Senior Content Designer UK

Senior Content Designer needed to join our Design Team on a permanent basis.

The opportunity

We’re looking for a confident, creative and versatile Senior Content Designer to work on our client’s website experience.

As a Senior Content Designer, you’ll be shaping experiences that are rewarding, personalised and effortless in every interaction.

You’ll find new opportunities and improve existing journeys, crafting intuitive and engaging solutions for major product initiatives, multi-step journeys, campaign activity and vehicle launches.

You’ll weigh business objectives with user expectations, delivering content that exceeds both. And you’ll use language to engage, inform, guide and persuade.

So, you’ll really need to know the value the right content can add to a customer journey. Plus, you’ll need a big appetite for using customer research, data and analytics and smart uses of AI to guide your design process.

You’ll work mostly independently, with support from a Content Lead to provide direction, review your work and help navigate complex decisions.

What you’ll be doing

• Own Major Initiatives & Launches: Drive the end-to-end content design for flagship launches, multi-step customer flows, and complex campaign-driven journeys across digital platforms.
• Be the Content Advocate in Early Discovery: Partner early with product managers and UX leads in the concept phase, shaping product intent, defining information hierarchy, and solving UX problems with content before visuals are developed.
• Architect Complex Journeys: Design and structure multi-step content architecture, taxonomy, and navigation paths to ensure seamless transitions across complex digital touchpoints.
• Evolve the Content Design System: Define and document reusable content components, patterns, and copy standards within our design system to ensure long-term consistency across digital products.
• Establish Governance Frameworks: Define clear content governance models, review processes, and quality frameworks so high standards and brand consistency are maintained post-launch.
• Drive Data-Informed Decisions: Interrogate quantitative performance data (conversion, drop-off, engagement) and qualitative research to formulate hypotheses, test copy variations, and make evidence-based design iterations.
• Foster Cross-Functional Alignment: Work autonomously with cross-functional partners across Product, Engineering, Brand, Marketing, and Legal to align journey messaging with product requirements.
• Ensure Accessibility & Inclusivity: Ensure all multi-step flows and launch content comply with modern accessibility standards (WCAG), plain language requirements, and assistive technology needs.
• Leverage Modern Tooling: Work hands-on in tools like Figma and FigJam to document user flows, wireframe content layouts, prototype copy in situ, and explore AI-assisted workflows to optimise efficiency.

What we want from you

• Deep Content Design Experience: Proven track record designing content for complex digital products, multi-step journeys, or major customer-facing campaign launches.
• Complex Journey & Architecture Skills: Demonstrated capability in content architecture, information hierarchy, and structuring complicated user flows into clear, intuitive journeys.
• Early-Phase UX Advocacy: Experience collaborating with product and design partners at the problem-framing stage, shaping the solution before high-fidelity design work starts.
• Design Systems & Governance Experience: Practical experience developing, documenting, or applying content design system components, style guidelines, and governance processes.
• Strong Data Literacy: Comfortable using analytics, conversion metrics, and user research findings to steer content decisions and evaluate performance.
• Cross-Discipline Alignment: Skilled at collaborating autonomously with stakeholders across product, marketing, and brand to align on goals and resolve conflicting priorities.
• Figma & Prototyping: Hands-on experience working directly inside Figma and modern collaborative tools to prototype content alongside UX/UI designers.
• Accessibility Expertise: A thorough working knowledge of digital accessibility, screen-reader compatibility, and inclusive language principles.
• Relevant Background: A degree or equivalent hands-on experience in English, Communications, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), UX Design, or a related field. Proof of user-centred decisions, testing or iteration.

If you know some of this, even better

• Experience working on major product rollouts or campaign launches within automotive, luxury, or high-volume e-commerce.
• Specialist training or certifications in Information Architecture or Content Strategy.
• Experience establishing content governance or editorial review workflows across large, multi-brand platforms.
