Job description
Do you want to learn user experience design from the best in the industry? This is an
entry-level opportunity to join UX Bet as a user experience consultant.
Betting & Gaming UX Consultant, London, UK. Full-Time.
This salaried position is available immediately for the right candidate. We’re looking for a curious, dedicated and
inventive researcher and designer to join our creative team. You’ll be joining ‘on the ground floor’ of our young
company and will be pivotal to its future success. Please send your CV with a short covering letter describing briefly
why you’re interested in this challenge, to [email protected] with the subject line “Betting & Gaming UX Consultant”
Background
UX Bet is the betting and gaming brand of digital design consultancy UX Connections – founded in March 2013 and
the project of Chris Sainsbury, a UX Consultant and Professor at New York University who has worked in London and
New York over the past 10 years. We conduct research in to the way people use digital products (apps and websites)
and design beautiful solutions that work for them. UX Bet is our brand focused on the uniquely complex, technical and
challenging UX design for sports, betting and gaming products, as we have developed a specialism in this area.
The role
The role of user experience consultant is split in to two areas – research and design. Your responsibilities will include:
- Researching the end-users of sports and betting products through a mixture of primary & secondary research
- Creation of research deliverables such as heuristic evaluations, competitor reviews and personas and
developing an expertise and specialism in the industry
- Working within specialised client teams on-site at their offices, collaborating with complementary roles such as
project manager, product owner, visual and graphic designer, and business analyst, as well as developers
- Creating specification documents such as wireframes, user journeys, feature maps and interactive prototypes
and communicating these to stakeholders using techniques such as presentations and workshops
- Being a core member of our team, and adding value every day (work for other industries is also likely)
About you
You’ll be an enthusiastic and hard working personality – someone who wants to do the best work, be innovative and
inspired all at the same time. Fundamentally, you’re a designer who looks at the world (and particularly digital products)
with a questioning eye and wonders why they were made the way they were, and for what audiences. You may have just
finished a psychology, design or computer science degree, and ideally will have a basic knowledge of HTML, CSS,
Figma and other technologies. You’ll love sport, and be open to learning about how the betting and gaming industry
works on the inside.
