• Proficiency in Figma or similar design and wireframing tools.
• Strong skills in visual communication, creativity, and user journey mapping.
• Understanding of the product development lifecycle and collaboration with development teams.
• Basic HTML/CSS knowledge.
• Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset.
• Bachelor’s degree in Design, HCI, Digital Media, or a related discipline (or equivalent experience).
• 2–3 years of professional experience in UX/UI design.

Nice to have:

The team

You’ll join our R&D team, which is divided between Software Engineering and Product Management. The team is led by Caroline Drew (Head of Product) and currently includes two Product Managers. We are now looking for a UI/UX Designer to complement this collaborative and cross-functional group.

OneFile has around 80 employees, organised across Client Success, Operations & Delivery, Sales & Marketing, and R&D.

We are a small, agile team that values growth, creativity, and autonomy — giving you plenty of opportunities to shape your work and have a visible impact.
