Key Responsibilities, Duties and Accountabilities
UI Design and Design Execution
- Create and refine high-fidelity screens, layouts, visual states and interactive prototypes based on approved product requirements and UX direction.
- Produce wireframes and user flows for assigned features, in collaboration with the Product Designer.
- Translate agreed user flows and wireframes into clear, accessible and consistent interface designs.
- Apply the approved design system, component library, typography, spacing, visual styles and interaction patterns.
- Prepare relevant loading, empty, error, success and validation states.
- Incorporate feedback from product reviews, usability feedback and implementation findings.
Design Documentation and Developer Handover
- Maintain organised design files, components, assets and specifications in the agreed design tool.
- Provide developers with clear design specifications, assets, responsive behaviour and interaction notes.
- Work with engineering teams to clarify design details and resolve implementation questions.
- Review implemented interfaces against approved designs and document visual or interaction gaps for correction.
- Support efficient design-to-development handover and maintain traceability of design changes.
Collaboration with the Product Designer
- Understand and apply research findings, user needs, agreed journeys and design rationale provided by the Product Designer.
- Use agreed UX direction, wireframes and product flows as the basis for detailed interface execution.
- Flag usability concerns, inconsistencies or gaps and collaborate on appropriate improvements.
- Support prototypes and design options for review without independently changing agreed user journeys or product direction.
- Coordinate priorities and dependencies with the Product Designer and Product Experience Manager.
Design Quality and Continuous Improvement
- Check designs for consistency, usability, accessibility and alignment with approved product standards.
- Help maintain reusable UI components and design documentation.
- Incorporate feedback from product reviews, developer reviews and testing.

User Research Support
- Support the Product Designer in planning and running user interviews, usability tests and surveys.
- Help make sense of findings and keep research notes and documentation organised.
- Share observations and usability issues with the Product Designer to inform design.
Role Boundaries
- The Product Designer remains the primary owner of UX research, user interviews, usability-testing plans and research synthesis, as well as the initial definition of user journeys, information architecture and overall UX direction.
- The UX/UI Designer supports user research in collaboration with the Product Designer, including interviews, usability tests and help with synthesis. Overall UX and design direction, research priorities and final design decisions remain with the Product Designer.
- Product priorities, feature scope and product decisions remain with the relevant product owner or authorised stakeholders.
- Technical architecture, coding and engineering implementation remain with the engineering team.
- Material changes to approved user journeys, interaction logic or design direction should be discussed with the Product Designer and Product Experience Manager before finalisation.

- Adherence to approved design-system components and interface standards.
- Avoidable design-related clarification cycles and rework during development.
