Do you enjoy working in cross-functional teams to design end-to-end services and experiences? We are looking for a brilliant Service Designer to join our team, designing, building and iterating services and products that span the whole of RNID. With a focus on translating and joining up user and organisational need, you will support us to deliver user-centred services to the 18 million people in the UK who are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus.
You should have professional experience working as a Service Designer or in another similar role. Our Service Designer will design user-centred experiences for complex services. You will:
Be passionately user-focused by recommending and supporting suitable approaches to understanding users and their needs. You support colleagues across a variety of roles to translate user insights into outcomes.
Ensure evidence and context-based design by collecting and synthesising evidence from best practice, research, and testing to inform your work.
Understand strategic goals and deliver work that supports them while considering organisational constraints. You focus on outcomes rather than solutions.
Collaborate in partnership with multiple teams and roles across the matrix to design the very best outcomes.
Create strong relationships by identifying and engaging key stakeholders. You listen to their needs and use evidence to bring the user need to life and to explain and influence decisions.
Prototype for both digital and non-digital services, working with designers and non-designers. You use prototyping to test and iterate designs and choose the right level of fidelity for the task.
Bring a digital perspective by being responsive to changes in technology and being able to design services that meet users’ needs in the digital environment.
You are passionate about user-centred design and placing people who are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus at the heart of cohesive, impactful services. You are confident engaging with and influencing stakeholders and involving subject matter experts and users throughout the design process. You instinctively ‘think ‘outside the box,’ striving for excellence, and you work well autonomously and as part of a team.
We are RNID. Together we’ll make life more inclusive for deaf people and those with hearing loss or tinnitus.
Our charity has been through a complete transformation, while building on the best of our past. We’ve returned to our former, much loved name, become wholly remote working, and established a new strategy, focused on reaching the 12 million people in the UK who are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus.
We are creating a radically different culture which is externally focused, curious, evidence-based, deliberate, agile, and future orientated. Our values are at the heart of what we do.
We strive to be and continue to connected to our communities, insightful and confident in what we do and who we are, curious in everything we do and passionate about our purpose.
We are ambitious and this is where you come in.
We champion the value of difference and equality and celebrate our diverse and inclusive workforce. We actively encourage applications from eligible candidates from BAME backgrounds or who are deaf or hard of hearing.
