My client is highly regarded in the development industry and recognised for being in the forefront of technology.

They are seeking a graduate who will develop an understanding of the product end users, whilst working with marketing and product management team. You will also be preparing low fidelity prototypes of products (ranging from paper-and-pencil concepts to wireframes or interactive prototypes) for internal review and brain storming.

Graduates should demonstrate experience in the following areas:

* A degree in Interaction Design, graphic design, HCI or related field of study

* User Centred Design process

* Design research, user experience design processes and methodology, its value and how to integrate it into work

* Understanding of how to create engaging user experiences and user flows across all the platforms

* Understanding of the limitations of web and mobile, with approaches/ideas to flex those boundaries.

* Create sketches, wireframes and prototypes to tell compelling stories

* Axure (or other wireframing and design tools e.g. Balsamiq, Sketch)

* Knowledge of Adobe design tools and front end technologies

* Agile / Scrum Experience

* Ability to do some CSS/HTML5/JavaScript coding

* Software Development Lifecycle

* Software engineering principles

This is a fantastic opportunity for an individual who is looking to take their first step in their career. This role comes with a great working environment and competitive salary package.
