Lead UI/UX Designer - UK based Remote/Flexible

Are you an experienced UI/UX Designer looking for a fresh challenge and opportunity where you can make a real impact?

We want you to #JOINTHEREBELLION!

For 30 years we’ve been creating incredible video games at our multiple studios, but Rebellion is more than just games. We have our own film and mo-cap studio, we create board games, publish books, and through 2000AD, publish comics and graphic novels such as the amazing Judge Dredd.

We operate across multiple UK locations, with studios based in Oxford, Warwick, Liverpool, and Wakefield. Work-life balance is important to us, and we want everyone at Rebellion to work in the way that works best for them. So, if you are based in the UK, we are always open to discussing how we can support remote and/or flexible working options.

We’re looking for a new Lead UI/UX Designer to lead a team of UI artists and technical designers to design and deliver the live service UX strategy for an unannounced co-op strategy shooter game.

Your job will be to lead a team of UI Artists, Technical UI Designers and UX Designers to shape the vision, aesthetic and implementation of the UI for an unannounced action title.

You will be involved in building the UX pillars for the game alongside the Lead Game Designer, delivering scope and planning throughout the project, working as part of a multidisciplinary leadership team.

What we need is someone who knows how useful data is in analysing and reacting to user behaviour and feedback but also someone who loves working with other people. We believe that UI is never solved by a single person or a single point of view and that is why we want the best collaborators so that we can work together to make memorable experiences for us and for our players!

Responsibilities

• Lead the UI team, design and iterate UX and drive the UI/UX deliverables for the project
  
• Build a UX strategy for a brand-new game, helping to shape the UX vision in collaboration with experts from the Design team
• Design integral player experiences and get the joy of implementing and iterating some of those experiences yourself using a visual scripting toolset
• Drive the delivery and quality of the UI for the project, mentoring and supporting UI designers, artists, and technical designers

Requirements

• Experience designing UX on at least one title
• Experience managing a small team through all phases of the project lifecycle
• Portfolio showing experience designing high fidelity UI using industry standard tools, e.g., Adobe XD, Illustrator, Sketch, Figma, etc
• Able to effectively communicate whilst building long-term, trusting relationships with a wide range of people
• Games as a service experience required for this project

Benefits

We offer an extensive benefits package to our team including:

• 26 days holiday + Bank holidays (increasing with service at 5 years – one day each year until you reach 31 days)
• Private Medical Insurance, healthcare cash plan, including dental and Vision
• Life Assurance, Income Protection & Critical Illness Cover
• Enhanced Family Leave
• Interest Free, Tax-Free loans
• Enhanced Pension Scheme
• EAP a range of Mental Health and Wellbeing Support
