Job Description:
Content designers make services easier for people to understand and use. You could be working on a single piece of content or an end-to-end journey of a service to help users complete their goals. You will work with organisations to understand their goals, improving user journeys, content quality, and the service to deliver.
You will work closely with other disciplines within agile delivery teams, in particular user researchers, service designers, and interaction designers, as well as influential stakeholders such as service owners and policy teams.
Qualifications
* Agile working: You understand agile methodology and how to apply agile ways of working to designing content. You know how to ensure the team has awareness of each other’s work and how it relates to the objectives and user needs. You can work in a fast-paced environment, using iterative and flexible approaches to deliver outcomes rapidly.
* Stakeholder relationship management: You can identify important stakeholders, tailoring communication to their needs, and work with teams to build these relationships. You have experience representing the user to these groups and using evidence to build consensus to deliver the best outcome.
* Strategic thinking: You can understand strategies and policies, providing guidance to others on working to deliver the policy intent and the strategic vision. You know how to evaluate current strategies to ensure the policy, organisation, and user requirements are being met and exceeded where possible.
* User focus: You can identify tasks that will provide insight into a problem. You can formulate hypotheses and make decisions based on user research findings and data. You can translate user stories into content that meets users’ needs and propose suitable designs.
* User-centred content design: You can make complex language and processes easy to understand, presenting the right information in a format that users need. You have experience writing, editing, and publishing digital content. You understand how to make content accessible to all.
* Prototyping: You know how to bring user research findings into your design work and how to work collaboratively with researchers, designers, and developers to visualise content in context.
