The Role

We’re recruiting for multiple Senior Service Designers here at Justice Digital, to be part of our warm and collaborative teams, in HMPPS, CICA and Platforms & Architecture.

At the Ministry of Justice, we envision a future where we can keep people safe. Our service users are diverse, yet a thread ties them. They are affected by, care for, or are responsible for people who, in turn, are experiencing a vulnerable and distressing period in their lives.

Senior Service Designers at MoJ work on products that matter, with people who value design and create work they are proud to talk about. While designing for the now, they look to the future, immersing themselves in trends and constantly challenging the status quo.
