Written communication – You guide teams on the most appropriate written formats and structures for each project.  You create and oversee clear, concise writing

Prototyping – You lead teams, clients and stakeholders to scope targeted prototyping exercises. You work across disciplines to design, build and test prototypes in various fidelities that contribute to project outcomes. It’s also desirable but not essential if you can prototype in code to create dynamic prototypes using HTML, CSS and Javascript

Accessibility awareness – strong understanding of accessibility standards and can confidently help teams apply accessibility best practice across every project phase - WCAG 2.2 experience would be ideal.

Design to development – foster excellent working relationships between design and development teams, ensuring smooth delivery of software builds and testing.

Stakeholder management – you know how to negotiate and guide clients and stakeholders towards positive outcomes that deliver outcomes within budget

Proactive and autonomous – you can lead the conversation, and look for ways to participate and add value

Iterative Design – You refine solutions through continuous feedback and testing, ensuring designs evolve in response to user needs, constraints, and business goals

Evidence-Based Design – You ground design decisions in user research findings, using data and insights to validate approaches, reduce risk, and improve usability
