We currently have a Senior User Research contract with a Government department but often get more with similar skills/experience requirements. So please do get in touch if the below suit your experience and interest, even if not available for another month or two.

Start:         ASAP (bearing in mind vetting and onboarding period of approx 3 weeks)

Duration: 6 months

Rate:         £500 per day, INSIDE IR35

Location: Remote – but you’ll still need to be based in the UK, for security clearance purposes

You’ll mainly be doing things like…

• Planning, designing and conducting in-house usability testing sessions to support the design and development of digital services.
• Leading the usability testing process from developing user recruitment briefs through to test moderation, analysis and report writing.
• Conducting in-house research to test new product and concept developments (including user requirements gathering and early stage concept and prototype testing, research, and other approaches to ensuring the user need is fully understood in the service design).
• Working closely with designers and developers to turn user data into actionable product/service requirements that feed into prototype development, and influence product direction.
• Running co-design and research workshops internal stakeholders to explore goals, and share research findings and insights with project teams.
• Presenting findings and related design/business recommendations and customer insights to senior decision makers.
• Designing and running usability studies on paper and digital prototypes and live sites and devices to improve branded digital services and products – may include usability testing, card sorting exercises, ethnographic research, heuristic and expert reviews, and other research as identified.
