JOB PURPOSE

As a UX Designer, you lay the foundation for fantastic end-to-end user experiences. You have a passion for complex challenges and are eager to transform them into beautiful and smart digital products.

• Create simple prototypes (and validate them with users if needed).
• Present your work to clients and stakeholders and implement input and feedback.
• Work hand in hand with UI designers to shape the final user experience.
• Conduct user research to validate your methods and ideas.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• More than 5 years of experience as a UX Designer in an agency or with a well-known brand.

• Experience collaborating in multidisciplinary teams.
• Ideally experience in the banking and finance industry.
• Fluent English and German skills.

WE OFFER

• An excellent salary based on your experience and equal pay policy.

• Above-average social benefits and support for mental health.
• 25 paid vacation days with the option to take unpaid leave.
• We celebrate project and team successes together and also enjoy a spontaneous cool drink together.
• You can choose between the spacious and accessible location in Zurich; in Bern, you will find a small but fine and fully equipped office where you can work in peace.
• A reputation for good work. DEPT® has been a certified B Corp® since 2021 and has been named "Agency of the Year" at both the Lovies and the Webby Awards.

WHO ARE WE?

We are pioneers at heart. What does that mean? We always look forward and think about what we can create tomorrow that doesn’t exist today. We are digitally born and represent a new agency model with deep capabilities in technology and marketing. That’s why we hire curious, self-motivated, and talented people who never stop innovating.

Our culture is big enough to cope and small enough to care. That means we are big enough with people in over 30 countries to provide you with the best tools, global opportunities, and benefits to help you thrive. At the same time, we act small by investing in you, your growth, and your team and giving you the autonomy to solve our clients’ problems no matter where in the world you are.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION

At DEPT®, we are proud to create an inclusive workplace where everyone has an equal chance to succeed. We actively strive to recruit, develop, promote, and retain talented people from diverse backgrounds with different skills and perspectives.

Are you unsure if you meet all the qualifications? Apply and let us decide! Studies show that women and members of underrepresented groups often hesitate to apply if they believe they do not meet all the requirements, even though they actually do. We believe in giving everyone a fair chance to shine.

We also encourage you to contact us and discuss possible adjustments we can make to support you during the application process and your time with us.
