Job Description
Responsibilities:–
- Collaborate closely with the entire project team — Product, Engineering, and stakeholders — to develop a comprehensive understanding of the project scope, infrastructure, and user needs.
- Review existing provision and develop new consolidated information architecture and flows based on core user tasks; user testing and iterating with regular user feedback.
- Understand and map current editorial workflows, identify pain points, and design solutions that improve usability and support smoother workflow transitions.
- Create design thinking and user understanding documents that demonstrate how existing functionality will be extended and mapped to meet user needs — transforming initial concepts into ready-to-ship features.
- Produce UX design and information architecture that meet the needs of the key user groups, working within the Elsevier design system.
- Build prototypes and define key user flows for testing and feedback, managing fast iterations based on regular user input.
- Define the portal’s look and feel using Elsevier design libraries and existing patterns, creating new components and patterns where needed.
- Develop a strategy for migrating existing workflows to the new system as part of a continuous delivery approach.
- Measure user feedback post-launch and work with the Product Manager to scope and plan for future phases.
Requirements:–
- A portfolio demonstrating design experience covering User Research, UX, and UI design, with 12-15 years of experience in enterprise systems.
- Proven experience in front-end UX/UI design for complex, data-rich platforms; experience with academic, editorial, or similar professional user groups is a bonus.
- Experience wire-framing, prototyping, and creating detailed, customer-focused designs, including knowledge of customer journey mapping techniques.
- High proficiency in Figma (Figma Make + AI approaches to design & development): able to produce polished UX flows, design concepts, high-fidelity designs, and interactive prototypes.
- Excellent working knowledge of accessibility guidelines (WCAG) and demonstrable ability to produce WCAG 2.2 AA-compliant designs.
- Strong skills in user research and user testing, with hands-on experience running sessions and incorporating feedback into design iterations.
- Ability to interpret user analytics and research data, adopting a data-driven approach to creative problem-solving.
- Comfortable with both tactical and strategic UX work — able to zoom in on interaction detail and zoom out to consider broader information architecture and system design.
- Experience applying an incremental product design process in an Agile environment.
- Experience using and contributing to pattern libraries and design systems (experience with the Graphene design system or Salesforce Experience Cloud is advantageous).
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to articulate design concepts to a range of audiences and communicate persuasively at a strategic level.
- Ability to work collaboratively with diverse, global, cross-functional and cross-cultural teams.
- Enthusiasm for joining a collaborative UX team with a human-centred approach.
Good to have
- Experience designing AI-powered products or AI-assisted workflows.
- Experience using AI in your design process, such as rapid prototyping, vibe coding, Spec-Driven Development (SDD), or similar approaches.
- Experience contributing to design systems
