Associate Director, XD

Apply

We’re looking for a very special someone to help as our experience design practice grows. This role asks for a lot, but you’ll have the chance to work at an agency that’s also a product company, an incubator, and a social laboratory.

What we’re looking for

We want kind, cool, talented people to join our crew. Also this:

Clear Thinker – solving difficult problems using good questions to get to what matters
Communicator – expressing complex things in simple and inspiring ways
Collaborator – seeking feedback and input without ego to make the work better
Creative – solving a problem the same way as everyone else yields similar results
Curious – the desire to explore coupled with a deep subject matter expertise
Entrepreneurial – self-starter who actively looks for ways to contribute
Experience – we’re thinking at least five or six years but if you think you’ve got what it takes then give us a shout
Good Taste – how something looks is part of how well it works

Your responsibilities

Work with clients to devise strategic approaches to achieve their goals
Spec out work for writers, visual designers, and developers to give clear starting points
Be able to communicate your ideas clearly and with attractive visuals
Bonus: Pitch in on occasional design work

What you might do

Job descriptions don’t carry a lot of weight here, but you’ll probably do things like this:

Helping to create a product or brand strategy (problem/insights/hypotheses/tactics)
Creating journey maps, working on service design or UX problems
Working with clients, understanding their needs, and providing guidance
Conducting research, e.g., heuristic analysis, competitive landscapes, interviews, leading workshops, trend analysis, and anything else that will help us understand a challenge

What it’s like here

We’re a medium-sized agency that punches above its weight with clients ranging from Fortune 100 multinationals to scrappy start-ups and not-for-profits. We provide an environment where you’ll be surrounded by talented people, art, technology, and a firehose of ideas. We encourage people to own their work and use their judgement. We try to be an ego-light crew, so we need people who are confident but kind and collaborative.

OneMethod is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive culture, one which reflects the world in which we live.
