ABOUT THE JOB
Title: UI Designer
Location: London, UK (preferred) or remote
Position: Full-Time Role
Like Digital are looking for a multi-faceted and driven UI Designer to join our international team and work on key digital transformation projects for our fantastic global clients.
We are a talented, inspiring and thoroughly lovely team who work together to push the boundaries in everything Digital.
Are you the right candidate who can work with our Dubai clients as well as other international customers?
If you are based in the UK and an early-bird who likes to knock out projects in the morning and have the evening to themselves, then this is the role for you. Alternatively you might be based anywhere else in the world and willing to liaise with the UK headquarters as well as cater to Dubai office hours. In addition, speaking a bit of Arabic would set you apart, but it’s definitely not a requirement.

OUR CULTURE
Like Digital’s head office is based in London, however we currently all work from home and from various countries and we are looking to keep it flexible. Above all, we believe in close internal collaboration with a true culture of learning. So when we are in a room together, our designers sit beside the developers, and project managers alongside finance – which plays a strong role in fostering a culture of engagement and sharing.
This means that right now, even though we might not be able to sit side-by-side, we still cherish collaboration across departments. Moreover, we challenge each other to think outside our boxes!
To that end, we offer
-
personal development time,
-
work study offers,
-
self-learning opportunities,
-
overall encouragement for you to push your knowledge into areas of professional interest that you choose.
