About the Role
You will be part of the User-Centered Design team at Admiral Pioneer. The role will involve exploring new ways to understand and engage with customers, generating insights, and rapid prototyping. As a Junior Service Designer, you will support the team to embed a service design approach across the Admiral Pioneer business.

About You

This role requires a multi-disciplinary designer who is comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and across various teams with different skill sets. You should be a quick and curious learner who can ask critical questions at the right time and someone eager to develop innovative solutions to problems.
It’s essential to have awareness of the double-diamond approach and the ability to move from design-thinking to design-doing simultaneously. Excitement about experimenting in a real-life environment is key, along with an openness to new ways of prototyping products and services.
Essential Experience and Skills
- A bachelor’s degree, or equivalent, in a design-related discipline
- Able to collaborate across teams and disciplines, such as data science, UX/UI designers, product leads
- Experience in conducting and analysing qualitative and quantitative user research
- Knowledgeable of service design tools and methodologies and how these can be implemented
- Strong awareness of human-centred design processes
- Experienced in empathising with users you are designing for and problems you are trying to solve
- Comfortable with discussing and developing ideas through visual communication methods
- Strong writing and communication skills; able to use clear and simple language
- Capable of prioritising tasks when working on various projects, making intelligent and intuitive decisions when needed
Desirable:
- 2 years+ industry experience
- Expertise in Adobe Design Suite (Illustrator, InDesign, etc) and other digital prototyping software
- Interested in the start-up world from FinTech, InsureTech to mobility as a service
- Comfortable leading internal or external design workshops
- Experience running and managing field experiments from determining the hypothesis, to set up and measuring results
- Have an understanding of the back-end system of a service – the processes, regulations, tools, technology, and design system
