JOB: Freelance Senior / Lead UX Designer @ boutique agency

1 year gig for a freelance Senior / Lead UX Designer @ boutique agency

Project: Redesign of a well-known hospital system’s website + sub-sites

Location: Remote in USA; must be able to attend daily 9:15am ET standups

Note: Must be located in the USA and authorized to work in the USA (no visas, sorry)

hi ITPers!

Our client is a boutique East Coast-based digital agency with a friendly, down to earth vibe. They’re doing a complete redesign of a big-name hospital system’s website and supporting sites, and they’re looking for a seasoned Sr/Lead UX Designer for it.

They are rolling out new websites for this hospital system across departments, secondary hospitals, and education systems. This is a complex, multi-stage rollout that involves navigation, integrating comprehensive navigation schemas across stakeholders and subgroups, and requires design consistency. There’s also an opportunity to lead the client’s digital improvement plan after the initial launch.

As you can imagine, it’s a heavy content / CMS / navigation / IA sort of play, and they need someone seasoned who’s done that before, and who can also help project manage the project and keep things on track. Having experience with academics and doctors as stakeholders is a big plus.

You’d be paired with someone more visual / production-artist sort of person, so this gig has a strong UX design focus.

They want someone who preferably has some agency experience, is super hands on, and has a good leadership presence too. A healthcare background is helpful but not required.

Must be able to show examples of content-heavy content sites you’ve worked on.

Logistics:

  • Starts ASAP
  • Approx. 1 year
  • 40 hrs/week on average (some might be lighter or heavier)
  • You can be based anywhere in the USA; East Coast hours preferred & must attend daily 9:15am ET stand up
  • Rate is $90-110/hr via 1099, commensurate with experience

You have…

  • Strong UX skills and the ability to partner with visual designers
  • Experience working with heavy content / editorial projects, and has some IA skills in the mix to help organize it all, chart out a plan, etc.
  • Experience with complex navigation / wayfinding / search within a content-rich environment
  • Experience collaborating closely with a variety of stakeholders, including executives and scientists / doctors / academics
  • Experience being client-facing and can present your work both internally and to clients
  • Experience with Drupal CMS
  • Some agency experience is strongly preferred but not required.

TO APPLY:

  • send your resume and portfolio to joanne@joanneweavergroup.com
  • please include direct links to content-heavy projects in your portfolio
  • please include the phrase “ITP” in the subject line
