From designing customer engagement strategies and service and experience design to architecting technical solutions in response to complex problems, our objective is to help clients navigate the commercial challenges of user-centric application design and build.

We have a smart and creative environment, driven by honesty and collaboration. We take a dynamic, agile approach that enables us to be responsive to client and customer needs.

The Role

The role requires a creative mindset coupled with experience designing services and products across various platforms and screens. You’ll have great design skills, a keen eye for detail and your work will show an understanding of the needs of the user and display a logical, clear thought-process.

• You'll be responsible for delivering expected outcomes on time, efficiently and effectively.
• Contribute to service design concepts helping to both develop compelling service experiences, and also taking evolving concepts to another level with your highly creative design skills.
• Develop visual concepts for services and products.
• Ability to communicate effectively at all levels with clients and the various disciplines within the Webantic team.
• Contribute to project conversations and design discussions.
• Work closely with stakeholders, project managers and developers to ensure their insight is captured and represented in your visual design.
• Keep abreast of the latest design trends and industry developments.

Role Requirements

• In-depth design skills with industry tools such as Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign.
• Experience in designing for a variety of platforms, technologies, screen sizes and operating systems.
• Ability to manage and develop consistent design language to guide the look and feel for projects.
• A flair for usability and simplicity above aesthetics and design.
• A general appreciation for UX principles and best practice.
• A good understanding of front-end web technologies with knowledge borne from experience would be an added bonus.

Webantic Values

At Webantic we only hire people who embody (and can demonstrate thus) our values. While it might seem cheesy, our values are core to everything we do and we consider them to be one of the most important indicators of a candidate’s suitability when hiring.

• Have pride and passion. Everything you do is a reflection of you. A paycheque should be an excuse to do what you love, not the other way around.
• Be accountable. To own something is to be responsible for it. At Webantic there's no such thing as "someone else's problem"
• Never stop learning. In our industry more than most, to stop moving forward is to start moving backwards. Everything we do should be driven by curiosity and experimentation.
• Win (and lose) together. We are greater together, in success and failure.
