is on a mission to help all Kiwis thrive in a digital world. They're looking for a talented UX/UI Designer to join their Experience Design Domain and help shape the future of how millions of people connect, communicate, and engage with technology. This is a fixed-term contract.

What you'll be doing:

• Designing and delivering wireframes, prototypes, and final designs that balance user needs with business objectives
• Conducting user research, usability testing, and feedback sessions to continuously iterate and improve your designs
• Collaborating with product managers, developers, and fellow designers across agile squads to deliver winning customer experiences
• Working across the full design lifecycle, from discovery through to delivery on products and services that genuinely impact people's lives
• Staying ahead of industry trends, design tools, and emerging technologies to keep your work fresh and effective

What we're looking for:

• 3+ years' experience as a UX/UI Designer with a strong portfolio that demonstrates user-centred design thinking
• A relevant degree in design or a related field
• Proficiency in Figma (this is their design tool of choice)
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills and you'll be working closely with cross-functional teams
• Experience or comfort working in agile environments
• A genuine passion for understanding users and designing solutions that make their lives easier

Nice to have: 
Front-end development experience is a bonus but not essential.

What's in it for you?

• Be part of a culture that values openness, ownership, and experimentation
• Work on meaningful projects that directly impact New Zealanders' digital experiences
• Join an inclusive organisation where you can truly be yourself and do your best work
• Access to excellent employee benefits including product discounts, comprehensive medical and insurance cover, and exclusive deals with NZ retailers
• The opportunity to grow your craft alongside talented designers, researchers, and product teams

How to apply:

If this sounds like the right opportunity for you, we'd love to hear from you. Please ensure your application includes a portfolio or case studies that clearly show:
The context and challenge you were working on (e.g. a product, platform, or part of a journey)

• Your thinking process and approach
• The quality of your design work
• Where possible, the outcomes or impact of your work
