Deloitte Jobs – Product Designer

About the job

Your opportunity

This is your opportunity to join Deloitte Ventures, an exciting and entrepreneurial part of the firm – the home of our product and engineering teams, as well as our venture incubators and studios. We bring together creative problem solvers, doers and makers from all walks of life, united by a drive to help make change happen – in our own business, and for our clients. Together, we see a better future. And then create it.

One way we do this is by listening to the common challenges our clients are facing, transforming early stage concepts into scalable technology solutions that deliver faster and better results for businesses all around the world.

Are you naturally curious about the world and making things better? Our Product and Engineering teams are. We make use of the deep heritage of Deloitte and the amazing Intellectual Property (IP) within the firm to challenge the old and influence what is yet to happen. We design technology assets (ranging from tools and accelerators to fully fledged commercial software) that solve our clients’ most complex challenges in a swift and radical way through the agility of a start-up, within the ecosystem of a $35bn global business.

To become the undisputed leader in professional services, Deloitte has made innovation a centrepiece of its investment strategy. It is critical to solving our clients’ toughest problems, attracting and retaining the best talent and ultimately, ensuring the future success of our firm by turning disruption into opportunity.

Your role

As a product designer, you will work on projects from the end to end across research, user testing, wireframing and prototyping, with the key focus on providing elegant, easy-to-use designs to be implemented with the product team.

You will also:

• Work alongside a great team of Product Managers, Delivery Managers and engineers to design solutions to complex problems.
• Be used to sharing and collaborating on your thinking with team members to ensure your work is robust and effective.
• Be a creative and high energy person who can generate own ideas, contribute and promote on-going enhancements of the design methodologies.
• Be confident in balancing trade-offs between being pragmatic and visionary with design implementation.
• Be comfortable of using design system and UI libraries, making sure the design of your area compliments a cohesive overall Deloitte experience.
• Enjoy designing, testing and validating solutions to benefit the clients with the best possible product experience.

Your work, your choice

At Deloitte we believe the best impact is the value we add, not the hours we sit at our desk. We carefully consider agile ways of working, both formal and informal, that allow for the best impact for our people and our clients. Please speak to your recruiter about the working pattern that works best for you.

Your service line: Tax Consulting

Arguably the most stimulating career environment in our industry, tax at Deloitte is a far cry from tax at other firms. Here, it’s all about collaborating with colleagues at the top of their game, across disciplines, for clients who urge us to constantly push the boundaries of our creativity. You’ll find a diverse mix of people, all working together to deliver best-in-class advice. And you’ll discover a structured programme that will help you develop even greater expertise. From fascinating projects to a wealth of secondment opportunities, both in the UK and overseas, you can enjoy a broad and rich career experience.

Personal independence

Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints. This can mean that you and your “Immediate Family Members” are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm. The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process.
