We are the AA. And we keep everyone’s show on the road. There for our customers wherever and whenever they need us, we’re always ready for anything. That’s why, for over 100 years, we’ve continued to evolve and adapt. Today, as the nation’s number one motoring organization, we offer a range of excellent products and services to millions of customers.

 

This is the job:

Reporting directly to the Digital Experience Design Lead, you will work alongside, and collaborate with, other talented designers, editors, product owners and developers to deliver an excellent customer experience.

You’ll play a key role in designing the user experience of our apps, working end-to-end from product discovery right through to solution design.

You will need to test and validate the experiences you design and can call on a variety of methods to do so – including analytics, split-testing, remote user testing, call listening, customer feedback and lab studies. Your portfolio of outstanding design work must demonstrate this iterative, user centred approach to continuous improvement.

We are investing significantly in our digital portfolio, and you will play a key role in transforming our digital customer journeys.  You will join a growing team of talented designers and editors, working in a central London location. This role is a great opportunity to be involved in defining the future of a truly innovative, market-leading product and delivering a great experience for our customers.
