Senior Web Designer | Birmingham | Hybrid | £30k-£40k
I'm recruiting for a Senior Web Designer to join a successful independent digital agency in Birmingham.
This is a genuinely hands-on web design opportunity for somebody who wants real ownership. You'll be responsible for design and UX across new websites, rebuilds and conversion-focused redesign projects, taking work from initial brief and wireframes through to client presentation and final sign-off.
You'll be the main design specialist within the business, so this would suit somebody confident making and explaining design decisions rather than looking for a senior designer to work underneath.
What you'll be doing
- Design original, responsive websites from initial brief through to sign-off
- Create wireframes and prototypes in Figma or similar
- Apply strong UX and conversion principles across journeys, forms, CTAs and page structures
- Present concepts directly to clients and confidently explain the thinking behind design decisions
- Manage several website projects simultaneously and work closely with the wider digital team
What I'm looking for
- Minimum 2 years' commercial web design experience
- Portfolio demonstrating your own original website designs
- Strong understanding of UX, usability and conversion-focused design
- Confident client-facing communication and presentation skills
- Experience taking feedback and managing design revisions through to approval
WordPress experience would be useful, although this is not a developer role. The agency increasingly uses AI within its website-build process, so you'll need to be comfortable working in a modern AI-assisted environment.
