Lead UX Designer
Who we are
Tactel is a digital interaction studio based in Malmö but working with clients across the globe. We contribute with insights, design, and technology to help our clients build stronger connections with their customers. We partner with clients from the very beginning, helping them solve complex problems and uncover new business opportunities. In order to create a great service you must first understand its purpose and its audience. This is where you come into the picture!
The Tactel design team
The Tactel design team is a cheerful and passionate group of over 20 designers, possessing a wide range of skills. We work on both projects and products, collaborating closely with other designers and developers, all guided by Tactel’s strong culture of kindness, empathy, and knowledge sharing. This approach ensures we are always learning from each other, sparking new ideas, upholding high design standards, and discovering the latest tools and trends together.
Your responsibilities
As a Lead UX Designer at Tactel, you will lead the design of both new and existing products and services. You will take an active role in design work, leading, coaching and challenging your fellow designers. You will also prepare and lead customer workshops, both in-person and remotely, with clients around the world. There are two main goals of these workshops: to guide participants in co-creating innovative solutions, and to gain the customer insights needed to design the best solutions for their business (in most cases an international airline).
In this role, understanding and conveying the “bigger picture” to all stakeholders is key, but you’ll also get the chance to work hands-on with design details based on your background. Your work will span the entire design process, from brainstorming and developing concepts for innovative new services to leading the design of digital products for clients like a major international airline. Your role will also include offering your UX expertise and support in sales situations.
What you need to have to succeed in this role:
- 5 + years of documented experience of recent UX design skills
- Proven experience leading design teams and projects
- Documented experience in user-centred activities such as service design, interviews, and user testing
- Strategic skills and the ability to understand and meet client goals
- Experience in planning and leading remote and live workshops, in international environments
- Ability to explain design and concepts clearly and convincingly for all kinds of audiences
- Leadership skills to be able to motivate and lead your team in the concept-creation phase
- Native or bilingual English
- Willingness to travel internationally
Perks we offer
Besides great coworkers, challenging and rewarding work and an inspiring international environment, we also offer the following perks and benefits:
- Flexible working hours
- 30 days of vacation + compensation for overtime & travel time
- Pension plan and insurances
- Breakfast and fruit every day and unlimited amounts of coffee
