- Comfortable using existing design systems, proactively recommending new ways to improve and extend them to benefit both the project and other designers.

- Familiarity working in a complex landscape – ideally, you’ll have experience in financial services.
- A collaborative mindset to work closely and quickly with a multi-disciplinary team.
- Strong ability to see designs through to delivery – communicating with developers to ensure designs meet specifications and can be used by a broad range of users of all backgrounds, ages and abilities.
