Want to do the best work of your life? Make your mark at Europe’s leading entertainment brand. Our people make Sky a truly exciting and inclusive place to work – a place where you can be yourself and let your skills shine.

“As the digital team that leads sales and service experiences across Sky and the My Sky App, we are looking for Lead Designers to help us design world-class customer experiences and help manage a growing design team and culture. This is a critical time for us in digital, as we refine and scale our team to deliver the best possible Sky experience.” - Liam Cadd, Director of Strategy, Design & Delivery

What you’ll do:

  • Lead design, from inception to delivery, for sales and service experiences across Sky and the My Sky App.
  • Help build out the internal design team, growing our in-house team over the next 12 months. You’ll help hire, nurture, stretch and challenge that growing team, helping them to work alongside our existing design partners.
  • Identify and apply customer insights to build holistic design solutions.
  • Work collaboratively with Product Owners and Engineers to ensure solutions address all business, user, and technical requirements.
  • Present your work, with passion and a clear rationale, to multiple partners across commercial, brand, marketing, and engineering.
  • Ensure the delivery of all solutions is well planned, risks are highlighted, and quality is maintained.
  • Work with the Head of Design to help develop, refine, and scale the practice of design.

What you’ll bring:

  • Experience of delivering digital products, services and experiences across responsive web and native applications.
  • You've worked in teams alongside engineers and product owners, thinking holistically about solutions that satisfy business, user and technical requirements.
  • A deep understanding of Design Systems and how they contribute to the overall design workflow.
  • Concise and empathetic communication skills that help you bring your peers along with you during the design process.
  • Demonstrable experience of how design supports experimentation and optimisation in a commercial and agile environment.
  • You're an expert in Figma and have experience in other related software.
  • You're resilient - your craft is important, but you can work with others and flex based on ever-changing business demands

On campus, you’ll find 13 subsidised restaurants, cafes, and a Waitrose. You can keep in shape at our subsidised gym, catch the latest shows and movies at our cinema, get your car washed and even get pampered at our beauty salon.

Leeds:

Our spacious tech hub is under a mile away from Leeds train station. There’s plenty of parking in the surrounding streets and at the nearby CitiPark.

You can also blow off steam over a game of pool or table tennis, and stay fit at our subsidised gym.
