About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Champion our branded salon app within your team, utilising modern workflows and user-centric thinking to design impactful solutions that directly address our clients' evolving needs.
Work in a product engineering environment, working closely with an engineering team to ensure what was shipped is meeting customer needs.
You’re comfortable talking to customers, testing prototypes, and iterating on designs until you’re confident customers will be happy with your solutions.
Challenge assumptions. While Phorest has a wealth of industry experience to tap into, with fresh eyes you will still want to validate ideas with our customers, many of which are right on our doorstep, or accessible through our very active community.
Plan, run, and synthesise user research to validate assumptions, de-risk decisions, and improve the experience.
Create wireframes, high-fidelity UI, and prototypes that clearly communicate intent and enable fast iteration.
Design user-centred journeys across web and mobile, balancing accessibility, performance, and brand craft.
Promote design best practices and raise the bar through constructive critique, feedback, and continuous improvement.
Drive the evolution of the design system, partnering with Product and Engineering to elevate the patterns into a more modern, scalable framework for the branded app.
Embrace and evolve our way of working. Bring a strong growth mindset to the ever-changing tech landscape, proactively explore, test, and integrate emerging AI-assisted workflows and design tools to define new, industry-standard ways of working efficiently and creatively.
