Hello everyone,

For the sake of your inbox, my fingers, and all of our eyeballs, I thought it made sense to drop you a single update with a selection of our live roles included.

If something looks interesting, and you would like a full brief, just drop me a note and we can arrange that. As ever, please do feel free to forward this info to anyone and everyone you think might find it useful, or who you think would benefit from being in touch with us.

This list represents about 50% of our live briefs, so if something doesn't look quite right, but you are interested in speaking to us about some of our other clients, just reach out, we can very quickly find out if there is anything worth you exploring with us.


(Snr) Director of UX and Product Strategy – Brooklyn Studio - $150-180k
Full brief: http://bit.ly/18aDLgR

At the risk of sounding overly hyperbolic, every now and then, a role comes along which is so good, that it makes us excited to be involved in finding the right person. They are looking for a Director, or Senior Director, of user experience and product strategy, to lead a very special team within the company. The studio works across a wide variety of projects, but can loosely be split into ‘branded experience’ work (which would include brand strategy, web sites, mobile apps, games, or content) and ‘product and platform’ (which would include more of the holistic design thinking, crafting services and experiences for sustained, specific use, across multiple touch points, for more utilitarian purposes than just selling products). This role is to lead the latter team, in creating platforms and products across multiple touch points.

Interaction Designer(s) – Manhattan Design Studio - $85-125k
Full brief: http://bit.ly/19vjmkv

We’re very happy and proud to be able to talk to you about one of our favourite design studios, who are looking to add some new interaction designers to the family in their brand new NYC home. We are working with these guys exclusively, so you will only hear about these roles through us. This studio represents something fairly unique in NYC; a product and service design outfit with UX at the very core. Everything they do is user centered, from inception to delivery. Every project they undertake is disruptive in some way, whether the multi-award winning client work they undertake for global multinationals, or their own self funded product IP, for distribution and release themselves (of which they invest over $1,000,000 a year into developing).


Interaction Designer(s) – Manhattan Financial Services Behemoth - $100-140k
Full brief: http://bit.ly/19vkKUd

A new client of ours, one of the largest and most prestigious financial services organisations and a fortune 500 company, are looking to make a number of key user experience hires for their design team. This organisation is synonymous with the world of finance like no other. It’s a good bet that if you ask any trader, analyst, or broker, which product they couldn’t live without, it would be the one this company is responsible for. Involved in literally billions of dollars, pounds and yen flying around the world every second of every day, and with over 300,000 daily users worldwide, this product has grown to be worth over $6billion a year to the company. And they want some new information architects and interaction designers to help make it even better.


UX Director(s) & Snr.UX Designer(s) – Global Digital Design Agency – Manhattan - $130-160k
Full brief: http://bit.ly/12dtps7

One of the best known pure-play digital agencies in New York, with more awards than they can comfortably fit in their lobby, are looking to hire a number of UX director and senior UX designer level roles into the single highest profile team in the organisation.
Specifically, they are looking for a user experience director (pitching and bringing in new projects, direct client partnering and strategic account direction, defining scope and strategy of projects, gathering requirements and defining problem space, building and managing a multi-disciplinary design team of up to 10, defining and implementing the appropriate project-specific production process, defining project and design strategy, and overseeing all design and production activities), and a number of senior UX designers (structuring and coordinating requirements capture, planning and conducting all primary research, distilling research into concepts and design solutions, creating top level IA and UX design assets, defining product journeys and flows, overseeing the production and refinement of detailed UX assets from junior team members).
