UX/UI Designer

Own UX/UI design for a premium Australian brand's new website build. This 6 month full time contract is embedded within an Agile squad, giving you full design ownership and end to end delivery responsibilities.

The King Difference

You will work hands on within a self managed Agile squad, owning the design system, driving the user experience across a brand new website, and collaborating directly with developers to deliver the final product. You will partner closely with Brand and Marketing to translate creative vision into commercially effective design, QA the front end against your specifications, and use AI powered design tools to accelerate creation without sacrificing quality.

What You Will Own

• Design System Ownership - Build and maintain a scalable component library, patterns, tokens and documentation, producing clear specifications that developers can build from without ambiguity.
• Mock ups, Prototypes & Iteration - Create and refine high fidelity designs throughout the project, using AI powered tools to accelerate exploration and produce interactive prototypes for rapid validation.
• Brand & Marketing Partnership - Translate brand guidelines and campaign objectives into cohesive website design, aligning on content requirements and balancing creative ambition with commercial performance.
• Agile Squad Delivery - Participate in Agile ceremonies, coordinate closely with developers, QA the front end against designs, and unblock the team so design intent is preserved in production.
• Customer Journey & CRO - Analyse GA4, heatmaps and session recordings to identify friction, design and prioritise A/B tests, and feed conversion learnings back into the design system and roadmap.

Who You Are

You are a UX/UI designer who moves fast, thinks commercially, and takes genuine pride in the quality of what ships.

You will likely come from a UX/UI, experience design or CRO background within a commercially driven eCommerce or digital retail environment. What matters most is your ability to own the design system, collaborate deeply with developers, and deliver experiences that are as commercially effective as they are beautiful.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in UX, experience design, or CRO within eCommerce or digital retail, with demonstrable commercial outcomes including conversion lifts and revenue impact.
• Fluency with AI powered design and productivity tools (Claude, ChatGPT, v0, Bolt, Lovable, Midjourney or equivalent) - active daily use, not just awareness.
• Data driven mindset - comfortable with GA4, heatmaps and session recordings, and able to translate data into actionable insight and run A/B tests.
• Proven experience briefing development teams with annotated prototypes and acceptance criteria.
• Excellent stakeholder communication skills - confident presenting to C suite, challenging assumptions and building consensus across Marketing, Retail, Tech and Brand.
• Experience with Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFCC) and/or Shopify desirable.
• Familiarity with headless CMS such as Contentful desirable.
• Background in furniture, luxury or considered purchase retail is advantageous.
