We’re looking for a mid-weight UI Designer to help deliver high-quality digital interfaces across Torpedo’s client work. You’ll turn wireframes, user flows and UX documentation into polished, intuitive designs that feel effortless to use.

This role suits someone who loves detail, enjoys solving design problems, and takes real pride in producing clear, consistent and visually refined interfaces. You’ll work closely with the UX Director, creative teams and developers, contributing to our design system. You’ll be naturally curious, embracing new tools including emerging AI design features, to help improve speed, consistency and creativity. You’ll be proactive, collaborative, and motivated to support both client needs and the wider goals of the business.

Key responsibilities

Translate UX artefacts (wireframes, user flows, research insights) into high-quality interface designs.

Produce responsive layouts, interaction states and polished Figma prototypes.

Contribute to the Torpedo design system - helping maintain components, patterns and shared documentation.

Ensure accessibility and usability standards are consistently applied.

Take ownership of smaller tasks and design problems, using initiative to move work forward while knowing when to seek support.

Collaboration & workflow

Collaborate closely with the UX Director to understand design intent and project objectives.

Work constructively with Creative Directors, Designers and Developers to maintain visual and functional alignment.

Participate in design reviews, taking feedback positively and iterating quickly.

Support smooth teamwork by keeping shared Figma files organised, structured and easy for others to work with.

Contribute to team coordination by helping shape shared assets, templates and design documentation.

Client & business awareness

Understand project goals and client requirements, producing design work that supports both user needs and wider business objectives.

Act in the best interest of clients and Torpedo by delivering high-quality, purposeful work and helping maintain a positive, solution-focused approach.

Learning & improvement

Stay curious about new tools, especially AI-driven design features that improve workflow, consistency and creativity.

Bring proactive suggestions for improving design processes and ways of working.

Be comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment, adapting quickly to change and new challenges.

Skills & experience

2-4+ years’ experience in UI or digital product design (agency experience ideal).

A good eye for layout, typography and visual hierarchy.

Solid understanding of UX principles and how UI supports user needs.

Experience designing for responsive web and mobile interfaces.

Knowledge of accessibility and inclusive design practices.

Clear communicator who can explain decisions and take on feedback well.

Curious about new tools and approaches - including AI-driven design workflows.

Please include a cover letter with your CV, explaining in your own words what attracts you to this role and how it aligns with your experience and career ambitions.
