Design Director - Accenture : Job Details

Overview

Work & Co, part of Accenture Song, is a global design and technology company with offices in the United States, Europe, and Latin America. We unite strategy, product and technical talent to generate tangible impact at scale. Our client partners include IKEA, Apple, PGA TOUR, Gatorade, Google, Mercedes, Givenchy, the MTA and more. Our approach emphasizes collaboration, early prototyping, testing, and iterative design. We seek Design Directors who see no boundary between form and function and who believe the feel of a product comes from how it works as well as how it looks.

Creating digital products is a team effort. Design Directors work closely with Product Managers, Strategists, and Developers to create digital products and services that reshape industries while mentoring others in the Work & Co Design team. Partners are hands-on and you'll work directly with them—no middle management here.

• Stay 100% focused on making great digital products—that's all we care about.
• Work iteratively on initial concepts, prototypes, and detailed designs informed by user research, marketplace trends, and behavioral data.
• Participate in a hands-on manner through all product phases, from strategy to launch to optimization (not limited to wireframes or a single phase).

Basic Qualifications

• Portfolio or samples of work demonstrating digital product design.

Preferred Qualifications

• Proven ability to propose creative concepts during initial project phases and deliver them through detailed design.
• Proven ability to solve complex UX problems and translate product strategy into best-in-class visual design solutions.
• Ability to uncover and utilize business truths and user behaviors to define a great product.
• Demonstrated ability to synthesize and present work; experience in iterative, collaborative environments.
• Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills.
• Familiarity with prototyping tools.
